I wish I was interested in it. I also wish I was able to play it.

But with...

1. Bad motor skills
2. It's too late
3. I slack in working out

I can't play. Does anyone play (or wish they can play) American football?

No, I have no interest in a game where a man who wears more padding than a high-school prom queen gets paid more money to spend most of his time standing on a field while waiting for another guy in a striped shirt to explain why he threw his hankie on the ground, and gets paid more in one season for doing it than I'll get paid in the next ten years, while complaining all along that nobody appreciates him.

British-Irish football or Mexican futbol are the only real sports.

I love football. It is an interesting mix of strategy and athletic skill

Is this a question for the international folk?

It's fun to play but boring to watch.

Fun to play even if you suck...

I love football! I couldn't play either for various reasons.

Don't say it's too late! Maybe there's flag/touch football in your area. Where I live the town recreation department organizes sports for adults, things like open court basketball, weekly volleyball games, etc. I'll bet you could find something; check craigslist.

I like Canadian football (3 downs and a larger field.) Much more enjoyable than American football because there is a lot more offense and less of a defensive trap game.
