Default Re: OT: why football is better than American football

IMO Hockey is the game. 5 player with sticks smacking a hard rubber disk around on ice. The goalie (up untill very recently) is padded everywhere but his neck.

The object of the game is to hit the goalie in the neck with the puck going over 100 mph! Seriously, what other sport (besides the obvious fighting sports) lets you beat the crap out of an opponent and just get a 5 minut penalty for "roughing"!!

If you've ever watched NHL playoff hockey, it is far from boring....a far cry from that "futball" thing...
