Take away the padding and maybe I'll be interested. But these players stub their toe and then they don't play for weeks. What babies. Proper football is way more interesting.
Sports are mostly boring, but Americans love their big buff men ramming into each other because it's hardcore and violent and aggressive. If I had to pick any sport it would be baseball or golf, I am strangely attracted to the idea of hitting balls with sticks, but it's not something I go out of my way to get.
To each their own but I'm not a golf fan, not even a miniature golf fan. My family is all into football, soccer and hockey.
