Statistics

[xoxoxoBruce]

Football (ie. soccer) in Britain has nowhere near as many statistics and so on.

Sure it does. You just don't care or keep track of them.
Example; How many times does a particular player head the ball with his arms inside 45 degrees from the perpendicular axis of his body? Outside 45 degrees? Same 2 for the whole team? Whole division ? Whole league? Players 20 years old? 21 years old?
See what I mean? The stats are there but you don't care.
