Why the fuck do they call it "football"?
You don't use your feet much at all.
You don't even use a ball. It's not round.
Worst of all, when you're overseas "football" means soccer. So it's confusing to talk about.
What the fuck? At least come up with an original name for your sport instead of stealing the word "football".
There must be a better name for this sport.

HAHA, that's exactly what i'm talking about.

"LISTEN WHAT IF WE MADE A CONTACT SPORT WHERE EVERYONE IS WEARING MORE BODY ARMOR THAN A MEDIEVAL KNIGHT
WHAT IF WE ALSO REMOVED 99% OF ALL THE RUNNING SO THAT OUR OBESE PLAYERS CAN FEEL USEFULL
WHAT IF WE ALSO STOPPED THE GAME EVERY 12 SECONDS FOR A 30-45 SECOND BREAK SO OUR OBESE PLAYERS CAN REGAIN THEIR COMPOSURE FROM THEIR MONUMENTAL 12 SECONDS OF INTENSE PHYSICAL EXERTION
LETS ALSO CRAM A FUCKTON OF COMMERCIALS INTO THESE 45 SECOND RECUUPERATION PERIODS"
Exactly. It's a lame sport.
It's not even an American thing.
To me BASEBALL is the all-american sport. And I like baseball.

That's another gay thing about the NFL.
Most guys who are into it think it's some kind of manly macho thing to watch it.
Just a bunch of fat armchair warriors jacking off their egos.

Came from rugby football....
Gridiron (American football) is a derivative of rugby football, and while the feet are used more often in rugby than on the gridiron, much of the game is still played by handling the ball. Both variations are still considered football. * North America style Gridiron (American football) didn't used to allow the "forward pass" and much more of the play involved foot work, such as the "drop kick" and the running punt kick. In the first rules, only the " side pass" was allowed, as long as the two players were side by side, with no forward motion of the ball, similar to rugby rules

If you PLAY the game then you are a badass.
If you just WATCH the game, that doesn't make you anything.
Nothing worse than these idiots who love the NFL but never play the game at all. But they think they are some kind of badass just because they wear a football jersey.

I played a lot of sports growing up played football In college. I have to say I think soccer takes the most skill and is the most beautiful sport. I played for years before I was old enough to play football. I learned all of my moves from soccer. I returned kicks and punts in football and I had a lot of moves from soccer.
Nothing Is more annoying then diehard sports team fans.

I was watching American football one time. Have done it only a few times in my life, wanted to see what it's all about. Saw one player's stats on screen. 5'10, 180 lbs. I thought, what a monster.

It is called football because it diverged from Rugby Football. Nobody seems to have a problem with that being called "football".
