"Injuries and death were routine. So, naturally, it was extremely popular" if that doesn't sum up our species I don't know what does

Not gonna lie…I’d pay good money to watch a game of mob soccer

I wonder if that is where the saying," He/She is the apple of my eye." 🤔

Sounds more fun than my current pastime of binging YouTube videos.

The old version of football would still be pretty fun. Imagine a bunch of kids from different streets competing to get it back to their street
