    I like college football better (Southeastern conference teams especially)

    as far as pro teams it's all about the Colts

    yeah, in my opinion, American football should be called tackle-ball instead or something else. It's more about running the ball and throwing the ball than kicking it. You score one point by kicking it through the goal posts but you get six for running it or throwing it into the end zone. But whatever - it's fun to watch in HD

    Unless your going for a field goal then you get 3 points for kicking it through the goal posts.

    Holy Cow, against my best attempts I am learning about the game

    I knew I was forgetting something.

    Either way, you still get more points for running it or throwing than you do for kicking. But the kicker is important. If your team can't get a touchdown, you still get a chance to score with your kicker. And that is all I know about football. No clue what a safety is.

    I'm not sure what a safety is either. All I know is what I need to pick for my team, which is a kicker, a defense, A quarterback (and why is it called quarterback?), Wide receivers, and running backs.

    Saftey is when one defense sacks the QB in their(the defenese) own endzone. 2 pt.s plus teh ball back in form of a kickoff. I used to watch football, back when I played and for a few years after, but now it's kind of boring.
