Please take it from someone whos played bothe sports. i like football, but rugbys more fun. but no matter who we are or what we prefer, we all hate soccor

what non of you rugby morons don't realize is that every american football players plays it without pads on the playground....every american kid does. We all know exactly what its like to hit/get hit without pads on. TRUST ME, it hurts more to get hit by a player that is unlimited by how hard he can hit with hit you with his pads or helmets. Rugby players pull up before they hit, you can see it in every clip. They don't spear into hits like AF players do.

also football can be more fun tackle wise because you can just fly at people. Unfortunately that is why there are so many very horrible injuries in football. Some that you will never see in rugby

[TheJamSessionDL]

I would like to see one of you rugby players take a full speed hit on an AF kickoff, punt, or pass play they are brutal

@FALLENFORFISH That's 40 yards not meters and combine testing methods are very different to how Olympic and rugby testing is done.

@FALLENFORFISH Maybe someone should be teaching those highly intelligent high schoolers that charging head first into contact, helmet or not, isn't really a good idea.

@wesleywt nfl players can nearly tackle anyway they want, so there alot stronger than rugby palyers, 312Lbs DE ran his 40m dash in 5.02.

@0B3YW33GEE If that was the case why does America suck at rugby?

[wesleywt]

@FALLENFORFISH Perhaps you should learn how to read. I said nothing about injuries moron. Many rugby players get paralysed in the scrums, so even your point you are trying to make it stupid. Next time step away from the interwebs before you make a fool of yourself.

@wesleywt dick head, 140,000 in highschool football alone have severe neck injurys or even paralyzed a year because of tackling so stfu

[wesleywt]

@0B3YW33GEE Incorrect. If NFL players played rugby, they will lose because they have been selected on strength and not endurance. They wouldn't last 80 minutes of running, they won't be able to make on field decisions and they won't be able to pass the ball. Similarly rugby players won't make it in NFL, because they will be bored shitless from all the stops, and wonder why the fuck you have two teams playing on one side.
