I just don't get itPoor Semiret, he's foreign and has no idea if he "should laugh about the whole 'only playing music when they are out of ice cream' thing or not." There's also a Far Side cartoon that has had him stumped for almost 20 years.
What don't you understand? What have you politely gone along with whilst internally going WTF?

AMERICAN football for DummiesBunch of Big pansies wearing body-armour, helmets, Crotch guards and the like flouncing aoround a bit of grass, and knocking each other over (hoooHAAA).
There is a vast abundance of Bat Fastards out there too... and that's ok, because after they've waddled 10 meters, They can sit down and get a break while another team mate fills thier position.
Reality check... Rugby player in the UK: Zero Body armour, Hard tackling, and only on the guy who has the ball... (so rest assured, REAL rugby players specialise in selective abuse.)
PLUS.... the team is on the field.... no substituting, no 3 minute breaks everytime someone blows a whistle, no group hugs.. no knackers.
If a rugby player were to flounce over to teh sidelines and say "sorry chaps, I feel a bit worn out, I might just sit out for 4 minutes" he'd get lynched by his own team-mates.
Comparison based on the two sports....
Real rugby players: hard-running gents, with the ability to sustain a good pumelling on the field without needing tarty body-armour or little breaks.
Americans footballers: Lazy, unfit tarts who need body armour and 3 minute meetings to make sure all the thick eejits know what they're supposed to be doing next...
hmmm...
I guess the title should have read: "American football IS for Dummies"
Edit... And and and The Refferees in american football run around looking like little humbugs.... what's that all about?
