But if one....ONE....soccer player took a hit like a lot of linebackers deliver on almost every play in American Football, theyd be done....i mean killed. Soccer has gotten ridiculous. Players flop almost everytime a defender even breathes on them. That shit is pussy as it gets.

I definetly agree wit that its an absolute disgrace the way footballers fall about these days....back in the 70's n 80's it would never happen....its mainy in continental football in portugal, spain n italy tho its becoming terrible in britain 2...but if u think about it rugby is prolly the toughest sport coz u takin the same hits as nfl except u aint got no pads on.....

You havent seen the real tackles and tug of wars players have in soccer. Strenght matters too, but obvious is not on the same level as football

tug of wars? you talkin about Soccer or Rugby? what tha hell is a tug of war? Put it like this, i dont care for soccer...and a lot of Americans dont either. But i do respect the players athletisism...which a lot of Americans probably do too. You gotta be in unbelievable shape for Soccer. I dont really look at them as gay...or pussies, i just cant get INTO the sport. it isnt interesting to me. i dont think hockey players are pussies or gay...but i cant really get into that sport either. but dont discount American football. Believe me, they wear those pads and shit for a reason. if youve ever worn em, they arent comfortable at all. theyre heavier then you think...and players have died from the heat exhaution. If you could physically play the game of American Football without them...and actually live through a whole season, every player would. But without the pads...i guarentee you on every single play...youd have at LEAST one player carted off the field. And youd have at LEAST one player seriously injured (ie. paralyzed) every week.
Javier:
Im not discounting american football at all, all Im saying is that Soccer isnt a pussy sport. The Tug of wars im talking about are just between players where its two midfielders, a striker and a defender, etc etc. Different leauges just have different styles though, some do flop more than others
