you mean soccer? we play soccer. i play keep, and i'm better than the keeps at the hs. i only allowed one goal last year (we had a 14-0 season), and that's because i was playing with a broken finger. I thought I had just jammed it earlier in the game, but i had really broken it. I've only allowed 2 goals in 2 yrs. How about you guys? do you play "fussbal"? or do you just play rugby?

Whats the crack with American football? all that padding.

If there was no padding it would be well to dangerous, like a death sport.

just a week ago a proffesional football player died. He played for los angeles something and he was nicknamed big luke.

He went in for a tackle and he got kicked in the head by a guys boot. He was in a coma but later died in hospital. He was wearing a helmet at the time but still died.

that shows you how dangerous the sport is even with protection.

was it arena league team? i haven't heard of that

i'll have to check, it was in my local newspaper two days ago so it might have happened over in La a while bak but i do know that it was recent.

I agree with the padding thing, I mentioned it in another thread, the red sox one I think. If it is sooooooooo dangerous then ban it. I see people trying to make fun of Europeans playing football (soccer) saying it's girly, it's tactical, not just brute force, though if you want you can play like that. Rugby is fun, no padding just you and your opponent, much more satisfying, taking them down, don't know why, a man thing I suppose.

cya

yeah but in american football you jump all over the guy and really hammer them, there is practically no rules

rugby is rough but there is alot of rules which dumb it down a little

I but in rugby, you can do what you want when there is a dog pile.

oh i, yes i forgot

i just heard about that guy on espn. football has a lot of rules too. probly more than rugby
