American Football=MANLIEST GAME ON EARTH.

[Sarmatian]

Since when is a bunch of not overly bright, muscular men touching and hugging each other considered manly?

Haven't you heard? The most manly things in the world all have very strong homo-erotic overtones.

Since crying out in pain, lying on the ground for five minutes and holding your leg in agony just because the guy with the ball brushed by you is.

So?

Don’t watch the Italians play!

Gah, hockey beats all these crappy footsoccers. Its faster game then any of these running games. The players arent exactly small, combined with the speed means the checks can be just as brutal as in American Football. Its very tactical game + there are actual fights in it also and the players also carry a stick which can be used to put pain to other players by slashing plus cross checking.

One thought.........all the Rugby and Soccer player in the NFL are punters and kickers, you know the ones that get run over more often then not.

Err, or possibly the ones that running them over is one of the costliest penalties in the game?

Yeah, that and occasionally you'll actually see a kicked destroy someone. I forget where exactly but in one of the clips linked to on youtube Sepul Veda (Steelers Kicker?) destroys someone.

Oh for clarity I have no idea if he ever played soccer or rugby, that was a general kicker/punter comment.
