    Re: 27 days until...

    I'm an NFL fan, but it certainly isn't real football - rather than going into the history (American Football was a development of Rugby, which was [somehow] developed from Football), lets put this into simple terms for you... there are very few meetings of ball and foot!

    Re: 27 days until...

    Without changing the subject of the thread, I'll just say that football is a subjective term used for describing a sport where a foot and a ball are used.
