Of football , Rugby and Soccer

I never knew Football was different from Soccer till about a month ago. I atleast called it American Football.... but again it was assumed that American football was like Rugby with a lot of safety gear.
But then ... Enlightenment Happened....
Looks like American Football is so very different from Rugby in so many cases and no idea which is better or worse , I think it is more like comparing Apples and Oranges and that thoo when you come from a country which does not play Rugby or American football and calls soccer football. More like the Rest of europe...

But then the rose bowl is coming up and it looks like the equivalent of the Ashes and looks good , but as in all American sports , has a lot of fanfare and packaging to it.

Lets see , one more day to go and I will know what is meant by American football history.
