In fairness I took the OP for playing around, and didn't think it would get taken seriously.

I'm a fan of American football but there are some things that Hockey does better. To compare the two is to compare apples and kidney beans however, so I don't want to argue about that with anyone either.

You don't see how a historian giving you the history of a sport is relevant to that history?
Anyway the soccer vs anything threads always turn into flames and hurt feelings and I'm not interested in that. You have fun with yours, we will with ours.
I made a point of agreeing with TiG on that point, and now you're making that into all sorts of other nuances. I don't want to fight you about it on any level whatsoever.
The OP wasn't even trolling, he was just playing around, and perhaps even wondering somewhat legitimately if the sport
could be adapted in some way as to make it better liked in North America. No, you don't need it too, and certainly we don't need to like it, but... meh, I don't feel like explaining anything else. This shit has been done some many times on this site that it's not worth the hassle.
