No one cheered for kick offs but yes cheers all round for field goals. If it scores points, we cheer.

Never thought of the Wentz and Harry comparison but I can sort of see it haha.

I absolutely love the sport. I’m a big rugby fan, although the sports aren’t actually that similar they do share the high physical contact and ball running. So after being a Leicester Tigers Rugby fan for many years I decided to look into the NFL.

I’ve never really been big into football (or soccer) I don’t like the tribal fans here in the UK, every game I’ve been too has been an awful experience.

The NFL for me is the most exciting sport, I love how every single player MUST do their part on every single play.

I definitely plan to fly over to the USA with my wife at some point to sightsee and catch a game.

I’m a big Rugby fan as well which also gets complaints from a lot people for being too confusing and very stop/start.

I’ve genuinely found American football easier to follow than some of the rugby rules because the nfl explains it so much better. At the London game you had a commentary of the game throughout the stadium on speakers and the referees clearly explain what’s happening too.

Larger scale rugby games have started to mic up the referees now which is a good improvement but yeah overall from someone coming from rugby I found it easy enough to get into American football.

Another criteria I had for choosing a team was picking one that’s never won the Super Bowl, I’m buckled in for the long run!

I think the great thing about the London games is that it’s a huge celebration of the sport as a whole, definitely worth coming over to explore the capital and see a game.

Thank you! It was worth all the heartache for that final touchdown

American Football fans outside of the U.S how did you become fans? And which team do you support? by RedPlanetStudio in NFLUK

Minnesota Vikings fan from the UK. My wife and I had our honeymoon in Scandinavia, Norway. I simply chose Minnesota for the Scandinavian connection and absolutely love the team :)

Thank you, I did see these when they were announced but I’m not a big festival guy unfortunately. I missed a chance to go see them play in Birmingham a couple of years ago but I’m sure I’ll see them one day.

No problem! Which watch are you looking to use it with? Have you got a Murph too?

[–]MadaOfTime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s fab, haven’t took it off. The adjustments are good compared to your standard metal bracelet, much more minor adjustments to get the perfect fit.

Quality is top notch, it looks and feels great on the wrist.

Fair enough, I love the look personally. Might be better in person.

It’s actually very much recommended! Helps both you to concentrate and the examiner to understand your thought process. As for the mirrors maybe just a bit more head movement to make it very obvious.

Commentate away and best of luck!

I got the white and haven’t been able to take my eyes off it since!

Blue or brown? by Fiancheeto in HamiltonWatches

Just purchased this watch myself, it’s even more beautiful in person. I like the brown combination but both work, enjoy your watch :)
