American football vs rugby?


i'm gonna attempt to settle the debate between the sport with tougher guys

you could make an argument for rugby because they have no pads. however, the hits they make are more of "everyone pile on the guy with the ball" than football. this is the only case i can think of for rugby

in football, the emphasis is knock the crap out of the guy with the ball, and then everyone dog piles you. every single play, at least 8 guys on the team will try to completley knock the crap out of the other team. in rugby, one guy gets people to jump on him. in football, a 254 pound brian ulacher rocks a 200 pound tomlinson, and then smashes him to the ground. in rugby, a guy gets dogpiled.

if guys didn't wear pads in foot ball, they'd die. if guys didn't wear cups in rugby, they'd be fine (that was just a joke.)

what aer your reasons for which sport involves tougher guys? why?
i would like to add finally that wearing pads and not shorts makes you look like a
Bad *** Mutha even if you're not black (heh heh)

i mean, come on, don't you think that urlacher looks much tougher and more intimidating when he's wearing pads? in the locker room, he just looks like a normal body builder, but with pads, he's scary as hell.

same things with one of my friends. in school, he's just a normal guy. but when he puts on his pads, he looks like he's ready to hit someone so hard their kidney's wind up in their cup

and don't give football players wear pads as a reason. the more pads, the harder you hit.

in football, it's run as fast as you can and deck the guy you're running towards.

or juke. whatever.

in rugby, it may hurt just as much, but only cuz they're not going full speed after the first few minutes.
it's run as fast as you can, slow don, then hit.

as a summary, football= run, run, run CRUNCH

rugby= run run, slow down a little, crunch.
still a solid cruch, just not as bone jarring.

in football, run as fast as you can into other guy = good job


in rugby, run full speed into other guy = stretcher
