    In retrospect, after the explanation of @EricLippert and others, you've actually given a great answer for the API part of my question - in addition to what you said, if I do class FootballTeam : List<FootballPlayers>, users of my class will be able to tell I've inherited from List<T> by using reflection, seeing the List<T> methods that don't make sense for a football team, and being able to use FootballTeam into List<T>, so I would be revealing implementation details to the client (unnecessarily).
