      I can only watch so much football as can a rare other people like me. If I am watching football I want the view of one position. I don’t care that the buarterpacv got sacked on the play, how did the running back avoid the defense in his attempts to become open for a pass - or some such that I want to emulate when I nevt play. (i think that is a likely thing - I consider football too dangerious to play so I’m guessing - in reality I’d prefer to see other sports that I’m likely to play)

        i can’t make heads or tails of this reply :P

        “how did the running back avoid the defense”, i’m assuming there should be a “to” in there? who runs back? i can’t parse it…

              The game most of the world calls “football” is called “soccer” in the US. We have a very popular game we call “football” in the US that is unrelated to “soccer”, instead it is related to rugby (still very different from rugby, but there is a relation)

      The interesting part to me is that you can watch football even when/if you can’t play football, but you could be gaming instead of watching.
