I dunno.. american football has too many breaks. it just looks like they run at each other, hit each other, and then the guy with the ball throws it to the one guy who managed to get past the other team. Then they repeat until full time.

I'm probably wrong on my take of American Football, but still, Rugby is better. You don't get people wearing pussy body armour and you get cool stuff like the Haka. Plus the fact that my country is seen as the best in the world... well... all the chriteria for a sweet sport.
Yeah but we hit harder and run faster. Also we can throw nice tight spirals.
Hit harder...

No

Run faster...

Definate no

Nice tight spirals...

So do we, we just throw it backwards

Until you actually watch a game of rugby league or rugby union, don't assume you're better than us...The only reason you Americans tackle so hard is because you're basically wearing full body armour...How you get hurt is beyond me...

Take a look at this...

And the guy that gets hit continued to play...

For those of you that want to rag out Australian football, take a look at this:

While you're watching it, keep in mind we're wearing absolutely NO padding at all...

I'd have to Say that Rugby players are the toughest athletes in the world. It takes a lot of balls to get tackled like that with no padding.

Have you seen any rugby league matches before, or was that clip the first you'd seen of the sport?

Yes, I have seen clips of Rugby before on the Internet and video sites but I've never actually watched a full length game. And for International Football, I wouldn't say that I'm a fan of it but I'll admit that those guys have some serious skills. Just check out this video.

Very good post.  Just the right amount of everything.

They don't wear padding in hockey? How about for the shins in Soccer(I know its called football, but i'm american and its allowed).  Or even the gear they wear in cricket?  Simply amazing what this thing called "the internet" holds.

We wear armor for a reason. You guys dont have 2 or 3 300lb people told to tackle you to the ground while running full speed.  In high school I was on the defensive line and I broke my arm in two places taking out two of the offense so we could sack the quarterback.

lol, I don't slam your sport. Don't slam ours.

Besides which, it's all stupid, ever since the Seahawks fought the Steelers in the Superbowl. What the hell kind of game was that?

We also have a nifty little tactic called "dodging" sounds obsurd, I know! But its where you try NOT to get slammed down

When you have the ball, you are running into a pack of 3 or 4 guys trying to crush you, but heres this! You can actually PASS the ball down the line to make a break

theyve got balls, but id call it rather stupid, i mean, who wants to live there live missing teeth and having pain all the time?

plus i could watch the whole video cause them shorts were killing me lol

but, i like watch football, rugby isnt bad ethier... but soccer, i mean, how often do you really see those amazing goals you see in those videos... cause i  see like 3 or 4 in the world cup and waste like 10 hours of my life, i just think its to slow.

@ the ignorant comment about dodging, you see, when you have a helmet, you cant see as much as normal, and you cant move as fast. so please shut your mouth
