Something I had never thought about from the history of football.

Did you know that Teddy Roosevelt wanted it banned?

There is a book that is supposedly TERRIFIC that was published about a year ago on the history of football. Wish I could remember the name of it.

See if you can guess (it's obvious, when you think about it), the single biggest difference between American football and rugby -- and what makes it more dangerous. The defining characteristic that Teddy considered too dangerous.

First correct answer gets a cookie.
