    It's like the Emperor's New Clothes - you just make it up as you go along and nobody dares question you! If you think it's not cryptic enough add a few acronyms.

    RE: Thats it....

    So, basically, one night, a rather drunk American went for a game of football/handball/rugby, ended up making an arse out of himself and calling it "American Football" which has evolved into what it is today?

    You learn something new everyday.

    I think I'm going to have to bow out on that one. Apparently it's Seattle next for the Redskins. Back to Blighty next weekend though so I'll just have to wait for the Superbowl!

    No - they called it football....we call it American football

    Worth taking the time to get to grips with the rules (in my opinion)

    Yep

    Seattle on the road - that's next Saturday.

    I think they'll have to have a little more in their offessive locker to get past the Seahawks
