Steve gets a Kidney but I don't even get a tag.
You've all made a similar mistake. You keep calling this football. This is soccer, or as it's sometimes known, a pretend sport to keep little kids, high school girls, and Europeans (but I repeat myself) occupied while the men play real sports, like football.

:P
Isn't that just rugby football with added padding?
The virgin American Football player in his big helmet and padded jacket:

The CHAD rugby player covered in blood and still playing on:

Even the woman are more badass than your average American Football player:

Broke her nose, still played on :salute:

American "Football" is just rugby for pussies afraid of taking a beating.

Yeah, in higher civilizations, like the good ol' US of A, we value things like forward thinking, strategy, and teamwork over the application of raw violence sometimes. I know you guys never got past the "Men with clubs charging each other in kilts" phase of human development, but it produces interesting outcomes sometimes, and sometimes even by metrics other than "gallons liters of blood left on the field".

That's why we invented intergalactic shipping back in 1705 and uplifted you Yuros from your primitive notions of "Royalty" and "Accurate History" and that kind of garbage. Back when good ol' americans like Christopher Columbus sailed the cosmos and helped out primitive proto-humans like yourselves.

Like Basketball and Baseball where you can't even touch your opponent or it's a foul?
No. Basketball is just soccer with hoops.

Baseball isn't really a sport at all, it was invented back in 1822 as a way to allow the different cities in the US to settle their differences without resorting to civil war, which, as everyone knows, were very common prior to 1822. The US had about 10 civil wars a year back then, half of them between Boston and New York City, and George Washington and Abraham Lincoln called up Thomas Jefferson and forced him to come up with a way to avert it.

It's like you Euros have never heard of history or something...
