Soccer has been around a lot longer than ‘american football’ and had a lot more time to get acceptance. Actually without soccer and rugby we wouldn’t have football.

Football is played continuously with a round ball and with the feet. The US mutant is mostly played with the hands (but “handball” was already taken), with a very oblate spheroid, with most of the time spent standing around trying to decide what to do next. Boring is mostly in the minds of those who can’t appreciate subtlety. I find standing around rather boring.
