+whiteknight06604 934 Posted February 27, 2009 (edited) Brett Farve? I'm not that big a wuss.QBs are a bunch of pampered fairies.No areana at my age.I bounced to arean a tiny bit but I'm just semi-pro.The team I played for for the last few years had an afiliation with the Albany Conquest of Arean2 but I never really got into the indoor stuff.just for the record the reason I retired was I suffered the same injury Tom Bwady(wuss) had.Torn ACL and MCL but unlike him I missed only 1/2 a game.the injury was in the playoffs and I was ready to go in training camp 6 months latter. and that season I ended up starting the season at O line.

I'm an old O-line vet from the SEC and my knees never looked like that, even after my injury to my left knee. You must be an absolute glutton for punishment giving this a go at your age. I admire your courage, but have to question your judgement. For all you woosie soccer fans, the hitting is the sport in American Football. It's all about pain and agony and who wants it the most. Take note that it is all about who we are. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

+whiteknight06604 934 Posted February 28, 2009 I'm more fearful of the wife than I am of anything on the field.Rugby is ok but while there are hard hits in rugby football has a constant punishing contact that few of the rugby players I've known could handle for too long.I'm very undersized for the positions I play.On the O and D line most of the guys I have to go up against are 20-50 more than me(i'm about 270lbs) and usualy younger and in better shape.I just have been around so long that I can get under the youngins skin and they soon get mad and make all kinds of mistakes.then I go in for the kill.It makes my job alot easier when the other team undersestimates me.I'm usualy a back up I have started games at every line position on both sides of the ball plus at tightend linebacker and fullback.In addition I hold team records for special teams tackles for a season and in a game.Football is just one of those things that once you get hooked it's hard to give up.This last year was the first time since 1979 that I have not been a part of organized football at some level and it probobly was the most miserable time of my life.My coach says that when I'm sick of playing he wants me to help the team coaching but I don't know if thats somthing I want.Just remember most sports are just played by people whos mommies wouldn't let them play football.

Rambler 1-1 9 Posted February 28, 2009 I played rugby last year, but ater plying football so much, I didn't really enjoy it that much. There was also the fact that there were only 14 people on our team, and we were playing 15 to a side. I wish there was a house rugby or football leauge in my town, but there isn't, only the real competative stuff. boy, do I miss knocking Offensive-linemen on their butts (I was right D-end... OORAH!) and then leveling those pansy QBs... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ruggbutt 45 Posted February 28, 2009 Haha because rugby players dont carry massive amounts of padding when they play. Typical American overkill Hoooraaa!!! The padding is to stop a player from becoming paraplegic or dead. You don't see anything close to that in any other sport. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lexx_Luthor 57 Posted March 1, 2009 Baloney. Its all about paperwork reduction. You know how many guys have told me.......... I was gonna fly Tomcats in TEH NAVY, but I messed up my knees.
