There is a small "back stage" american football. I have tried playing american football but didn't like it. Rugby is alot better in my opinion. But the main scean is football (soccer)

Probably has to do with the kicking and running aspect of it. I think the name should be changed to something that suits it better, like Painball or Bloodball. And the superbowl would be renamed the tournament of the shadows because the plays are so damn sneaky.

I watched the superbowl, i didnt realise before that it is very stop start, doesnt seem as intense as rugby, where its much more flowing. I got bored thanks to an advert every 5min.

American Football seems quite interesting in terms of strategy, team coordination, but it doesn't give this constant adrenaline rush from most of the sports I've played in.

Yeah the strategys are very interesting but there was no excitement for me. Was amused watching the teams posing in the video line ups.
