Sorry, you're Ancient Egyptian? My bad. Now let's name all the international sports that America has invented: I can see where you're coming from.
Dicy you don't get the point. Just because you invented a sport doesn't mean its not ******* stupid. I can sit in my boxers in bed all day and create sports. Doesn't mean they're relevant or that people give a **** about them.
Mr Troll, Your name is appropriate for the occasion. You're trolling yourself right now. You initially began by trying to counter my argument, but now you have realised that you were unable to do so, so you've resorted to calling me stupid. No, we are not better than you at a number of sports, but then again, we are better than you at others. But considering our population is less than a quarter of yours, that's expected, right?
The foundations for baseball actually came from cricket, yeah you know your great American past time. I suppose you're trolling but you still sound like an arrogant ignoramus :lol:
I also realised that cheeky edit of yours. In all honesty, I can safely say that gladiatorial fighting is still a common practice across the globe, and remains commonplace amidst every community on Earth. Romans. What are they like?
Yeah I changed the word "Romans" to "Ancient Egyptians". I figured that would be a more accurate allusion.
What were you trying to prove in the fact I decided to change what ancient civilization I referenced? Lol. Not getting your point.
Either way, neither the Romans nor Ancient Egyptians really founded te basis for modern sport. The only thing I can think of, is that the Romans introduced amphitheatres, which likely formed the basis of stadia. Oh, and they ran. Running is good.
I was showing that you don't know the necessary facts to counter my argument. The fact that you had to alter your statement shows indecisiveness, probably a result of a lack of foundation in your argument. Oh, and I found it funny that you refused to accept that Britain has invented numerous modern sports - instead of referring to your beloved 'Murica, you decided to counter me from an alternative viewpoint. ie You were unable to further support 'Murica.
There's no doubt that the Greeks did have a big impact. Considering they brought about the Olympics, and many of the modern field events that we still see today
Oh boy someone talking about lack of foundation in their argument when Rikki just told you how your believe about the romans and egyptians being the building block is wrong, is pretty funny. Also I never once insulted UK, adding the insult to America definitely gives you credibility. Keep on going dicty.
Remember your statement earlier dicty when you thought I was calling you stupid and I didn't? And you told me I was driving away from the facts because "I have no solid argument"? Yeah that's what you're doing by insulting America and trying to make it personal.
I'm pretty sure that unicycle comment was trying to provoke a bit of hate? Anyway, Troll. I don't want to start a war. I am not going to deny that America is perhaps the strongest sporting nation on Earth... But your ignorance pissed me off a bit, considering, as Terra said, Cricket is a far larger sport than any American sport. (I'm pretty sure that the ICWC game between India and Pakistan attracted between 1 and 1.5 billion viewers.) I'm going to leave this argument as it is lol. Didn't mean any respect. I guess I got a little mad. Peace.
Exclusive image of travel to the India Pakistan cricket game! I wonder why they're entertained by such a stupid game.
