A wonderfully insightful, pscychodynamic article on American football is:
A. Dundes, "Into the Endzone for a Touchdown," Western Folklore 37 (1978)
75-88. It is reprinted in Dundes, Interpreting Folklore, 1980.

He also wrote "The American Game of "Smear the Queer" and the Homosexual
Component of Male Competitive Sport and Warfare," In his book Parsing
Through Customs, 1987.
