Those of us who are not fans of European-style football tolerated the World Cup discussion this year. Are those FIFA fans so insecure as to attack the NFL so aggressively?
Hey, I don't mind American football (though from what i've seen the CFL is much better).

But it totally stumps me how you could call it "football".

The ball is kicked very rarely, and only ever by specially designated players. I just find it very odd.

In the scale of what sports that I think could sensibly be called "football", i put it like this:
European Football > Gaelic Football > Australian Rules Football > Rugby Union Football > Rugby League Football > North American Football
