Real football

From Wiki Gonzalez

Q. What is real football?

A1. In the USA and Canada: Played with feet, hands, armor, and tight spandex pants. Derives from rugby, a man's game. (The occasional Brit has been known to comment, "I find it amusing that you Americans have to strap of fifty pounds of protective gear just to play a game of rugger.")

A2. In Australia and New Zealand: Played with feet, hands, jumpers, and tight shorts. Derives from rugby, a real man's game.

A3. In the rest of the Anglophone world: Played, astonishingly enough, with the feet. Much diving and dramatics, but also some legitimate excitement around World Cup time. Simplified from rugby, a real man's man's game.
