Football is the easiest sport to understand to the deaf.

You can watch the games on TV and understand the game as well. You can learn the refs signals and understand the penalty. But if youre out the stadium sometimes its hard to see the ref. They need to put GIANT Screens in every stadium so you know what the penalty is?
Basketball is hard sometimes cause you dont know what the volation is especialy in the NBA.
Baseball can be hard sometimes if you dont know what the argument is about.
 
It's the same for hearing people too. They don't always announce what's going on with the fights.
 
They are deafened too.

When I was at the Football game, baseball game, and basketball game, I can't hear the referee anyway. I am hard of hearing, but when I have my hearing aid up high, I still can't hear the referee.

Because the CROWD and people keep screaming all the time.

That is why Referree used hand signal and flags... to alert everyone.

That is why Coach have to YELL, cause it is too hard to hear if Coach
speak soft.

So deaf people can too play football, basketball, baseball with normal people.
SO deaf people need to stop pity themselves.

yeah unless you are not playing rvensteve was saying if you are in the stands ets i have been to some dallas cowboiys games too
 
I'd rather watch Australian Rules Football as I reckon it's the EASIEST sport to understand any events happening like foul or out of bounds, etc. I've never understood the American gridiron...1st down, etc. :D
 
Well american football is a combination of a chess game and a battle game. You think over the situation youre in. Then you decide what play youre gonna do. Defense thinks the same way too and they react to it. Aussie game you just run around like morons get rid of the ball and theres no thinking to it.
 
Do I understand the football game ?? I do read ref signals and another sports, I do read their, too. I played different sports and understands them.

Don't you pass judgement on a country's sport until you've really immersed yourself in the sport and watching the game. :P
