Posturing just ain't cowboy in any context. Completely different cultural values. I mean, you need 299 buddies to kick my ass, the hell you bragging about? ;)

Body on body....proper sports...not your sanitised version...cut up for TV viewing. Yet another victim of advetising.
Don't get me started or we'll end up talking about cricket...and why America is doomed because it has forsaken the greatest game on the planet!
Hurrah and a cup of tea!
I've already done the "soccer and rugby are perfectly good sports, just not real football" thing. It would be real interesting to put a quality x rugby team in pads for American football then have the quality x football team play a game of rugby. Wouldn't be fair, though. A football team can field 15 rugby-style bodies. A rugby team might have one beast on it who would make an undersized defensive tackle, never mind a decent offensive lineman.
