A study of National sports has found that America is split three ways on which particular discipline can be regarded as their most recognisable on an international platform.
American sports coverage consists of three main games:
Baseball - a highly lucrative and popular version of the schoolgirl game of rounders;
Basketball - A fast paced, competitive and skillful ball bouncing game involving 7 foot freaks of nature; and
Football - American Football is a game that involves 2 teams of 11 mainly huge and aggressive players dressed as 'Village People' complete with shoulder pads, thick padded pantyhose and topped off with a helmet, each team also has 435 substitutes on the bench that can enter the game as many times as they like whenever one of the outfield players gets tired or gets a bit of a bump.
Millions of people across America tune in every week to watch the players physically grapple with each other for supremacy, sometimes even pulling the helmets off each other.
The name of the game 'Football' can cause some confusion to the casual observer given that very few people actually kick the ball preferring instead to hold it like Paris Hilton's make up bag and run with it.
