**CLOSED** NFL Pick The Winners Contest - Week 8

but thats rugby, not soccer, like originally debated... and Ya the point about the padding i can see when compared to rugby

... however Im willing to bet not many 235lbs no body fat rugby players are running the 40 in 4.3 secs

and they say actually when the football players wore less padding in the old days, there were less injuries, cuz the players wouldnt lauch themselves at fullspeed like they do w the padding


and many americans think the same about soccer, how they could easily play it lol

[eejit101]

Ok, so put americans, who are always fat usually, running around for 90 minutes and they die.

I can only just do it!

[ScareCrowAKA]

you are not really sprinting most the time, just jogging, standing... unless u r a forward

[eejit101]

In soccer?

Yes you are. Midfield covers the entire pitch. 12 miles is average in game nowadays. THATS ALOT

... i know... i was just more or less being a smarta$$ a-hole w the last comment

[eejit101]

Ahhh. And i was happy you logged on every day before that!!

***.

Also, Man up. NFL is painful, as they do go flying, but still, its not physically tiring. They are just badly conditioned somehow. Who gets sprains and tears from running?

[ScareCrowAKA]

lol its not running, its tackeling, cutting, stopping, twisting... plus, u dont see what really goes on down in the line off camera most the time, those fuhckers, eye poke, fish hook, bend fingers, bite... O-line is a **** job lol
