- What up everyone! I decided to make a pretty decent overview on the differences between American Football in Germany and the US simply because most people don't know. Thanks for watching and as always, COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS!

Thank you so much! The amatuer nature of playing is what I admire the most in Europe, I have only ever played Semi Pro here in the Portland area, for 5 seasons and I've paid a player fee, bought my own gear, all transport costs to away games, some as far as 5 hour drive up north of Seattle, I am thankful to my Prius. It is nice to see that Div3 is approximately GFL1, I had not actually seen a comparison and wasn't sure where the top teams in Europe would fall in US system. It emboldens me now to know that it is possible for me to make a mark in the GFL even with just Semi Pro training. I know I might not actually ever be an import because I have actual NCAA experience but there are multiple paths, I mean... Not everyone in the NFL was drafted.
This summer is the soccer worldcup again. You absolutely need to go to public viewing during your time in Germany.
Spark0fHope ? Yeah!
Upvote this comment, he needs to see it.
rip
lets goo!!!!!
Conner Sullivan I really can't wait for you two to make videos together again. You're always super motivational and fun to watch. 😊
FlemLo brought me here, I have to say, I am loving it.
Here from FlemLo Raps' channel. I just wanted to offer my props and respect. Your story is inspirational. Not in the fake, Hollywood, we get everything we want just because we want it way. Rather, you took the hand you were dealt, and played life like it should be played... You bluffed, called, raised, then went all in... knowing that you only get 1 hand to play. Appreciating your blessings, yet working and fighting for everything coming to you. You are not a product of your circumstances, but rather a testament to the human spirit. I wish you all the best.
It is a pleasure to me, that you always talk so positiv about Germany. Thank you...
Last summer I went to a Clemson football camp and there was a group of kids from Germany there, it was really cool
Oh man... Can´t wait to see your videos here in Germany again :D That´s a blessing for me bro :)
love your videos brother! I play semi pro here in the states. sounds very similar to the level that you're at as I watch these videos. I truly appreciate you sharing all of these things and showing the WORLD what youre doing! keep shining!! you rock!
I heard your story from flemloraps I'm honestly just glad you still get to play man. I'm subscribing
Thank you for using the term "American Football"
*it's mostly amateur for germans AT THE MOMENT but in the nearly future I'm sure it will be a complete professional league in germany
I don`t think so really. Sport is defineteley booming these days, but still parents are clearly rather putting their children in a football than a American Football club. And now with the concussion problem raising in the media, it will even be worse. I think even in the States, Football will go down long term because of the health problem..sad but true.
NFL Europe was a pro league and failed. We will most likely never see a pro football league in europe. Semi-pro is the best you can get, maybe there will be a true bigsix competition featuring Braunschweig, Schwäbisch Hall, Frankfurt (if they survive), Wien, Innsbruck and a wildcard entry someday.
Well football gets more and more attention in Germany. So let's see
@@bastianmann4936 That was before the internet really got going bro. Football in Germany is growing rapidly
Not to downgrade american football but i dont think 6.66 milion germans are fans of american football. Only 1.3 milion germans watched the superbowl. So i dont think that 5.3 milion people more care about the sport if they dont even watched the biggest game of the year.
maybe not all fans can watch a game till 5 in the monday morning
Ricardo Kakáresma only some watched it because you know what? Times different lol it was 3am while Super Bowl was live on tv
It’s a time difference from 6 to 9 hours between the US and Germany, so I think there’s a reason for people not watching the superbowl... btw I’m german and I watched the superbowl in the US, so there was probably more than 1.3 million germans watching the superbowl...
Enrico Krämer 6.6 milion fans and the average attandance for a gfl game is 1600 ? 4th division soccer has higher numbers than that. Ice-hockey , basketball and handball has higher attandences than american football and those 3 sports would never claim to have 6.66 milion fans in germany.
Hey man saw your story. Hope you have a great year and God bless
Great Video Silas, cant wait to see you back in Marburg !!
U inspired me to keep trying to get better at playing football
Hope you'll come back many many more years to germany. You're definetly a great person to have in the GFL.
Your story is super inspirational
love your videos, especially when you and Conner are together. Has he signed with a team yet or is it still a surprise. I have not seen anything on his channel.
I absolutely love your story. You are a true inspiration. Thank you-d-
Dear Silas hi I'm a current Nhaa football baller and may I say you got mad skills and focus keep it up
Nice video as always
You should also do a video with Nick Alfieri aka Nalf from Schwäbisch Hall Unicorns
You also might want to mention that the teams here do assist imports with housing, mobility (cars, public transportation) and they get health care, too. (At least as far as I know) But maybe that's a topic for a whole new video^^
Good write down. Finally someone who can list cultural differences without being condescending to either of those cultures! Have a nice day friend!
I love your videos and i cant wait to see the videos in germany :) keep up the hustle 💪
Where will Conner play?
I play semi pro football and im only 19.I’m in the United state but would like to get to the next level. Watching your videos; I think another door opened up and would love to play over seas please comment and let’s talk I would love to talk about this more!
So great to see you back in Marburg soon! :)
Heard your story, you have a sub off da rip before I even watch a video.....keep grinding bro
Yo what’s up Silas, just letting you know that I really like what your channel is all about! It gives me those Dockery vibes and I love it. Just recently my friend and I joined this local amateur team after graduation and I came across your channel at the time and I told myself this is something I want to do. If I get enough film where can I upload it and potentially get noticed? What was your first experience getting in contact with teams there and how does it feel to be a professional in another country? Thanks!
Great Video 👌 i also see you at first in Connors Videos and now i watch only yours 🙈
i like you and kate 👍😁 i cant wait to see your vlogs in Germany 😁🤗 greetings from the middle of europe 🇩🇪
Interesting shout out. I came to your chanel over Connor's chanel, too. He is a nice guy, but he always seems to be on XTC or something else, so I do prefer your videos, too.
canadian football league is starting to bring in players from other countries that now they have 1 roster spot set aside just for them. have a guy from germany on the roughriders roster this year
The thing is in germany there are no high school and College Teams like in america. There are only different clubs
May you can explain the rules of football for people who know nothing about it? I'm very interested in it, but I don't know where I can learn about it
lmgtfy.com/?q=american+football+rules
Watching games you'll learn the rules quickly. That's how I learned the rules.
Glad you live in Texas.
How about doing some videos explaning the footballrules and your gamer position. Its named football because its only played by hand, right?
Ur story is amazing
Nice video bro. What is the process on going to 🇩🇪 Germany and and playing there.
I hope that the UK league can be as competitive as the germans in the future
What do u think about Equanimeous St. Brown? Wide receiver for the Green Bay Packers, born to a German mother.
Ah conner also moving back to germany for this season?
man you are a freaking beast
Have you got in contact with anyone in NFL or even CDL, to take the next leap and at least get a tryout or something or are you ok where u are?
I used to play ball in Germany 15 years back. Do they still have the "Keine Schraubstollen" rule? (screw in cleats)
yes we do... And everyone thinks ist stupid
How many opportunities are there really to go play football overseas since there are restrictions on how many imports can play on a team?
ur awesome man
I feel bad about what happened back at your college in America. 😭
Awesome
UHHHHH Second comment :D Hi Silas have you some tips for me if I play Wide Reciever?
schnell sein, hands haben und route running skills lernen....der rest kommt mit der zeit
MANIAQ cool danke :)
I’m a senior in high school and wondering if it’s possible for me to go play?
Do I need to show my highlights??
How do I get recruited?
Thank you so much!!!
I enjoy your videos
You can just join there
Nice!
Silas & Conner on the same team maybe 👀
What does it take to make it to the gfl? Experience wise and so on very interested in taking a shot at it.
So I am trying to pursue a career in football in overseas how can I get the start I’ve played in a all star bowl game in January I’m working now but looking for that opportunity
Why didn’t you play in the CFL?
I play football in the eighth grade
How did you get to Germany for football, and how do you sign up to play?

So, as an american import, do you have to have a job over there? Or do you make enough money from that league to make a living? Just wondering since you said only imports get paid
Hiiii ich schaue deine Videos weil ich die iwie cool finde auch wenn ich dich nicht verstehe 😂💕💫
Ich würde gerne deutsche Subtiteln schreiben. Aber, es gibt leider keine Möglichkeit dafür, weil Silas vermutlich die Community-Übersetzungen beschränkt hat.
mit 13 müsste man eigentlich englisch verstehen.
Hallo wie geht es euch
Are you in Germany this time
You the best
Play for a afl team or nal team
I WANT TO GO TO GERMANY AND PLAY
How can I try out
Gehst du zurück nach Frankfurt oder in eine andere Stadt? (Try to understand this the English translation is at the bottom)
Are you going back to Frankfurt or to another German city?
Er ist in Marburg nächste Saison - da, wo er schon seine erste deutsche Saison verbracht hat.
Terras Blog aber er hat doch in Frankfurt gewohnt oder?
Zembrez ja, in seiner zweiten Saison
KarstenPS Achso dachte das wäre seine erste gewesen
american football is starting to go world wide love it
Does the GFL have a draft
Nope (it's probably because we don't get payed/ football is an amateur sport in Germany. Even 90% of all 1st- 3rd league players play for their own commitment.)
Baseball is the #1 sport in the US
Verstehst du was ich schreibe ?
Did you understand whats i wrote?
I live in Germany
You are married... I can't take it 😥😢 😂😍
divorced now :/
@@porsche911sbs oh thats bad
@@stellabella3490 yeah poor guy, must've been tough for him
Hey I from Germany can you German?
Nobody is watching or playing 'american football' here in europe...
Respects to you fuck bailor fuck their rules that’s the dummest shit ever but keep your positivity going bro and hopefully u get a chance in the NFL
Silas
PLS watch german inventions
Listen: nobody cares about "American Football". Eggball is softer version of rugby. In Europe we love REAL FOOTBALL (SOCCER).
So the Americans get payed and the Germans not? Wow...that is very unfair

Not realy XD
American football.
Ha ha what a fuckin joke.
Gaysport.
Yo man s/o to you for sticking to your gut and flipping the bird to the ncaa. I got two questions:
1. Is the ultimate goal to get a shot in the NFL or are you just doing this while you’re still young?
2. If yes to the first part, why not try the CFL route or even the arena league? I feel like the level of play in North America would better prepare you than that of Germany?
Many blessings to you and yours.
