You've broken your ass? Unlucky!
Any Given Sunday is a decent American football film.
As for something like Battle Royale, how about The Running Man? It's 80's-tacular.

Unnescessary Roughness is a great American Football movie. It's one of those comedy "underdogs make good" films, but it's very funny IMHO.

As for 4: Mortal Kombat. You'll laugh your ass off, which since it's already broken, would be a good thing!
