Football

Why would they call this sport football? Its more like runball or throwball. Or even brutes-beat-the-hell-out-of-each-other-for-a-piece-of-pigskin-ball. I dont understand how it could be fun to run up and down on a field chasing one man when all he has to do it throw it to not get trampled. How is it fun to run for ten seconds straight, then stop, and just keep doing it over and over again. What makes someone get up once a weekend to put on pounds of armor and a helmet and go run around in the heat and get yelled at by a middle aged man just to end up watching a kid half your size kick the ball through a huge two pronged yellow fork to decide the game? I dont really understand the point of the game anyways. Why is it so hard to just throw the ball to someone in that big open space on the side of the field? And who came up with the scoring system anyways? Six points for a score? Really? One or two usually works for every other sport.
