My favorite reason she offers is: “[AFL] players hug each other in a caring and proud manner upon doing something good in a game.” I totally get that.

I was going to write something about how they look less inclined to involve themselves in pack mentality type behaviour but a discussion with my boyfriend about the local football team put that idea to rest.
