Oh, I definitely agree with the comparison to rugby though.
People saying American football is more violent really should go check out youtube, rugby has no steroid abuse players, no padding, same tackles, and fucking evil war dances before the games.

You call that a sport?! This is rugby for women. All the men are wearing padding so thick that a fucking tank shell couldn't hurt them.[/QUOTE]
Get hit like this for yourself and then talk to me.

It's basically like getting hit by a small car
Nice deking by the blackshirt
I came in thread expecting football.
I was disappointed.
American football has always been a mystery to me. Why are only 3, or is it 4? players allowed to touch the ball, whilst the rest are there just for tackling. seems to make it a very selfish game. I know this is going to be flames but i have always preferred rugby as it is much more sporting and team based. everyone is equal on a rugby field. Its like all american sports i find. the games are biased towards one team. Baseball is a fielders sport, basketball is tall people and American football is for strong people who don't need to be very agile.

Sorry, I completely forgot about the huge amount of English viewers. And as a kind of a comment, I've never understood why "soccer" is so popular everywhere else. The only thing about "soccer" that impresses me is the amount of agility the players use to kick around the ball. And I don't even know how rugby's played :P

Not my upload. It was probably a parent who used some shitty upload site before transferring it to youtube.
Wait, why are they picking up the ball? This isn't football!
