this is football, there is no question. We have to come up with another name for the other one.

I suggest remaining American football to "rugby for pansies".

Or maybe "handegg".

On a side note, this seems like a great way for him to piss off a big chunk of his voter base.

"rugby for pansies" until you get CTE or some irreversible brain injury...

You can get CTE playing rugby or soccer too.
