Liverpool and Citeh are the only teams in the "big 5" I don't hate with a passion. Starting to love QPR for the lower leagues as the football they are playing lately is nice to watch (my opinion).
As for the sports rankings, I go:
Rugby>Soccer>Hockey>American Football (aka modified rugby)>College Basketball>the rest.
Never got where we got the football name, as I referenced above if you look, American Football has heavy roots in rugby. for example the goalosts used to be on the goalline, and where h shaped. You have the "touchdown" which is worth 6 points (iirc the same as a try in rugby, in which you have to touch the ball down in the endzone *hint hint*. The extra point (also in rugby, though dependent on where you touch the ball down). Used to be no forward passes, and I'm sure there is a ton more in common someone who knows both sports well could show side-by-side comparison of the two.
