You played American football at the college level?
Cool!
Where did you play? And what position did you play?

I don't watch it (seen a couple of superbowls over the years), but the tactical aspect quite appeals to me. If I lived in America and started supporting a team i'd probably get into it.

I think you nailed it regarding the tactical aspect. This is what most appeals to me about the game. The hundreds of different plays and formations, both on offense and on defense. Playing to a team's strengths and weaknesses. Weather conditions dictating a game plan.

No other sport, that I know of, matches this degree of tactical strategy.
