Oh no, sissy liberals are bashing Football because it’s too violent. Duh, that’s why it’s fun. One time I was tackled so good I couldn’t even walk for a good 10 minutes. Man up fools.

Pat, why is it, do you suppose, that in ancient times, 30 was considered an old man? Phisical combat sort of takes its toll rather quickly. And thats what football ‘is’.

During jury duty I met a beast of a guy, maybe 270 and not fat. He had in Irish last name but was American. I asked him if he was an NFL lineman. He said he wished He played in college and tried for some pros.
He said the difference is insane. The brute strength in the NFL is like nothing he's ever seen, and dwarfs college play.
That is a scary thought.

Sissy soccer is like a ladyfinger firecracker.

None of these people were forced to play football.

None of them were forced to continue to play football after seeing what football was doing to others, or themselves.

None of them were forced to cash the big paychecks.

Nobody made them sign the contracts.

It’s a g-d hard physical sport. I mean, men actually get TACKLED by OTHER MEN in football.

They did not know that long term damage occurs after decades of hard physical use of their bodies?

Who knew? Who knew that being really hard on your body can have negative consequences, especially as you get older?

I mean it’s not like we could see this from any other way of living. Like the rock stars who party hard and die early. It’s not like we couldn’t see this from boxers. It’s not like we could see this from stuntmen or anything.

Good grief. They’re gonna have to rename this the NVL - National Vagina Leagues. Because they’re talking like little pussies complaining after the fact like they didn’t know anything.

Who hid anything from this guy? How is this man not smart enough to recognize risk and probable risk, playing in the NFL? Good gravy.

They aren’t naive child waifs. to come out and say all this after the fact, I just cannot take everyone glamming onto the victim train. Millionaires that play with a ball to the delights of thousands of fans, are now waify victims.

I am glad I am not a fan of football, because if I was I would really be starting to be let down greatly by them. Fortunate for me.

The body is not meant for the kind of beating that football does, repeatedly. Old football players are a broken-down lot.

If men want to take the risk, they should be free to pursue it. But be advised.

As a women, this is why women shouldn’t play with the men in football. A football player has to use brute strength to win. Don’t think they’ll use that strength if a woman is playing against them.

I don't want to play football. I would rather play billiards or table tennis.

Does that make me a nerd?

Especially billiards. I like to drink from a beer bottle as I play. One time, I hit the cue ball perfectly and it knocked all of the balls right into the side pocket- cleanly.

“Football is a game that rewards agressive behavior.”
I’m shocked! I’ve been deceived. I thought all along football was designed to punish aggressive behavior.
I can’t believe the stupidity of journalists.

A bunch of grown men in tights tackling each other with extreme violence while fighting over a ball. And if the ball that these grown men use to play a game has less air than it is supposed to, it dominates national attention for weeks.

The absurdity of it boggles my mind.

Well just damn. Kids can’t do anything anymore cause they might get hurt, men aren’t supposed to do he-man stuff like play rough and tumble games. Seems okay for women to become Rangers if they can take it but the military is going gay.

And all the while muzzies are on the march and gangs are burning down neighborhoods when someone besides their own has to take someone down. Law enforcement is on the extinction list and we’re all on our own but we’re not supposed to defend ourselves. The libs have the upper hand and the country is going to hell. Will there be anything left of the USA before Zero leaves office - if he even leaves? The only word I can think of for this is cluster****.

He lost count of the number of times he threw up during training.

Wait a minute? Soccer pros don't train hard enough to puke?

I guess he learned the hard way that this isn’t Europe - and that REAL MEN play football in the US.
