Don't get me wrong I love watching it, I use to support the Chicago Bears in Walter Paytons days (it isn't on English TV very much)
However, Rugby seems harder, faster, it is continous, you get jumped by loads of huge great hairy bast ards, they drag you to the ground and THEN everyone else (including your own players) jump on you - and that is part of the rules!
People sit on your head all the time. you get eye gouged, fish hooked, stomped on, punched, kicked, bitten regularly...yet in rugby we don't bother with the heavy armour that American Football has.
When did American Football get the padding and helmets? If one guy wears it, everyone else would need to, I can see that...but If no one wore it, no one would need it surely?
