Rugby > American Football

They play longer and harder without having to stop every 30 seconds. They don't need padding. They are actual athletes. If you think NFL players are Gladiators, Rugby players are fucking Spartans.

 

[Mayhem]

Good touchdown, don't get me wrong. But not that amazing. Our guy got wide open and the defense wisely decided not to risk possible injury by chasing after him. This is what I see just about every Monday on the highlight reels. One attempted "shoulder-tackle" after another, defense chasing but never catching, no one diving at the runners legs (head to toe padding only goes so far, I guess). Hell, last weekend or weekend before some doofus did a 9.7 running somersault for no apparent reason, while homey visited the endzone.

Football is such a game for saps. What a waste of one Sunday after another.

Yeah, this looks real intense. Group hug time? I'm sure that's really painful.

NFL players have to wear pads. If Ray Lewis hit people without pads on, they'd be dead. Hell, he kills people during his off days. Send one of your little rugby bitches across the middle on him or Troy Polamalu and see who's a gladiator.

*Yawn*

I don't remember hearing about Gladiators stopping the fights every 30 seconds to have a quick break.


I am in no way calling NFL players pussies, or suggesting they are weak, but the majority of Rugby players would wipe the floor with your guys. All you can give me is one player who's hard? The All Blacks would tear any of them apart. Put them in padding and they'd be fucking unstoppable. It would pretty much be like giving a bullet proof vest to the Terminator - completely unnecessary...

If NFL style hits were allowed in a rugby match the game would be over in the first two minutes, whether it were NFL players or rugby players dishing them out.

This is truth. Anyone who says rugby is tougher than NFL has never watched NFL. People get injured bad in NFL and that's with the Pads on.

I'm a huge fan of the NFL, but this is fuckin insanity:

 

[FreeOnes_Anders]

From seeing interviews with NFL players and Rugby players I´ve gleaned one important disctinction.

To play in the NFL you have to be mentally retarded.

To play Rugby you have be mentally insane.

 

[Ace Bandage]

The hits start at :55




Give me LT, Ray Nitschke, Dick Butkus, Ronnie Lott, Ray Lewis, Night Train, Jack Lambert, Jack Tatum, Deacon Jones, and Mean Joe Greene against any of your ten rugby boys.

If they aren't wearing all their padding and shit ... I don't think so!!

 

[STDiva]

The level of athleticism in the NFL is so far beyond any other sport its not even funny. They're bigger, faster and stronger than any other league by far. If they didn't have the padding they do, people would be killed and the sport would be illegal. I'm so sick of hearing people say its a bitch sport because of the padding and breaks between plays. You clearly have no idea wtf you're talking about.

 

[Henrik Larsson]

Every thread that gets posted here about sport but in particular seems to turn into an argument about NFL vs Rugby vs football.

It also seems to be generally British and European members against Canadian and American ones.


With that note i give you this

Football>Rugby>NFL

I never watch the latter two sports though so they could be in any order imo

 

[Ace Bandage]

NFL>Baseball>Hockey>Basketball>Curling>Auto Racing>bird shit>midget tossing>Soccer>Rugby

Fixed.

I'm sick of hearing about how super the NFL and it's players are ... especially from "arm-chair quaterbacks".
