That's what the football demographic really want to see anyway, right? That, and race cars crashing.
Ooh, look at me, I'm so smart.
I quite like race cars and hope to build them someday. No, I do not like seeing them crash, though. As far as American football, I used to enjoy it as a kid, but I think that was slightly emulational. I wanted to be a kicker, and actually wrote Jan Stenarud and got his autograph. Maybe at one point, it was an Aspie obsession of mine, I'd practice kicking for hours a day in my yard. But, when I actually tried playing in a Pop Warner league, didn't work out at all. I didn't have the personality for it.
Seriously, playing football is tough. Lots of those football players tend to be able to bench, squat, etc, alot of weight. You need very good explosive power. Personally, I much liked soccer and found it much more fitting for me. I enjoy watching soccer more, too. Football, for me, I don't like how basically every play lasts like 5 seconds, no fluidity in the game at all. But yeah, now that I'm actually athletic again, and out of my nerdy basement dweller phase I was in, I can quite appreciate the athleticism required for football. Just yeah, not my thing. When I do watch football, I much prefer college football, as the players aren't overpowered behemoths yet, and the ball goes farther than 2 yards every single play.
Sorry for jumping in on your thread, but I felt the need to defend it somewhat.
