American Football is personally by far my favorite sport. It incorporates speed, stamina, quick thinking, strength, and a strong memory. Some of the biggest misconceptions by other countries about American Football is that it is played by fat American men. They need to look up pictures of NFL players. The only ones that even appear to be fat is linemen, and they are some of the strongest people in the world. For example of NFL players bodies, Seahawks WR DK Metcalf is 6 foot 4, (1.95 meters tall) 229 pounds (103.873 kilos) and has been clocked running the entire field at 21 miles per hour, and can bench press 450 pounds. Meanwhile, on defense, no 1 pick Travon Walker is 6’ 5, 272 pounds (123.377 kilos), has a 35.5 (0.9017 meter) vertical, and runs a 4.51 40 time. Just imagine a 272 pound beast running at you at nearly 20 miles per hour.
Also this rugby is tougher because no pads thing is ridiculous. While I am much less well educated by this, I have taken the time to read other posts and learn and hear rugby is much more fluid, which would result in less hard hits. Someone also brought up the point that Teddy Roosevelt, US president and professional cool/tough guy tried to BAN the sport because too many people were dying. Which, is why we have pads. Do YOU want to get hit by a 300 pound man running at you at 18 mph? Also, football was once very similar to rugby and was called football to separate it from rugby and because you use your feet a lot.

Now as far as Americans (I am one) insulting soccer, I mean, it’s a totally different sport. The only similarities are that in both sports, you must be strong (in different places) have quick thinking, understand formations, and be speedy. I have played soccer, and the sport has a lot of its own challenges. It simply just is based more off team play than American football. In both sports, your team while suffer based on weak spots, but sometimes that can be made up for more in football than soccer. Also, I would like to point out that us Americans play both soccer and football, and the ones that do understand the differences in between the games. However, for us Football is much more important. Meanwhile, British don’t even play football, so y’all can shut up. Soccer is a good game; but you know nothing about football so just go back to criticizing enemy clubs, not a sport you clearly don’t understand.
I can’t wait for American football to start up again in a couple of weeks
