I tried to get into watching NFL when I was in the States, but it was just too slow. Maybe if the game was faster and had more flow, I would have been more captivated.

Fight saves fans from watching Chiefs, Eagles

Yeah, no one said that there were NO fights in the crowds at NFL games.

We don't take it to extremes and set fire to the stands and cause riots. You really can't compare how American football fans act to how Euro and Brazilian fans act.

You can throw Gaelic and Hurling into those wussy sports. What makes NFL non wussy ? Is it all the padding and helmets ? The super tight tights ? I am unsure what makes it more manly.

Because manly sports don't wear tights, just American Football.
