Hot take from an American: American football actually fucking sucks big time and is incredibly MAGA coded these days.
People supporting a sport that 90% of former professional players acquire CTE are fucking morons. Especially given how many young kids get into this shit in highschool, and get CTE and become absolute pieces of shit because of it.
Its baffling this sport and sports with similar problems are still popular, let alone the most popular ones in the US.
All I remember about American Football was how fucking slow the pace of the game was compared to literally every other mainstream sport. It was definitely designed for a fat ass country.
It's a game of strategy and formations, like chess or military drills, instead of just kicking a ball around for 90 minutes.
Yeah I keep forgetting only the games of chess, military drills?? And American football has strategy and formations, my bad.
It does seem fun to be an NFL coach. much less boring, and dangerous.
Football has a ton of strategy and formations. Don’t watch the ball for a half and just look at the backline and the movement in the mid field.
Not disagreeing with you on American football either. I love watching post game tape.
