Sports Quiz

[bulio]

ok, this is how sports trivia works:

1)you can post either a question regarding rules of a sport ie:


Soccer:
When a refferee flashes the yellow card,  what does it mean?

or a "what sport is this question" like"


In what sport do you have to hit a ball with a bat?

Good luck.

I'll start us off:

American football
Whats a field goal?

[Loomis]

When a place kicker boots the ball through the uprights.

Golf:

A double eagle is a score of three under par on any individual hole

Well I think your "football" is dead.

Constantly going back and forth with no point to show for it.

I would rejoice like crazy too if after an hour my team FINALLY scored.

It takes alot of skill to run and kick a ball. <_< :lol: :lol:

(sorry, you opened that can of worms)

in soccer they also do tricks...and that takes some skill, plus why do they call it FOOTBALL in america? the only time u see his feet and the ball come in contact is when the guy kicks it...why don&#39;t they call it Handball?

Those tricks rarely result in goals though. As a matter of fact goals in general are hard to come by.

I do like the Pele kick and the head butt goals. :lol:
