“The American game should be called American rugby.
It has nothing in common with football.”

Rugby has nothing in common with the American game. The American game is ‘FOOTBALL’. Stick it up your @$$, Brits. Especially you, Piers of $hit.

From what I understood, American Football was pretty much descended from Rugby, which is one tough sport to play. Our local flavor involves more discrete plays and the participants are better padded, but there are many similarities ...

Rugby has nothing to do with gridiron?. Are you for real?. Do you know ANYTHING about your game’s history. US and Canadian football are both based on rugby.

Oh, and whilst I share your and everyone’s hatred of Morgan (we Brits hate him more, as he printed faked photos of alleged abusive British soldiers....), BUT knock off the Brit-bashing. HATE HIM, NOT US.
