No offense or judgement meant to anyone if that’s your thing (to each their own). That’s just how I see pretty much all professional sports - the super bowl is just the poster child for it.

    He was describing American football players/teams as thugs. It is not meant with race in mind at all. For a little context there was some big argument going on the TV and the American team was throwing a hissy fit and screaming at the officials.

    Edit, to add: Rugby can be quite violent, but the players have some respect for the game and officials. I don’t really follow sports, but I found Rugby fascinating when I was over there! What a neat game.
