In rugby, the players dictate the play, not the coach as in Gridiron.. Tried to grasp the rules of Gridiron one day, got bored after 15 minutes. Too much stop-starting, too long breaks between play, give me Rugby any day. If the USA did take rugby seriously, New Zealand, Australia and South Africa would have a problem on their hands..
Maybe. I think that the problem would be that americans that like gridiron are moronic in the same sense that european football fans are moronic. Rugby has rules and is a hooligans sport played by gentlemen. American football is a morons sport played by criminals.
