I am a Hockey fan......It is a very physically demanding sport, but can no way compare to the NFL. Those are the most underpaid PRO's. I know a few ex NFL players...You take a beating . I played in the semi-pro league in europe (a long time ago) that is now NFL europe. Ever sit 10 rows up or closer at an NFL game ? It sounds like a fucking train wreck everyplay. These are not 5'10 185lbs. either. These are grown ass men that will damge your body. 6'2' 255 running a 4.4 is the norm now. Think about this.........in Hockey, basketball, baseball, soccer etc......(I do not now anything of rugby), there are continually 15, 16 , 18 year old "kids" that can play at there pro level. When was the last time a kid came out of High School for the NFL ? Or even after his freshman or soph. year in college ? Not very often, actually next to never. Why ? Because it is a MAN's game at that level!!! And a childs body is just not ready for that kind of abuse.
