I'm with Inderjit, on this. Proper football is what many of you here call soccer.

Of course
American football is popular ...
in America. Hate to disillusion you, but there are not many other countries where it is more popular than football proper. [img]smilies/cool.gif[/img]
And talking football, Manwe would of course play for the greatest team, Chelsea, which makes sense with his colour being blue and all. I imagine he would play centre forward with Pallando and his mate on the wings.
I always imagined Elves' sport as cricket. After all, a game that takes 5 days to play one match would suit a race with lots of time on their hands. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
