I'm sorry I must seem really weird to you Americans! It's just I can think of multiple kinds of football!

Sorry, I should have been clearer. Yes, American football. What is it called in other countries?

I think soccer is called football in some countries?

 

[collingwood]

Yes soccer is called football in england and a couple of other countries and then there's American and Australian football and then there is a sport like Aussie rules but is played with a soccer ball! Did you know that there is a USAFL (United States Australian Football League) but I don't think it's very popular (yet) I really want other countries to get into AFL because it's amazing!

How does Rugby fit into this football picture? The same as Australian football or different?

 

[collingwood]

No Aussie football is different to rugby they're completly different sports! But please look up AFL you tube or even just on the internet! I really want to know what an American would think of it!

My favorite sport is Boxing and Mixed Martial Arts, and Ultimate Fighting.
I've been told I'm 'UnAmerican' because I could care less about (American) football. I loved watching and playing baseball in school, now I find it boring, and nothing more than soap opera, just like football. Golf is fun to play, if you play it with others that play as bad as you and just play for fun, I don't like watching it.
Playing horseshoes and horseshoe tournaments in the summer drinking cold beer with friends is a lot of fun. It's not hard to throw horseshoes at a post, though some can pitch them like a art, ringers almost every time.

I looked at some Youtube footage of Aussie football and I might enjoy it if I understood all the rules (that's a big part of enjoying any sporting event), but I do think I would miss the passing and field generalship of the quarterback in American football.
