And, obviously, american football it's just a version of rugby.

Except they arm tackle in rugby. In the NFL, every play is a simulation of a 45 mph car wreck.

Its hard for people to understand, but imagine you are playing soccer against the 11 fastest, strongest and most powerful soccer players in the world. The refferee hands you the ball and tells them to separate you from the ball when he blows his whistle. He gives them helmets and pads so they dont kill you when they get to you. Welcome to small college football. You are not ready for the NFL.
