DrBob, you don't make much sense.

First off, every football variation does at somepoint require that you kick the ball.

Secondly, I was raised in a house where I played every sport I could, including football, baseball, soccer, track, volleyball, wallyball, martial arts, kickball, field hockey, amongst others. Hell, I even played cricket and badmitton on a fairly regular basis. However, I've since got to the point where the only sport I can really enjoy watching is American football. Well, that and martial arts.

Since soccer isn't really considered that big in the US (even after the year the US won the world cup), I can't really get into that. Baseball had a strike a years ago that caused me to begin ignoring them, as has hockey more recently. Basketball has become too much about having an attitude and not enough about actually playing the game, although college basketball is still pretty entertaining. For the most part, it's just football since they haven't done anything to piss me off yet.
