The greatest game ever imagined by humans.

Every metric is addressed.

Let’s address the differences and similarities of American football and futbol and why our game is superior to the rest of the world’s game.

I’ll start.

More diverse body types get to compete with skills necessary to effectively compete. This is more inclusive of the diversity of human forms.

Add to the list of why our game is superior.

Soccer has good stuff. 1.5 billion viewers for the final vs 127 million for a Super Bowl is a big difference. Being famous in the World vs just the US is cool. The whole world knows Messi. Not everyone knows Patrick Mahomes.

Copy that. Was saying to my son Terry Bradshaw could prob walk around free in Europe without hanger oners.

The question is about the game itself. I believe ours is superior. It addresses far more metrics of the human condition.

Are you comparing the WC Championship gave vs the Super Bowl? Or is that the entire WC?

I’m saying American football addresses more metrics of human competition than any other game ever conceived.

Y’all come on. I didn’t ask about viewership.

What game is a better measurement of human team sports?

I’ll give another example:
American football includes the metric of maximum weight, power, agility and brute strength on the offensive and defensive lines while soccer does not.

I tried to watch soccer and it was boring.

I would prefer hockey and rugby.

I love football and only watch soccer during the WC, but I think soccer is the one of purest games humans have invented. Our eleven athletes vs. yours for two uninterrupted 45 minute periods. Very few rules. It's a hour and a half long waltz with a few wonderful crescendos. It is poetry. It is our better nature.

On the other hand, football was pure hate. Humanity is violent, and football celebrated that part of us. It was our very own Colosseum and harkened to a time when we were brutes who had to kill or be killed. A random archer could will his tribe to victory by putting an arrow through the throat of a King.

Today, that archer would be called for targeting. It's bullshite.

You mean the 11 minutes of actual action in football or the
100 commercials ? Or the 22
players on the field that don’t act individually but follow a script ?
Maybe it is the fact that it is the most subsidized sport in this country ?

This instantly made me think of how you could not compete in Nintendo Ice Hockey unless you had one of each size on the ice.

Couldn’t be out there with 5 small guys. They got checked too easy.
