Talk to the guys playing Rugby, they'd think American Football is a kid's
game.

They are fun to watch flop on the ground, trying to draw fouls. I suppose
getting off the ground and getting back into the game doesn't occur to
them?

I saw a world cup match this weekend where the replay clearly showed a
player getting tripped up, falling and rolling in "agony" clutching his
head. The only problem was that at no point did his head hit *anything* -
not the other player or the turf - nothing.

Almost as 'real' as Pro Wrestling.
