Not real football. Real football was played by men with names like Marchetti, Brown, Taylor, Moore, Conerly, Unitas. Real football was played by men with dirty uniforms and bloody noses. Not spandex tights and Heisman poses. Maybe it was the Cowboys' tight silver pants.
Modern football is really two games played simultaneously on one field.
In the center of activity a bunch of fat boys are pushing and shoving in their own little sumo wrestling tournament. They might as well wear loincloths and toss down salt for luck. Around the perimeter of the sumo tournament, and occasionally darting through it, are a bunch of greyhounds playing frisbee. This is how touchdowns are scored in modern football. This game should have a new name.
