In American Football you can use your hands.
In soccer you cannot, only goalkeepers.
In American Football you tackle hard and try to cause as much pain to the person carrying the football.
In soccer its a red if you try to do that.
The balls are different.
In American Football they cover themselves from head to toe in protection.
In Soccer they only cover shins.
Finally, football (soccer) is WAY WAY better and more widely played.
btw. there are a whole lot more differences.

I have no clue why the American Hang-Egg is a sport, it’s an circus to sell advertisement, they wear HELMETS and ARMOUR, they stop every five second and it’s not even a ball game.

Yes a stupid game that takes about 4 hours to complete and is only meant to take an hour, boring and slow and unless your smashing someone else the Americans hate it.

Football has Manchester United. American football has the Dallas Cowboys. In other words, in Britain, the most hated, most narcissistic, most in-bed-with-league-officials franchise wears red; in America, it wears blue.
At least Man U had the good sense to not build a stadium, then another, with a stupid hole in the roof.

football is a sport with history and culture and played by 90% of the worlds population. eggball was created by neanderthalls for a nation of whooping primates who call themselves world champs when no-one else plays the retarded game.

Football is much much better I think, I mean Eggball is only played in America whereas Football is played worldwide over 200 countrys play the sport its a fact it is the most popular sport in the world with competions and leagues worldwide not just in America.
As Eggball is only played in 3 countries it wouldn’t even make the top 20 of worldwide popular sports.
As Dani LFC correctly said eggball is for huge people who are not athlete’s whereas football you need good stamina for 90 minutes continous play and therefore you need to be athletic.
Eggball isn’t a sport its an excuse for people with serious anger management issues to beat each other up.It is a rip off of Rugby and there is little skill involved in it unlike football which is full of skilful players.
Also they say football is for sissie’s at least they aren’t playing in bullet proof armour for Pete’s sake.
Football is much more entertaining and free flowing and Eggball just has breaks all the time for adverts,drinks and alot of other pointless crap and even when there playing its just a worst version of Rugby.
Hence they are not athletes.
FQ – They try too because they know our sport is far superior and they are annoyed that they where not original enough to come up with their own name for the sport so copied our name with Football(despite the fact they play in their hands).
Also they can’t handle the fact noone but them care about it.

Am I the only person on Earth who loves both these games? OK, they’re way different, and each requires its own set of athletic skills, and each has its own tactics, strategies, and methods…..but why can’t people just appreciate each for what it is, and leave it at that? The world is big; variety is good….

American football:There’s too many men on the pitch,the ball is the wrong shape and they spend too much time hugging each other wearing those tight shorts and big shoulder pads ! Football proper : is too complecated for them as they cant understand the scoring system ! Nor why the ball is round !

Why do Brits care about American football at all? You don’t play it, I don’t think many of you watch it, you’ve got your own sports to watch that you obviously enjoy much more. Why the need to badmouth it? It’s not as if American football is competing in some way with soccer? Again, why in the world do you Brits care about a game that you don’t play?
