Hint: no knightish protections were allowed hehe

i think the breaks in american football are made as they are solely for advertising. basing a sport around adverts sucks royally.
we need to see the top nfl team play the top rugby team in both their games. id pay mad cash to see that

To not consider that when you're talking to an American that they're national sport is called Football, and oh look, so is the British one is ignorance. You can take a stupid arguement and bash it out until the cows come home, but you will never change the habits of a lifetime, and certainly not that of a 200m+ nation of NFL watchers.
In terms of commerce, football (soccer) is up there as one of the worst. Overpaid players on extortionate salaries that are entirely unrealistic based on what they actually do. It's all about merchandising and advertising, just like the NFL. So that arguement is stupid too.
As for rugby versus gridiron? I'm not sure I'd like to go up against a player from either sport. They might be padded in NFL but did you notice how much faster the average player is than in rugby? Now, I'm not physician but usually when things come at your faster they cause more impact. Listen to your man Alex up there. Think he knows what he's talking about.
The only credible snippet of fact in this whole lousy debate is the fact that the actual use of the foot is significantly more in football (soccer). That's when they're not on the floor rolling around like morons (and I was going to girls but that's an insult to girls).
Though I love football (soccer) despite it's waning credibility, it's stupid to put this arguement forward, even if it was a bit of fun.
