Guest Posted January 15, 2002 American football is a cheap lame version and less violent version of Rugby, and why call it football you hardly use your feet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Postduifje 0 Posted January 15, 2002 Voted the last option. Never watch or play the game, cause I think American football is about the dullest sport around. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Soccer on the other hand could, in theory, be played entirely without touching the ball with the foot.

At the kickoff you could lay on the ground and head the ball or use your knee or something, same for goalkicks, penalties etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Placebo 29 Posted January 15, 2002 Ahh I had a feeling you might ask that, it's one of those words that you use and know what it means but it's hard to explain what it means.........

Damage Inc 0 Posted January 15, 2002 It's pretty hard to do that for the entire game. And you can also use your chest to catch the ball. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
