Default Re: Thoughts on NFL in London/cross country sporting pollination

Soccer is a simple game that doesn't really take much thought to watch and process what's going on or even to play

TBH, people overrate how complex Football is. Its a fairly simple game for most people to watch. The rules can be confusing, but if you knew the rules, there isn't a whole lot of analyzing going on. People like watching football because its mindless violence. You watch huge men plowing into each other, waiting for big hits and plays. Stop trying to convince yourself otherwise. The NFL is pure entertainment.

Most sports are pure entertainment though. If you really want to, you can dive into a sport and learn as much as possible. In that sense, soccer can be just a complex sport as football or basketball. If you don't think so, chances are you just don't know enough about the game.
