American football vs. Rugby

[Army of GOD]

Pretty much why there's football and American football, but there's no rugby and American rugby.

Aww. there might be, but let's face it, even if it does exist, who else would play it?

not only would Americans play it but they would try to make it one of the most popular sports in the world.

Aussie rules football is the most bad ass sport I have ever seen. I enjoy Saints, football, and rugby; but I think Aussie rules trumps them all.

the chinese word for both of these sports translate as 'olive ball'. but the 'rugby' one is now the official sport of the army. what is the difference other than the helmets?
