What's the point of football?

What IS the point to football? I just don't get it! I can understand wanting to support your country but their are other ways of doing it, i was in my local the other night when the 'footie' was on, and when someone scored a goal these drunken idiots started jumping around the room spilling their drink all over me and my friends, they laughed and then proceded to chat us up, as if we were actually interested in them, the cheek! All i can see that it teaches little children and men alike, is to be competitive, rude, obnoxious, loud-mouthed morons! (And yes i am taking the pee out of football fans)!!!

Answers:
i honestly don't know. its just a typical MAN thing! we all know men are idiots, haha!
there too much to read there, but u need 2 be shot!!! (joking) don't let another geezer ere u say dat lol
It's point is to provide jobs to the athleticly gifted, provide entertainment, make millions, and as an advertisement provider
you have a point. But I guess it is a way of exspesing their feelings for there countrys.
Have fun.
Yes
Down the end of the field, there's a frame with a net hung over it. The point of football is to get the ball in there. The drunken idiots are nothing to do with it - you'll find them everywhere.
hey its all good, but it is more fun to play then watch like
any sport.
So you can watch men play with their balls
To get your man out of the house and out from under your feet for a few hours obviously!
exactly thats what i say,

" I live in Sunderland "
well my son plays and it is the allowed way to knock someone down for him. he loves it and he's 5
well i agree with u..

but i only found 1 point

EXERCISE
Amen to everything you said. Professional competitive team sports bring out the worst in people.
I am English, I am a guy and ... I agree with everything you say!
football should be band boys and there toys ??
I really do not know, as I have never been to a football match and never will, just cannot understand why grown men get all excited about a load of big jessies running round after a ball trying to get it in the net. I will never understand all those terrible injurys they suffer which are magically fixed with that can of magic water they spray on the injury, if the National health service had some of that it would save this country a fortune, the jessies can go from rolling around in agony and back to running in 5 seconds ?
Hmmmm football
What is the point of almost anything?
Hmm That's easy. To annoy yu girlies and show how macho us blokes really are. I bet u dont even know the off side rule - do ya ( by the way I'm takin the piss too ) i cant stand football either
What is the point of YOU? Get a life. If anyone is rude, obnoxious, and loud mouthed it's YOU.

Football teaches young men commitment, discipline, cooperation, dedication, team, how to work together, sportsmanship, respect, work ethic, and I could go on and on. It teaches young men skills that they can use later in life to be contributors in society.

Before you run your mouth, you should know what you're talking about.
COME ON PPL STFU SOCCER IS THA BEST SPORT IN THA WORLD. EVERY COUNTRY KNOWS IT ND LOVES. WATS THA POINT? WAT KIND OF QUESTION IS THAT? IT BRINGS OUT PASSION AND PRIDE OUT OF PPL. IT GIVES PPL MEANIN. KIDS DREAM TO PLAY IN THA BIG LEAGUES. SO SHUT UP
I am not dignify this USELESS question with an answer but if i was i would be here for ages. 2 things about your question ; What does the ACTUAL game of football have to do with the boisterous behaviour of some and also it seems you think that all 'football fans' are the same which is obviously not true. Just generalising. Pure ignorance...
football fans are all huligans. i totally dislike the sport just because of that.
their brains are too small to think of doing something usefull or do a more complicated sport.

RUGBY RULES!!!!
i couldnt agree more!! why do these males get paid such stupid amounts of money just to kick a ball around.
come on.u should have more fun in ur life..
its intresting 2 watch once u get into it i used 2 find it reely borin but now im hooked! d point it
1)exercise
2) a hobby, like sumthin 2 watch insted of flickin thru channels aimlessly
3)ogle the players
4) get hyped up wen they score
5)d reeson dey get back 2 playin o fast is cause they're really fit! obviously us normal peeps cant do dat!
tha point is to have fun and to some ppl, it's their life! it's all they know. so tha real question is wats tha point of u and this fuked up question? u're LAME. football is tha world's sport. no other sport can EVER compare. it has so much passion put into it.
not everyone is like that.and you'd only understand why we enjoy football so much if you actually know what is going on and you have a team you support. it's like nascar. if you don't have a driver you support and you have no idea what is going on, it's boring as heck. but hey, that is okay that u don't like it.not everyone likes the same things, but you also have to understand from our side that we consider it an enjoyable sport.
Are you nuts? footie is a great way to meet new people not all footie fans are mental us Liverpool lads are the best there is
Its one of the best sports in the world. It brings people together from all across the globe. Creates jobs and raises tons of money for charity. What would you sooner have? Young children out on the street throwing bricks through windows?
It brings lots of different skills together. From pace to stamina, balance,passing,heading,teamwo. etc. Try going out and kicking a ball. How accurate are you? Enough said. Its a game of skill that each player offers to there teammates in order to get the ball in the oppositions net. As for the people out in the pub watching the game. Ask the bar owner who he would sooner have in his pub. I bet that he would defend these loyal fans that come and support his team and his pub. Ask any pub owner the question. Football brings joy and money to any country.
As for taking the pee out of football fans, well i laugh that these guys decided to spill there drinks on you. You sound like a stuffed up bore with no passion and any idea on how to enjoy yourself. So go and sit in the corner of the pub and talk about eastenders or something just as sad.
EXCELLENT!

How on EARTH can such a pointless, boring game be so popular? It's a sad reflection on the mentality of the human male. Don't any of them have a life?

OK, I'm a human male also, but I DO have a life. And some brain.
