Why have you kidnapped Greg Rusedski and stolen back Lennox Lewis from us, canadians?
 
Does a soft posh accent by a attractive women telling you that ,"You've been a naughty naughty boy." sound sexy to you people or is that just us? :dunno::1orglaugh
 
Why do you call a game you play almost only with your foot Football as this word obviously fits a lot more a game Americans play almost only with their hands?
 
Blame Canada ...

History
Main article: History of American football

An early American football team, from the turn of the twentieth centuryThe history of American football can be traced to early versions of rugby football and soccer. Both games have their origins in varieties of football played in the United Kingdom in the mid-19th century, in which a ball is kicked at a goal and/or run over a line. Also like soccer, American football has twenty two players on the field of play. Furthermore, some player position references from soccer are used, such as the term "halfback" and "fullback".
 
On my last trip to London I visited a place called Bodean's. They served real pork barbeque that was surprisingly good. They also offered a just about every sporting event you could imagine on numerous televisions. I was able to watch the NCAA basketball tournament there. Is that place still there?
 
A tough one...

Did you know that in Hockey history, the 2nd country, after Canada, which have played hockey is ... yours!

How come hockey, as a sport, amateur and professional, never gained popularity in England? How come your country isnt even able to qualify for the Winter Olympics in that discipline?
 
There is a league I think, I think its made up of retired ex pros from your country not many British kids want to play it, their time is dedicated to Football, Rugby and a to a certain extent Cricket. I think maybe its because we never have it really cold here and theres not that much Ice around like it is in Canada.

So if the kids arent interested from a young age and there isnt an interest from the general public its not going to get played.
