In 2006, when I studied in US California, watched the training of the Oakland Raiders and many universities and schools rugby team, but also watched the NFL football game which deeply impressed me is that the football is very popular in the United State. Whenever a NFL game, it will be boiling up in the city, the empty streets will be crowded, regardless of sex; small groups went to the game site. A lot of crazy fans would drove up on the scene 2hours earlier before the game started, with a strong rhythmic music, people are pleased to chat, drink beer, and dance on the sidelines.
I remember that a fan asked me before: “are you Chinese the same with us?" My answer is negative. He added: “here, each football game is like so, this is our new year, ha ha." I am not embarrassed by the questions of my fans but at the same time feel deeply in thought, the football in China has just started, of course, can not compare with the United States, but what is about the other leagues in China? Even the CBA, Super League soccer etc. these good sports, that operating in China can not reach the result which tens of thousands of people packed stadium every time. If NFL football is America's national sport and U.S. culture, then does China's table tennis and martial arts? In addition to some outstanding athletes, is desolate. Why?
After watching a football in preschool classes, I have deeper feelings. Just 6-year-old! Parents paid much to send them to take participate in football training. The boys like adults wore protective gear to fierce collision football practice. There are a lot of parents were watching the performance of their children in training site. If their kids have hit other children, they will proudly applauded; if their children were hit down, their response is not whether their children is injury or not, but disappointed that their children are weak. I have asked parents that the purpose of sending their children to athletics, most of them want their children to be more courageous and strong, more like a man, in their opinion, it is good for their future growth. “But aren’t you afraid of kids hurt? I asked," when they are wounded, we will send them to the hospital "Parents feel my question is ridiculous. This form of education seems to the opposite with our Chinese parents. First they don’t ask the activity is dangerous or not before taking part in it, but to the same question, when Chinese children fell down, parents will run to the coax immediately “Baby, all right? Does it hurt? Mom will help you beat it! “Maybe they could kick his feet in front of the children..... so the parents will not spend money sending their children to practice the exercise of the " the tumble ".football game.
