Normal men is the key phrase. Rugby can be played by normal men. I'm sure the average tough-guy drunkard in a bar would have a blast with it. NFL is reserved for the most elite athletes. 6'3", 250 lb linebackers with 5% body fat, 4.30 40-yard dash times and abnormal amounts of testosterone.

That is because tax payers do not pay for their equipment.

Morton is a wide reciever and probably had a fraction of the fight experience as his opponent. He was probably in better physically shape, just lacked fight experience. He wasn't doing too bad until he was knocked out. And with those little mma gloves a KO can happen to anyone.

You would like to watch poor, elderly women get hit by cars, wouldn't you? Is that what it takes to turn you on these days?

How about that Zidane headbutt that turned the soccer world upside down? My lord, a 170 lb man ramming his head into someones chest. The brutality. I dread thinking about the amount of tea that was spilled on laps when that occurred

American football require skills, finesse, and contact. However, I can see how watching "football" might be mildly relaxing and would lower blood pressure.


By the way Bilbo, I shall soon capture your "Burger" game trophy. Next time I get bored, you can consider that trophy mine.
