A game played by wimps for wimps. I remember (back in the day) when the entire defensive line of the Oakland Raiders would be released from jail to play on Sunday. One of the defensive linemen (I forget which one) would have his arm put in a cast so he could use it as a club. The game was played by gladiators and every game was a war.

Now in order to see real men one has to watch Australian Rules Football.

Here's one of those old time tough guys. Not only played Defensive Tackle, but also Offensive Tackle, often the whole game on both sides of the ball. In the off season he rassled.
