    Ridiculous padding? …
    Ridiculous padding? Not needed? Try getting hit at full strength by a 300lb linebacker who can run like an Olympic sprinter and bench press more than his body weight. While you’re lying on the field waiting for the ambulance to arrive and put your bones back together, then you’ll probably stop laughing about the padding.

    Why do people get hot under the collar over which sport is better. Both are physically and mentally straining. People need to get over themselves.

    American Football …
    American Football takes a lot of strategy, planning, thinking, discipline, etc! And they wear helmets, shoulder pads to protect themselves! If it’s not 11 on 11, it’s not real football! It’s 11 men vs. 11 men! Offense vs. Defense! Just watch the American NFL Football game “Madden NFL 2010″ on YouTube!

    It’s called football cause originally all plays were running plays, no throwing. Since they were always running on foot, they called it football.

Most of the time they are seen catching the ball with their hand. Original Football is the one these suckers call soccer. Stop calling your Football and stop this bullshit.

    Every player is in contact at all times. There are multiple ways to advance the ball down the field. He is simply explaining how to run the ball.

    The ball may be thrown forward down the field as far as the team wants.

    “Running back” is a position on the field. Running backs run with the ball.

    Does this help?

    what are all the players doing? Is it forbidden to throw the ball? But you always see the ball being htrown or am I wrong?

    What direction do the players in your example run? Do they attack? They run towards the enemy?

    And some are running back? Why that?

    Clueless…
