I've never understood how gridiron got as abstract as it is compared to rugby football.

Like, adding one forward pass a century ago, I get that. Now they have 3 teams per side, have to bring on the kicker, "laterals" happen once in a blue moon, and both sets of linemen basically never touch the ball, hell they aren't even allowed to receive it. Arbitrarily moving field goal and kick off distances between seasons and all that too.

When you think about it, everyone plays so conservatively in the ruleset. I'd love to see a game where they aren't as anal about possession and keep plays alive for longer.

>Goose pulling (also called gander pulling, goose riding or pulling the goose) was a blood sport practiced in parts of the Netherlands, Belgium, England and North America from the 17th to the 19th centuries. The sport involved fastening a live goose with a well-greased head to a rope or pole that was stretched across a road. A man riding on horseback at a full gallop would attempt to grab the bird by the neck in order to pull the head off.

>From the top of the hill a 9 lb round of Double Gloucester cheese is rolled, and competitors start racing down the hill after it. The first person over the finish line at the bottom of the hill wins the cheese. In theory, competitors are aiming to catch the cheese; however, it has around a one-second head start and can reach speeds up to 70 mph (112 km/h), enough to knock over and injure a spectator. In the 2013 competition, a foam replica replaced the actual cheese for reasons of safety. The winner was given the prize after the competition.
