I really believe if the US were to ever start getting pros into the sport instead of these part-timers they have right now that it would catch on here
Of course most of these "soccer moms" probably wouldnt let little Johnnie get into it cause of the roughness - and then the US congress would make it a law that players would have to wear all kind of protective gear and the game would go to the shitters anyway - shame cause its really more like what I remember real football to be like when I was growing up and we played tackle football without any protection
Course we skateboarded and rode our damn bikes without stupid helmets too - guess we just didnt have any sense of safety - but it sure was fun - and besides they didnt even think of safety gear for kids till I was a grownup - (bout the same time someone started saying parents shouldnt paddle kids) - oops I feel a rant coming - better stop right here
