Thought you all meant world cup
Football
bdsamm I just call it the Football with the pointy ball. Then no confusion.
Welcome JackieD and sorry for the confusion.
From what I've read American football was a derivation of rugby which was often called rugby football and so American football was called gridiron football to distinguish from the rugby game and at some point people dropped the word gridiron.
I am fond of rugby players as the second time I was assaulted there was a rugby game in progress nearby which I ran to. Rugby is a club sport at my school, not a full division 1 program but people can now get some scholarship aid to play. Both men's and women's teams.
bdsamm I don't think I can get a fun bet on the Chiefs. They are favored to win by 15.5 points and I am not comfortable giving someone that kind of a lead. Could leave me in a bit of trouble. LOL! But please cheer for the Chiefs Sunday anyway.
Thanks
I just looked at the Rams' Record. 3-7. Had no idea, I never look at the NFC. And they are defending champions? What on earth happened?
Angelina itβs called football in the uk.
Avery rugby is a bit like American football except the same players are on the pitch (no specialist kickers or whatever) no time outs and no padding or helmets.
Very nicely built men too

I watched a lot of the seven on sevens in the Olympics for both men and women. Very enjoyable considering I'd never watched a match thru before that. Fiji teams were great,

Avery: Good luck with your Pats Thursday night. I will be rooting for them but probably cannot watch. Looks like it will not be televised in my area. Good luck. The Bills are pretty tough.

Sam, thanks. May not make it to the end of the game because of the hour but will record it. Hope springs eternal here. Many folks believe, with some good reason, that Belichick can scheme up a way to win. They did win a bad weather game in Buffalo last year 14-10 by slowing things down and attacking the quarterback (and making no dumb mistakes, a problem this year). This is the same strategy teams used to use against us when Brady was here. We'll see.
