Imo American Football is a far slower game. There's so many breaks how can the game ever really flow? It cant really. This is a major factor behind it not catching on well anywhere other than the states. Also people dont get the rules and well it was never marketed over here.

The pace slowly builds up. In close games there's nothing better than a come-back drive led by Brett Farve, or in the past John Elway. Also, that's in pro football where the play clock is 40 seconds long, in college it's only 25 seconds which can speed up the game considerably.

One day an Englishman, a Scotsman, and an Irishman walked into a pub together. They each bought a pint of Guinness. Just as they were about to enjoy their creamy beverage, three flies landed in each of their pints. The Englishman pushed his beer away in disgust. The Scotsman fished the fly out of his beer and continued drinking it, as if nothing had happened. The Irishman, too, picked the fly out of his drink but then held it out over the beer and yelled "SPIT IT OUT, SPIT IT OUT, YOU BASTARD!"
