rugby just like American football is played in short bursts and, even worse than football, the pile on each other for a while. soccer requires more athleticism than rugby

@ SeanT21. . .
i'm a cornerback, the hardest position to play in football and i disagree wit football been the rawest sport.
i'll go with track. that's a REAL MAN'S sport period. the sprinters have it easy, but quarter milers, and all the other events, its no joke ! i run track in the off season and trust me i dont look forward to practise at all lol
secondly i'll say boxing/MMA/UFC or those fast paced combat sports. that goes for body mass building, cardio, agility watch UFC fighters or boxers conditioning thats sum intense stuff !
the hard part of football is the mental/learning part of it. classrooms, learning and remembering the playbook is wayy harder than the physical aspect of the game

from what i know, there's been a lil bit of rugby going on in Nigeria. rugby players don't use all d equipments a football player uses. no pads, no helmets, just pure guts ! lol

yo momma's so FAT she irons her clothes on the driveway

wat poppin. . .  i kno this is coming kinda late but i stay in sac.
get at me

wat poppin. . . i kno this is coming kinda late but i stay in sac.
get at me

ohhh and, YES i played soccer all ma life in Nigeria, matter of fact i ran and played soccer throughout during the offseason to keep me fit and ready for football season, so i absolutely DONT disrespect or talk smak about soccer.
wat ticks me off is not soccer itself, its comparing soccer to football, and talkin smakk about foootball

wat is dis Ibime dude talkin about
i NEVER at any point said football was played in Nigeria, matter of fact look at my post on "is nigeria ready for american football"
i onle disagreed wit u for saying "NO NIGERIAN" me and ma homies had a football, and we used to snap the ball, and run routes, out cuts, post routes and d basic shyt in housing estate ABEOKUTA !
u talkin bout no one who played ball in Naija chhoses football over . . . . BULLSHYT, whateva anyone chooses is they personal choise, there's norules dat marry u to soccer for life.
and finally, I AM IN NO WAY FORCING FOOTBALL ON NO ONE, what pisses me off is the dumbass comparisons of football and soccer people on this thread are making. there are 2 absolutely differnt things.

am a ganjabreed tooo, yea yea yea, u don't hav to like me, herb is not drug, it makes your as$ relaxed and just helps your minds expand and chilll,
BUT !
"too much ah one tin nuh guud fi nuthin" moderation is the key word.
i smoke but am not a weed head, i stay off when i need too, and i just blaze when i wana chill and unwind . . . like me

oohh my GOD ! ! ! ! are u guys serios?
dont EVER classifie the herb as drug, u dont go to hell for smoking marijuana, it is he healing of the nation.
God made the herb for the servide of man
i still dont get it, alcohol is legal, ciggarrettes are legal, but they call Ganja drug, bun dung babylon ! ! ! !
its not worth the sermon, marijuana use dont make u a sinner bro, just moderate it, too much is neva nyce
read the bible and gimme verses that preach against ganja, God included it has ingredients for moses to make the special annointin, it grew on the tomb of king solomon, the bibe says the leaves is for the healing of the nation

whoever started this killed ma spirit.
cant spell reggae, cant spell Kalonji. . . dang !

i guess the streets dont love him afterall, dat bredda needs to get the helll out of Nigeria or at least out of festac.

this topic should not EXIST 9ice is NOT rapper, Ajasa spits that faya in yoruba, 9ice is a singer wit sum bomb lyrics, 2 different categories

and ikamefa, u dont kno Ajasa? then u're not Naija wit it. . .PERIOD

sac dont hav a football team, we gat the raiders and 49ers nearby. (they been fukkin up lately too)
but sac gat the kings and rivercats baseball, San Fransisco dont hav a NBA team

oh 4 reaLS? koo, i stand corrected
but damnn they need to crank dat cash machine up tho

well there u go. . . Kobe's, lebrons and the big names, but on average? yeaaa

whhaaatttt?
u talkini about the real football or american football? cos if u mean American football, hell no no hockey player gettin more pay dan a football player, not even basketball players get more than a football player
its no longer baseball, football is now America's past time and i'll list positions for u, so i dont kno wat u mean by "few positions"

another dumb response, u said u there's no skill required to play football as long as u're big and fast? i wont even answer u. and yes ur uncles's sista's mumy's friend that ended up in the NFL, fo shure he athletic and skilled enoof then hey hey hey. . . cos it is not played in Nigeria, does not make we dat play it NON-Nigerian. Amobii Okoye is still a Nigerian, Gbajabiamila is a Nigerian, Udeze is still a Nigerian, Umenyiora is a Nigerian, Ogunleye an all dem nigg@s. . . tonnes of other names in the NFL and NCAA
its sickening to see how pple who have NO CLUE of the rules of the game want to come here and doubt the credibilty of a game. of course it would be boring when u dont kno shyt about the game.
if u dont like the game its not by force u watch it, dont come here and diss it, yalll dont make sens at all
learn and kno the reson why the whistle gets blown every "minute"
stop hating yall, get a life

Ibime. . . wherever u got ur facts from
u said NO nigerian plays football, one of the most ignorant statements EVER

and if u talk smack am gonn get ma little bro on u ! ! ! 
he laid dat lil boy OUT ! ! ! dats how we do, representing for WEST AFRICA

*lol chek the fat a$s refree in the back ! lmao

AF. . . i'll take time to reply you.

1) call it a gurls version, i'll rather have a helmet on ma head cos i still leed ma thots in good shape to make guud decisions later in life, pads reduce unnecessary injuries but dont eliminate. u get lit up, ur head will still rattle and u'll se the blue stars and yellow birds\

2) that made me kno u dont kno SHYT about football. u said ther is no emotion in AMerican sports? of course not, thats why fans still come out in temperatures under zero to support, and thats why pple tattoo they team logo on em.

3)we also had running backs play with fractured arms. . but does it make sense? playing a game with a broken arm when u're still gonn get hit with about 2000 pounds of force?

4)if u're talkin about steroids, ask baseball players and track runners. . . steroids cant take u nowhere in football !

5) more pple will watch soccer cos soccer is more world wider period! thats a no-brainer

6)same thing as ma answer for number 5

7)dats wat makes it a different sport, like basketball, 2 points and 3 points. . .and freethrows, 1 each, so WTF?

"we work as one team. . . " well we wont have a 5'11, 202 pounds running back, blocking a 6'5 315 pounds defensive tackle so we have different pple doin different positions as ONE TEAM, division of labor. . . specialization (dumbass learn about the game)

9)see, u had to shift it from soccer, to rugby and then use rugby as a measuring unit. . .u dont even make sense

10)dont EVER EVER compare a soccer player to a football player. watch the NFL scouting combine on TV, or beter yet, go to an AMerican High school, and watch conditioning and try out for the football team. . . come back and tell me u're fit enoff

11) every sport gives poor people a chance to shine ! so dat is another senseless point, pple rise from poverty, fron the ghetto to making millions in the NFL, so does soccer, and track and any gifted athlete in any sport

12) we play this game, give it our all on the field, leave everything on the field, we shed blood and sweat and tears of joy/pain on that field, and after that, its no offseason. we p[ush the thin line between hardwork and insanity. thats EMOTION in MOTION,

i grew up in Abeokuta, ogun state Nigeria and i played soccer all my life, i love soccer but i've always looked forward to strappin up and playiin football, i got the chance, and i love every minute of it, comapring American football and soccer just does not make sense ! ! ! the only weird thang is just the name footbal, cos there's very minimal foot contact. anything else is just bullshytiin

Nigeria is not ready for American football ! period !
Financially it is expensive kitting up a whole team, different pads and helmets for different positions, then teaching the rules and offensive philosophy also the defense is like. . . . i dont even kno where i would start from explaining
the economey of Nigeria wouldnt let football thrive, equipment are expensive to purchase and maintain
Nigerian culture will frown at such an immense amount of physicality and violent hits, no Naija mother will sit in the stands and hear the CRASH ! of helmets and pads and not scream out. it would be tagged a violent game of hoodlums, and it is the direct opposite !
it will take an average soccer player, weeks of studying and memorising plays to pull off a smooth game.
but am still really proud of ma Naija boys making a Name in the NFL and NCAA, but am sik of having only tackles and linemen.
WE NEED MORE NIGERIANS ON OFFENCE ! ! ! ! ! where the RBs? WRs?

4 reals ! 9star shut ur mouth if u dont like AMerican football then dont come here ! ! !
