brain mcbride -> dempsey then... I dunno, are there more players? Friedel, but then he is a GK. Easily the best though.
edit: I thought of more!! but they are surely not good enough to be on the list, never seen donovan play so I can't comment. Also, there are probably more kicks using a foot in rugby than american football

lol I copied it from some site without realizing that'd be way too big
I think its stupid how the rest of the world calls it football, what the hell is wrong with soccer?
but then again I don't give a shit about soccer, so call it whatever you want, it still sucks.
Lets change basketball to hand ball because you obviously use your hands to play the game and not feet. Who cares if there is already some other kid's game called handball ours is better. And besides there really is no 'basket' in the game its a net.
Favre certainly isn't consistant. There's a reason the dude leads the league in INT for career. He's damn good, but it's basically because he doesn't give a fuck and will find a way to get you the ball.
For me, Joe Montana, Jerry Rice or Barry Sanders, mostly just cuz he did it with absolutely no one around him

To be fair the Americans came into that thread made a slight joke and agreed that both were cool sports, it was a joke. In the soccer thread and this one the Euros are just trashing on our sport like theres no tomorrow. At least we didnt come in and call something that is a staple of entertainment in your country shit. I guess I shouldnt really be talking though since I set off the whole troll in the other thread. Sorry

I think it's obvious that European logic is superior here.
Also, Zidane, obviously.
Ok then lets rename soccer to "football with the occasional catchball also sometimes hit with head, stomach, knee chest or pretty much any other part your body than your hand, also can be picked up sometimes) I think football is a jackass name for any sport but honestly which sport doesnt have a shitty name? Sports names arent meant to be descriptive of the way they are played. Did you know that rugby is originally a form of your football (soccer)? Well man rugby is played mostly with your hands and the occasional kick and for a long time people still called it football. Wow guess that makes you guys pretty dumb too...
Basketball = Played with a basket when it first was invented, a fucking basket has no place in a modern basketball game.
Baseball = The fucking bases obviously. Clearly not meant to describe the sport at all but one small facet of it.
Hockey = I have no fucking idea.
I would try to name a good European sport but all you guys have right now is soccer. Burn. its shitty to have your favorite sport trashed on for no reason huh?
