American Football

The most popular sport in America. Requires a unique skill set foe every position. It requires strength, speed, precision, smarts, and more heart than any other team sport. Criticized by European pansy fucks(mostly of the soccer kind) because of the pads. The pads do little to protect me, the sticker on my helmet pretty much says "There's a good chance of death today." To all the fucking people who say the pads are gay put them on and say American football sucks put on the pads and say that to James Harrison and Clay Matthews. 1 of 2 will happen:
1) you will shit your pants, cry, and beg for your pussy soccer ball
2) you will cease to exist

Soccer douche(with his girlfriend): pads are gay, American football sucks
me: fuck you say!
soccer douche: pads are gay i will put them on and so you American
"i lay him out and make him concuss"
me: fuck you pansy motherfucker(take his girl)
soccer douche: "crying"
me: faggot

American football

An American sport that originates from the English sport of Rugby. It is played between two teams on a field of 100 yards (120 total including the end zones) with a brown oval shaped object called a Football. A teamโ€™s objective is to get itโ€™s offense on the field as often as possible (to score) and keep the opponentโ€™s offense off the field when possible, and limit their performance when they are on. Teamโ€™s score by driving the ball down the field by running and passing. The most common form of scoring is the touchdown (six points), followed by field goals (3), and (rarely) safeties (2). Immediately following the scoring of a touchdown the scoring team is given the option of performing a two-point conversion (worth 2 points) or the point-after-touchdown (PAT, 1 point). Field goals and PATs are scored by kicking the Football between a tall goal post located behind the end zone. Professional and collegiate games last full 60-minutes while high school games normally run at 48. Itโ€™s important to note that due to timeouts and play huddling Football games normally last between 3 and 4 hours.

Critics (normally foreign) seek to compare the playing style of American Football to Rugby. This is inaccurate, however. They are two different sports. While in Football certain positions require significantly larger stature and others do not, virtually all positions in Rugby require relatively large size. Linebackers, Tight Ends, Full Backs and (larger) Quarterbacks are often suitable for Rugby while positions such as Safeties, Half Backs, and Cornerbacks are normally not. Lineman can also suitable for Rugby play but few are. Unlike Rugby, American Football is a strategic sport and hence more importance is placed upon skill in positions. This, along with size differences, is why players rarely play both defense and offense.

Unlike Rugby, by rule, Football play requires one wears protective gear. While in Rugby very large players tend to tackle other very large players, in Football very large players tend to tackle players inferior in size to them which can result in higher rates of injury. In addition to this, turf is becoming increasingly common as a replacement for grass in Football stadiums again reinforcing the necessity for protective gear. Attire includes a hard helmet with facemask, numbered jersey for identification, shoulder and chest pads, tight pants with buttock, knee, and thigh pads, and cleats. Regardless of protective gear, Football has a higher injury rate than Rugby.

It is played on High School, Collegiate, and Professional (namely NFL) levels. Rules are generally the same throughout all levels but differ to varying degrees by league and skill level. American Footballโ€™s popularity rages in America overwhelmingly as the most-watched sport, but has failed to catch on in popularity in foreign countries (only Canada has a variation). Because of this, however, it remains a trademark of modern American culture.

The NFL organizes the most popular American Football teams each season for five months of hard-hitting action.

American football is a highly intense game much like rugby but with pads. It requires an immense amount of stamina and memorization for the plays. Although many people think its a "soft" version of rugby ill tell you what. . . i'd rather get hit by a guy without pads then a guy with pads 'nuff said.

now i gotta memorize and execute 150 different plays and 5 different formations. . .fuck

American Football - Some believe the name was stolen, this is false. The name Football was derived early in the sports creation when passing was not a part of the game and all that was done was running on the feet, hence the name football. This game is an intense one where you play by the objetives in which there are many ways to real your objectives, mainly physically. Throwing, running, and tackleing are the main actions of the game. This sport requires great mental and physical strength, speed, agility, teamwork, and the ability to keep your cool.

Uneducated Foreigner: football? they stole our name :'(
American Scholor: Incorrect, the name was actually created due to the large amount of running the ball in early football history.

American football

American football is the most mentally involved game in the history of the world.for those who think it just about a bunch of big fatties runnig into each other, try reading a zone defense. players have to remember hundreds off different plays, formations,and what to do on a certain play, depending on what the defense does.in fact, the biggest men on the field,offensive linemen, have to be the smartest players and have the best techniqe.it is a game of leverage and angles.it is the greatest teamsport in the world. in order to have a good team, every body on the team has to be eaqualy important. not only is it mentaly demanding, it is one of the most physically demanding ones too. it is because not only do you need endurance and running ability like soccer, you need strength and agility. if american football players did not wear pads, not only would many people die,but more than the early 1900s when they wore no pads. players are bigger stronger and faster.and even though you wear pads, it is still more painfull than every sport , except rugby,wrestling(not wwf, real stuff)and ufc, or cage fighting,boxing.if you dont agree with me on the physicallity, watch any high schools 2 a a day summer practice.or even better try it.you guys are just mad because it has not only become americas pastime, but americas obsession.and pads make it harder to run too. there is only 25-35 seconds between plays, timeouts are 1-2 minutes long,2 min between quarters, and 10 min half. not 5 mins. between plays like you little bitches said, and im talking to all who undermined football, dont judge it unless you've played the real thing, and you have played it and you still dont like it, you a least respect it.simply said, it is the best sport in the universe!!!!!!!!!

person one:rugby is so much better than "american" pussy football.
person 2:bitch, shut the fuck up
