Agree with your first point but definitely not about the Aussie Rules comparison.

I'd say American Football most resembles Rugby League as opposed to Rugby Union - mainly because in League you get 6 plays or "tackles" of possession to try and score before turning the ball over sort of like downs.

Re: Week Zero Discussion

Yeah, saying that anything resembles Aussie Rules is not true. It is a snowflake.

Re: Week Zero Discussion

Gotta love that CAL found a cannon for the game. How would one try to acquire such a thing in a foreign country? Do they have a cannon connect in Australia?
