A: Wow, American football is more exciting than I thought.

B: You’re in America now, my British friend. We just call it football.

A: Oh, right. So, I can’t quite follow what’s going on…Who’s winning?

B: The Giants are up by three points because of the (field goal) they kicked, but the Redskins have the ball and there pretty close to the (end zone).

A: Wow! What a hit!

B: Yeah, he (tackled) him so hard his helmet came off.

A: Is he ok?

B: It looks like it, he’s getting up.

A: I guess he hit him too hard; the referee just called a (penalty) on the (home team).

B: The Giants?

A: Yeah.

B: Well, here we go again.

A: What happened? Why did everyone get so quiet?

B: The Redskin’s quarterback just threw a (touchdown pass) for seven points. We’re losing again.
