Abstract
I recently noticed a newspaper report about a match between two teams formed to play American football — the Moscow Bruins and the Sverdlovsk Federals. I recalled that item when I found myself sitting by chance at the same cafe table as four ‘Schwarzeneggers’ from the Moscow Bruins. Out of professional curiosity I asked them about the game and was amazed at their responses.
