Actually a neat little documentary about the history of football, but the violence talk at the beginning made me laugh because of how hard it would make people "REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!" today.

Yes, but this is before football became corporate & scripted!

When this was made, the NFL players probably didn't make significantly more than the average working stiff, and college football was considered the much more popular game. Now college players are being paid and signing endorsement deals...I've said it before, I'll say it again: I have no problem with sports, I only hate (((sportsball))) and (niggerball))).

Your boys are too much like boys. Dont let them play football.

Eoropeans are more sophisticated than the crude ugly Americans and Canadians. You have to raise your boys like them and ban hockey, and make them play soccer instead.

That's the Atlantic council's job. European customer service doesn't smile like stupid gawky Americans. THey'r sophisticated.

And of course saying metric was "smarter" because dumbasses can't figure out the cultural Imperialist measure. Save the marxist international bankers profits on global packaging.

Fuckers are in for it.

I actually don't understand how fans of European football tolerate the players clearly faking being hurt.

Do they have a choice? Can they actually do anything to effect it?

NFL players started to do it, and the NFL clamped down on it as soon as it started, so...apparently...? It must be a cultural thing?

I mean, yeah...I'm especially impressed by all the super old american football footage in the video too.
