response: Oh, good. Points are scored by advancing the ball to the opposing teams endzone for a touchdown, or by kicking the ball through their goalposts, called a field goal.

history: I love American football. It's probably my favorite sport. Oh, that's nice. It's also called gridiron football, and played by 11 people on each team. Wow, would you believe I thought it was 10 players? That's crazy lol Huh, anyway, the offense controls the football and attempts to advance the field by running or passing. That's called a play, right? I don't know a lot of technical terms of the game. I don't know what constitutes a "play", but the offense gets four of them to move forward at least 10 yards. If they don't, the other team gets the ball. Ah okay, I get it now
