I don't get what people think they see in a what is supposed to be a football crowd that would inspire them to choreograph a 60 person dance ensemble. Totally out of place imo.

Dog races and tug of wars for me.
It keeps the wife’s interest peeked so the boys get to gather to watch the game . At half time the men abandon the t.v. for the woman to watch while they fill their guts and run outside to smoke and huff .

Well, basically no one watched the far-right halftime alternative anyway. While a whopping 128 million people tuned in to watch global superstar (whom again I’d never heard of until last week) Bad Bunny rap in Spanish about culture, beauty, and unity—just 4 million clocked in for Turning Point’s divisive, initial airing of its 25-minute broadcast, reported The Independent.
Even the president—whose administration said he would watch it—couldn’t be bothered to tune in for TPUSA. Instead, Donald Trump was glued to the Puerto Rican singer’s performance, which aired on all screens during a Super Bowl party at his Mar-a-Lago golf club, according to clips taken by attendees of the event.
Trump eventually confirmed he had watched Bad Bunny’s set instead of Kid Rock’s, though the news came by way of a classic Trump rant on Truth Social in which he complained that he doesn’t understand Spanish and claimed that the dancing—which included reggaeton, salsa, bomba, and merengue—was “disgusting.”
The two most recent examples of the Trump dance I’ve encountered both came from South American leaders: Javier Milei, Argentina’s extremely weird president, did it at a White House event last November. And Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro did it in January to mock the president, who responded by sending Delta Force to kidnap him days later.

American football would be quite a good game if it wasn't for all the stoppages every 15-30 seconds. It's a close relation to rugby but rugby is almost continuous. All the stoppages in American football just make it a big turn off for many people. It just knocks you to sleep, seeing guys stood around drinking or having to watch TV adverts. If it wasn't for that I could get into it. One of the quality control guys at Ultra Finishing, the company I work for, is a fan of of the Baltimore Ravens. I can't remember how he became a fan of the sport but he said he started supporting the Ravens because they have similar colours to West Ham United, who he also supports. In his office he has a Ravens mousepad.

No comparism between football and rugby . I would not like to play scrum half in pads nor would I like to play halfback without them .

What, you have a problem with tea intervals?

Personally, I think American football would represent our culture and values better if the players were armed.
