      But yeah, when he realised the difference, he said our footballers are "top tier elite athletes that shit all over the over-glorified NFL players".

      As an Australian in an ARL state (as opposed to the aerial ping pong they call football in the southern states) American football has always struck me as like Australian football, but with shoulder pads, forward passes, olden times units of measurement and a lot of standing around. But at least the scoring is more like Australian football… that round-ball game the British play has pretty underwhelming scores in the end…

    I went looking for the reason it was called football when the ball is hardly ever kicked. The current ruling is that the ball be 11 to 11 1/4" in length along the axis. I found a reference that indicated the ball was originally "about 12 inches (1 foot)". The suggestion being that the game played with a one foot long ball, was called "foot ball" in reference to the ball and not the pedal appendage.

    Perfect explanation of the game, and whyI also have thought its a stupid game as well.

    Men in tight tights?
    Well, if the musical is anything like the film "Robin Hood, Men in Tights", I might be up for that part. I'll skip the throw ball parts though.
