    I still don't understand why it's named FOOTball to rugby when you have the ball in your HANDS

    Football> Flopball

    I don't know why it's called a sandwich when it's not a witch covered in sand....but here's why it's called Football and the term Soccer is from Europe

    Handegg > soccer/futbol

    And I love the rugby comparison too.

    If NFL athletes played rugby, without pads or helmets, they would literally k--- each other.

    A lot of you international fans don't understand that football/handegg is a high collision sport, with some of the fastest, biggest and strongest athletes in the world.

    love when people wanna make the argument that they wear pads and helmets, but like you said, if they didn't they'd k--- each other lol. no one is hitting harder than an NFL linebacker or defensive linemen. By the way, love that video of Reggie Bush getting jacked up by Sheldon Brown, too bad we lost that game.

    True.

    These guys are monsters lol.

    Imagine a rugby player trying to tackle Gronk lmao. Never gonna happen.

    Dude is 6'7 and 270lbs, and runs faster than probably every rugby player.

    Exactly lol. Rugby players are tough, not taking that away, but someone like Gronk or that cornball JJ Watt would destroy them. The size and speed that these guys have is ridiculous

    Those athletes are mostly fighters in the sense that their technique and skills are secondary to their strength and stamina.

    I don't understand your point.

    If NFL athletes didn't wear helmets, they'd k--- each other... That was my whole point.

    NFL athletes are freaks of nature... They're huge, strong AND fast.

    Football is strategic too. It's one of the most challenging sports mentally.

    It mixes both entertainment and strategy. Amazing game.
