I don't object to football at all. If people like to follow it that's just fine by me.
As for having a favorite, my comment stands, it's none of the above.

To vote "other" would imply some interest in some other sode of football. Not the case.

Don't take yourself so seriously.

HI Dave

I wasn't trying to take things too seriusly hence the references ...poor craftsmanship...non-consequential, insincere and shallow apologies and ... regaling us with a real or imagined esoteric code of football

I have no idea how to type things so that they are known as toungue in cheek or non serious comments not knowing appropriate smilies or references (didn't think LOL was suitable) so attempted to get the tone across in the choice of words.. better not become a journalist had I

Though i do stand by the poor craftsmanship in the design of this poll comment

(Edit -- As designer of this poll i can get away with this comment!! any one caught agreeing with me will be in big trouble!! OK would you believe a moderate amount? what about a tiny amount? well alright then none at all really)

You mean that other there are other football codes beside AFL?

Yep got that right!

What about us who dont follow it?

I enjoy the look on peoples face's when they ask what team I go for, expecting an augment about some footy team... sorry I go for south austraila... Port adelaide crows!:eek:

I have gone for four codes, can't help myself. AFL, VFL, Rugby Union and Touch.

I didn't see "who cares"

I'm sorry to offend the fanatics but I really just can't get excited / angry / upset / happy etc by football.

I can appreciate the skills involved and as a kid played some "Aussie Rules" in Brisbane.

Perhaps my lack of interest today is mostly because of the commentators whose overly opinionated second guessing drivel would surely drive most people nuts and does nothing to aid enjoyment of the game.

How do you play touch with your feet?

For those of you who who are commenting that there should be a DO NOT CARE use the FOOTBALL Whats That? option in my attempts at being a little lite hearted I have apperently caused some confusion..

I am assuming at this point I am unable to ammend the phrasing of the poll so we are stuck with what I put in there to start with..(see earlier comments on design..)

I turn the sound off, makes for a better game. No drivel.
