My dad explained this one to me with a little story once. It sounded something like this.
One day, a French soldier asked his commanding officer what the reason was behind the British troops' red uniforms. The officer explained that the reason why the Brits wore red was because it camouflaged the sight of blood when an officer was wounded in battle, and, therefore, kept their troops from losing morale and abandoning the field of battle before the fight was over. When the French army learned of this tactic of camouflage, he added, they adopted the idea and made brown pants for their army.
Say what you want about baseball (yawn) and basketball (Oh yeah, 2 points up. Oh no, 2 points down! Oh yeah, 2 points up - boriiiiiiiing)
The NFL is great. I like rugby, and I like to take the p1ss out of the Merkins by saying they're a bunch of girls who need to wear six inches of padding to play a game of rugby but, in reality, the NFL is tough, and I enjoy watching it.
Go Seahawks! All the way this season!
What exactly was your point? That Britain is no longer "Great"?
The great comes from the size, not how wonderful 'we' are. Little Britain, or Breton, is in northern France. That's why we're called Great Britain.
Can you break the UK down for me? Is it like 4 countries - Ireland, Wales, Britain and Scotland?
Who are the toughest? Calzaghe is such a baddass that I assume Welshman are some hardcore dudes, but those Irish are some mean bastards, just from all the decendents I know in America. The hardest dude I have ever seen was an Irishman. Scary dude.
And oh yeah, another question. When did the UK come to fruition? What is the logic between uniting those 4 countries?
Not british, but I shall take the liberty to answer. The United Kingdom includes England, Scotland, Whales and NORTHERN IRELAND....... not the Republic of Ireland

I'd say that the Scots are probably the toughest followed by the Irish
Yeah, the Scotts are quite tough. Any other people will die after one day of their extremely poisonous diet, yet most Scotts manage to live well into their thirties.:1orglaugh
I wouldn't say the Irish are tough TBH - that's just the immigrants in the US, and their stereotype. Next would come the English and their infamous grit, and the Welsh, and the Irish come last IMO.
Why do yoo briddish hav to constintly fuck with the american langauge?
But seriously, folks...
Just how prevalent is American culture in the UK? I ask as an American who's appalled by most of our TV, films, and music, and hates the thought of those being our main cultural exports.
That question's a little vague I guess, but I mean well.
