from an objective point of view, i think of the four major american pro leagues, american football is probably the most cerebral. playbooks as thick as textbooks. all 11 guys on one side of the ball have to execute perfectly to have a play work. quarterbacks and wide receivers have to analyze defenses and be on the same page together on pass plays for it to succeed. lots of video preparation, things of that sort. smak, we're not idiots for following it, but i do think however that those who dismiss a sport w/o giving it a chance are idiots (eg, americans who derisively dismiss real football).
having said that, some of the baby pictures of the footballers are funny. especially lampard as mentioned earlier.
