Football

Football
 
It seems that football is getting in the way of me studying Spanish. I've got to find some happy medium lol. I haven't studied in over a month now.

Based on his avatar, I would guess Yes. The New Orleans Saints (American Football) won the Super Bowl last year and that is what is pictured. Chris can confirm though.

American football, since Chris lives in the US. if it was soccer we would say soccer :P

Sorry, I forgot you called "soccer" to "fútbol". :)

The same happened to me with me in June. For the World cup of South Africa.

Lo mismo me pasó en Junio. Por el Mundial de Sudafrica.

Hah the world cup helped me actually. I got to learn about countries and their languages. :-)

Studying a language using a topic that you like helps a lot. :)

Studying a lot of in you home can help you.

Claro, Chris, sé que eres un gran hincha de los Saints...

Pero lo que fue impresionante es la victoria de los Eagles contra los RedSkins... (No lo vi, sólo leí la reseña del partido... y Vick hizo un partidazo de primera... todo un récord...)

(I just wrote in Spanish without thinking much, just expressing myself with the little I know about American Football... but you can ask about what I say, or any expression you don't understand...)

You can try to tell us things about the Saints IN SPANISH, so you practice. I wouldn't mind to see a week thread with a short article by you on the Saint's performance... (Or if it is not an article, at least few sentences, or a headline...)

(As a matter of fact I read some Tennis Analysts in English, and while it has its own jargon... it definitely helps me to be more and more acquainted with the English language...) (Tandon, Garber are a couple of guys I follow.) In the NBA I also read stuff on the Lakers (my team, given that Pau Gasol plays with them...)
I think talking about sports and PLAYING and practicing some of them is a fun way to learn another language... The key is to combine it intelligently... I guess, not always an easy task. Unless you have a good coach! ;) :D
