What Cheesey meant to say, was:

Het doel van het team met de voetbal is onderaan gebied en score 6 te gaan punten door andere team' te kruisen; s doellijn. Als u het doet, krijgt u om voor een " te proberen; extra" punt door de voetbal door een reeks rechte polen met een dwarsbar te schoppen. Het doel van het andere team is het team met de voetbal tegen te houden van het noteren. Het team met de bal krijgt 4 kansen te gaan 10 yards. Als zij de 10 yards maken zij een verse reeks van 4 verslaan krijgen om nog eens 10 yards te maken. Als zij don' t maakt de 10 yards in hun eerste 3 verslaat, kunnen zij voor het op vierde dalen. Maar als zij don' t maakt het, geven zij het andere team de voetbal waar het zit. Zo kunnen zij (schop) de voetbal op vierde wegschoppen neer, krijgend het uit hun grondgebied. Het team met de bal kan ook voor een doel van het 3 puntgebied proberen als denk hun kicker de voetbal door de posten van de vlek kan schoppen zij op het gebied zijn. Nochtans, als kicker de schop mist, krijgt het andere team de voetbal bij de vlek kicker de bal van schopte. Dat vat vrij veel de grondbeginselen samen die ik heb gedacht. Hoop die helpt!


Good job, Cheesey!

So they can (kick) the football on forth kick it away down, getting it out of area.

You know, those translators don't make any sense at all. :p

Maybe I should add that it's an English presentation. I don't like to brag, but I'm one of the best English students on my school and most likely I'll have to simplify the story for the rest of the group to understand it.

And ye, thanks Cheesey, that'll be great to begin with. Stretch it out with some meaningless chatter, add a Powerpoint and I have myself a presentation.

Oh, and thanks for the translating attempt Foster ^^.

No you silly fellas, It's how Cheesey talks!

It was babel fish-- I guess we should call it babble fish. Yes, Detlev, your English is outstanding!

Here is some interesting trivia for you. The Netherlands Carillon is located on the grounds of the U.S. Marine Corps Iwo Jima Memorial, which is considered hallowed ground by all U.S. Marines. This is a set of bells and a tower given to the U.S. in gratitude by the Netherlands.

The U.S. Air Force, also known as REMF wing-wipers (just kidding) attempted to build their own memorial on the grounds of the Iwo Jima memorial... FAIL! U.S. Congress passed a law(Plenty of former Marines in our Congress) that wouldn't allow the wingwiper memorial within SIGHT of the Marine Corps memorial...(How's that for a cool law if you're a jarhead) It has to do with A), the U.S. Marines like the Netherlands Marines, and 😎, Neither one of them like REMF wing-wipers and told them to stay the hell out of our turf.... symbolic of their REMF status...The Air Force built their memorial just off the grounds of the Iwo Jima Memorial--- You can see it if you climb the Netherlands tower, but no way from the Iwo Jima memorial...

The Netherlands Carillon 

USMC War Memorial 

...And that Air Force Memorial looks like a giant rendition of the tripping mechanism of a VC bouncing betty... Vikesrule could translate that for you.

Sorry, AirForce-- I can't help it... :icon_smile:

Wow, can't believe I never heared of that tower. I don't even think alot of Dutch people know about it, except from the Marines ofcourse. Although I could be wrong in that, ofcourse.

For the BBC link, that's great. It's nearly an entire presentation, although I won't go the cheap way and just throw in some crap myself 😛. Explanation of the field maybe, since we don't play any Rugby here either. But that's a very solid base, especially if combined with Cheesey's tips.

Seems kinda weird that they use a 3-4 to explain defensive play though. Always thought 4-3 was the most base defensive formation like the I-Form for the offense.

Rockmolder.......try not to clutter up your presentation with too many details if your class has no understanding of American football. Too much info will lose them.



Just pretend you are trying to explain football to a bunch of Vikings fans.
LOL!!!
