ALL of the worlds Middle weights to LHW are in Football. They earn 30 to 250K a week. America is lucky.

There is college soccer for girls more than guys here in the US

It's more acceptable for girls to do something with their lives other than cook and clean in America than in other countries.

soccer is a girls sport down here tbh

shogunn

Primarily because its a womens sport, Im suprised the US even has a male team. I guess they just need someone to represent since so many other countries also have fairies representing them

It's not a knock on the sport or a joke either, it's a fact that it's a women's and kid's sport here in the US. Honestly. I don't see how non-American's get so butthurt about it.

Men play Rugby. Yes you may not have as hard tackles like in the NFL, but because they have no damn padding and helmets. Pre padding and helmeting like women, American football tackles were very similar to Rugby too.

there is no comparing the collisions in a football game to that of a rugby game. the padding allows you to hit much harder. it prevents damage to the degree that it allows for harder contact.

if you had an equal understanding of both games you'd find football to be far more violent in it's collisions by virtue of the equipment, and not the other way around.

and while there may be some world class talent playing rugby, lets be real. there's more talent one one american football team than there is in an entire rugby league. if you know what a great athlete looks like, you cant disparage that.

If you think rugby players can touch the top (let alone the fringe) NFL players, you're fvcking mistaken. I can appreciate both sports but for the most part, any particular sport is downgraded because of the lack of understanding of said sport. (I used to sh1t on futbol until I watched Ronaldinho and have been watching sporadically since).
