It was actually based on associated football when the collegiate league was first started. It then morphed to a version with rules similar to rugby (with the oblong ball and the ability to carry the ball) (Googled this, neat!). While I agree it’s a bit overhyped here in the states, it certainly isn’t lazy or lacking creativity. It’s a sport like any other.
Not boring? How many minutes of a match does there actually happen something? And how many minutes is filled with waiting and positioning? It’s soooooo boring. Even if a football match (soccer) is boring because nothing interesting is happening, it’s still more interesting than American football. And I hate football (soccer).

They should definitely change it to the way it’s depicted in Starship Troopers, it might gain broader appeal then.
