soccer is not tough unless you play for national championships and you get payed for it. having your whole country expecting you to win can be tough too. people like jim rome talk big bc they get payed to be clowns and to entertaint fat lazy baseball fans.
It's probably highly recommended to eat a lot of pig to maintain a mostly muscular 280 lb. lineman metabolism. That would require a shit-ton of protein, and pig is a good source.
Have u ever played Football?? Have u ever been sore not one day not a week maybe a few weeks from one game or one particcular hit..?? Ther is no comparison, no regular soccerplayer can't touch a NFLer. Defensive players are paid a lot of money to kill the quaterback, to stop the run, but it opponent to submission, at the same time running backs train hard so they can run thru the line. Truck that pesky corner back, truck that Line backer. And so one, s far as soccer players they hve. It made.
if we gone talk about tough men here. lets talk boxing, wrestling and rugby. not fatties wrapped is pads, playing for 10 minutes and 3 hours of commercial breaks and time outs. every sport needs athletism and soccer is one of the top ones. its been discussed so many times here. if you are fat or too tall you are not as flexible, as agil, as fast, as quick as a soccer player. all you got is your strenght which you get from fat by eating like a pig.
You're a ********ing idiot. I'm scared that you're actually a journalism student. Thank god you weren't in my program.
why do you always have to come out with the whole "yes we are 6 7" 300lbs" we know that crap, and most of those muscles come from creatine, and most football players are fat. get over it. if you trash our game, we will trash yours, thats the reality of men. if you hate cristiano ronaldo and love being fat, thats your problem, nobody wants to know that.
I was trying to figure out how this thread made it past the second post before being moved to the Soccer Basher thread... But it had some gems, like the guy who follows Schlereth's anti-soccer tweets during the world cup, to whom Timon responded... And then the best part, AguiluchoMerengue declares that his man-love tendencies don't extend to bear-types... All of which makes me think that he has posters of David Beckham in Victoria's undergarments all over his room.
just felt like showing this pic. My friends buddy smashed his head into the other guys head when they both went for a header. The other guy got it worse though. His eyebrow was covering his whole eye. Anyways, being a huge Philadelphia sports fan in general, I hate when ever I hear football fans say soccer is a cat sport. But what are you going to do. At least Jim Rome doesn't rant on soccer like he used to. Now with Alexi getting in his head, he actually talks positive about soccer.
jim rome has not option, he is a nobody in the sports world other than some clown for fat espn viewers.
exact;y....some sports fans dont like the NFL, Baseball as they are too slow for a lot of people, it doesnt make them sports bad..just different. Football(soccer) will always be No 1 its the worlds game, played by the richest and poorest of countries..not too many sports can say that.
Schlereth was a very good player. Multiple Pro Bowler, starter on three Super Bowl champions. His son Daniel, incidentally, is a pitcher for the Detroit Tigers and his daughter, Alexandria, is an aspiring actress in Hollywood. Daniel Alexandria Athletes come in all shapes and sizes and strength and agility are athletic traits, just like speed and acceleration and dribbling skill are. I'm not going to mock his athleticsm because he was born built differently than Christino Ronaldo, who would probably last a series or two, at best, in an NFL game, just like Schlereth would be very much out of place in pro soccer. So he doesn't like soccer. If he did like it, it wouldn't make any of us enjoy the game more - Mark Schlereth likes soccer so this game ROCKS! - and his disdain for it shouldn't cause any of us to think less of it, either. Further, his opinion isn't going to impact the growth of the sport. At all.
I think Sandon Mibut pretty much says it all. We don't really have a "soccer bashers" thread on this forum; I would think the one on Business & Media should be sufficient, but all the same it was fun to air out some rants here. Not much more to be said--thread closed.
