I have literally never come across a sport that is taken as serious, despite being as brainless and something a bunch of rhinos could do to each other, as American Football.

There is absolutely no logic to it whatsoever. Every single situation holds all avenues as equally optimal. You can pass, but that's risky if you instead could have bashed up against someone and held onto the ball, oh yeahhh bonus points for how hard you knock 'em over!!!

To be fair, Rugby is almost as dumb, but at least it's a brutal sport that has elements of dodging and only allows passing backwards.

Football has way more strategies then you can imagine it comes down to skill not just pure guessing.

No, it doesn't. I understand it. I actually couldn't believe a sport could be so idiotic that it revolved around body bashing as an actual correct move (rather than necessary evil) and that it basically let you throw the ball anywhere, kick it at any time and basically justify any/all moves at all times until I came across this sport and looked into it.

Yes, you have a bigger arsenal of moves upgrading the complexity.

No. Complexity comes from sports and scenarios where very few available moves are good but many are available nonetheless. In American Football, all moves, even intentionally bashing into someone hurting both you and them and tumbling on the floor like a couple of baboons who are fighting over who is alpha or not, is continually seen as a great thing to do.

Unlike basketball, baseball or [ice] hockey (hockey is probably second place in most 'thug-like'), football in America is a sport where you will find that intelligence is actually zero percent proportional with how far one goes in the career or how well you perform in the sport. It comes down to raw body mass and capacity to smash into people and keep running.

That has nothing to do with this. I just said I like basketball and baseball in comparison to american football.

I don't think I've ever heard an American call it "American Football" before

I'd feel like you'd enjoy football more if you were born and raised in America.

Yes. I have no increased liking whatsoever for the sports I was raised with. I can tell you that much.

I may do your first one because I think the Pats are the Chicago Bears but with a worse D and a better O.

There defense is carrying them and they looked miserable vs the Bills D offensively

Im pondering a 'Who will win the NFC East: Cowboys or Eagles" debate right now but still on the fence, both teams performed way the fuck differently then I thought they would over the weekend, as did damn near every other team in the league (Rams gave up 50+ to the Bucs of all teams)

Yes I have a burning hatred for captain fat fuck Roetsburger. 

He should retire, he is a perfect example of how not to age as a player
