Football here is the manly sport.

You mean the sport where the players wear six layers of body armour? Yeah, pretty manly indeed.

 

[Anxiety]

Was going to post the exact same thing.

American Football = Pussy version of Rugby.

 

[F3aRâ„¢]

You know why they must wear 1 layer of protection? Called laws. And yes, its a pussy version of rugby. But Football is more popular so I'm fine.

 

[GameOver]

Congratz, I don't deal with football, I love more basketball!

Football*

+1 :x

 

[Anxiety]

American football is only more popular in America. So.. yeah. Football (Soccer) is a more popular sport overall by a massive massive massive massive margin lmao.

And if it's the law to wear padding in American Football, why is it not in Rugby? Facepalm.

 

[F3aRâ„¢]

Cause New Zealand doesn't have laws like that. It's Rugby, not Football. Huge difference between the sports. *facepalm*

 

[Domasaurus]

Football is for pussies.

 

[Anxiety]

It's not just New Zealand that play Rugby, LMAO!

New Zealand started Rugby and is the main country that uses it as their sport besides soccer.

New Zealand started Rugby and is the main country that uses it as their sport besides soccer.

It is sometimes claimed by Irish historians of the game, that William Webb Ellis was actually giving a demonstration of "Caid". This ancient Irish free-for-all is very similar to rugby, and Webb Ellis could have witnessed it as a young boy when his soldier father was stationed in Ireland with the Dragoons. But in truth the origins of the game go back even further than Caid, to the Roman Empire and a popular game of the time called "Harpastum". And even then it is said that the Romans actually imported that game from China and Japan where it had been played for many centuries, while some accounts have it that the game was an Ancient Greek pastime called "Episkyros". Whatever the case, Harpastum was very much like rugby in that it involved two teams whose sole objective was to carry a leather ball stuffed with cloth or feathers over their opponents' goal line.

"Rugby" was actually started in England.

Obvious copy and paste is obvious

My friend lives in New Zealand and he says they started it. It's a popular sport so I see why they say they started it.
