There was a good article in last Friday's Wall Street Journal about the NFL extending their global reach to China. "The NFL has supported the efforts of 11 academics who have create a 300-page American Football Encyclopedia. Here is how some key terms are rendered into Chinese in the Encyclopedia."
Term - Chinese Equivalent
Blitz - Lightning war against the QB
Hail Mary Pass - Miracle Long Pass
Onside Kick - Gambling kickoff
Play Action - Pass after fake run
Pocket - Protection arc
Punt - Give up and kick it back
Sack - Capture the commander in chief
Touchdown - Step on enemy's territory
