Who made up "American Football"

I would rather watch golf than soccer.

I would rather have you whack me in the nutz with a 7 iron than watch soccer.

American football was created because someone had the fortuitous vision of creating a sport so great that it would beat the hell out of soccer...

Only in America mate , football is world wide , I don’t see you’r game like football, soccer at all , to me it is like rugby , but with padding on . And a load of razz ma tas .

Yeah the Bruts do not show up at all when the NFL hits the island. Well actually they go nuts for it. Some of the fastest sell outs of any NFL games

Probably that is right , we like a one off event like American football game , but on the whole , we are still kinda trying to make it work here.
I have watched a game many year’s ago , I could not really get into it , I felt that the game went on to long , three rivers stadium I remember and the dancing band and the cheer leader thing , was’nt for me .

I'm really old ok. When i was in school soccer was for the inferior athlete who was not good enough for the more popular sports. I would be willing to bet that has not changed.

American Football relies on many different types of athletes and body types that are required for the particular task they are expected to perform. It takes hard work, study and timing with practice reps. Great rugby players have tried and have failed. Australian rules has produced a punter or two. Some little kickers from other countries with a soccer background have done ok but the Nigerian nightmare was the best. Also the helmet and shoulder pads are weapons and people were getting brain damage from getting knocked the fuck out so they have had to recently tweak the rules.

There is even a place for a soccer player. Kickers can make a good bit as long as they don't dive and thrash.
