I am indeed british! Phys ed here is not boxing though, not sure where you have that information from? In winter time we did winter sports - soccer, rugby, and indoor things - while in the summer we'll do summer sports, like athletics, tennis and cricket.
While the NFL is indeed barbaric on many levels, it does involve a great deal of tactics, teamwork, forward planning and execution as a unit in sync to win. UFC (and boxing) are essentially just two guys in a ring trying make each other unconscious. Yes, there are techniques to do it, of course, but the end result is still one of sheer physical dominance.
I have a similar attitude towards other sports geared around 'who can run/jump/swim/throw the furthest' - no tactics, just who has the most natural talent in any one area, essentially. Also, motor sports.
For me, give me any tactical game any day over two guys just trying to see who is more physically gifted. For that reason I prefer football and soccer above pretty much everything, but will also watch basketball, cricket, rugby, hockey, ultimate frisbee and netball before I get interested in MMA, cross country running and discus.
Does that help clarify
What is netball.....I am not sure that is something we have much here....unless it goes by another name.

My money is on Lacrosse...

More like basketball, but with a couple of differences - no running/dribbling with the ball; the court is broken down in to sections and you have to stay in your section. Mostly played by girls.

Maybe. Have never played. Seems about right.

Here is a video explaining it:
Essentially, it is a bastardized version of basketball.....though to me the sport seems unnecessary....as what they should do is to just play real basketball.

Largely,yes. In much the same way American football is a bastardised version of rugby.Here is a video explaining it

Huh? You think too deeply.
Spoken like a true Trump supporter. It's OK big guy, you're allowed to have feelings, nobody's going to judge you for wanting faceless people from the internet to like you.

Cleveland can cut Johnny at 4 PM tomorrow.
http://www.cleveland.com/browns/index.ssf/2016/03/browns_will_cut_ties_with_john.html
I think it is done by 4:01 PM.
Which will make his career as a Brown shorter than Brandon Weeden's, who was cut on March 12th after his second season.
Johnny still setting records.

I agree Z, 4:01 tomorrow. For sure a Browns record. Maybe Gip can look up the NFL record for the fastest cut of a first round pick.
