Add blocking research into CTE and then doing a massive muckraking campaign to discredit doctors trying to publish their studies http://ftw.usatoday.com/2015/09/researchers-find-evidence-of-cte-in-96-of-deceased-nfl-players-they-tested They are even making a movie on the above: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Io6hPdC41RM

Groovelord Neato posted:i meant more it happened sorta regularly before they started wearing helmets and armor. swarthmore had something like four players killed on the field in one season and that's just too many rich college white boys all at once to not have helmet rules for the sport this was back when downs only occurred when the offense beat the poo poo so hard outta the defense that the ball could no longer be crawled toward the inzone

Soccer takes way more skill than football. Controlling a ball with feet and sending it where you need it to go by kicking it is way harder than catching and throwing it and bumping into people. But Americans are loving morons in general, so football appeals to them more. Hope this helps, retards.

Ufc is the best sport because it combines all the best parts of other sports into one really good thing. Punching: from hockey Kicking: from soccer Concussions and insanely gratuitous homo-eroticism: from football Can be played in any high school gymnasium: from basketball Therefore ufc is the best sport and you're wasting your time with the other sports

All real sports have players wearing helmets. The threat of getting hit in the head makes it a serious sport and not just a baby game for kids like soccer. There are exceptions of course, but it's a good rule of thumb.

Call it what it is. A sport for poors that involves jogging for 90 minutes and never actually scoring. Oooo almost forgot the flopping.

The common denominator is a helmet. Sports with helmets: Football,Hockey,Baseball,etc Games without helmets: Soccer, Beach Volleyball, Tag,etc

the only good thing soccer has is that system where the worst teams over a year or series of years or whatever it is get dropped a level and the best teams move up a level more pro sports should do that otherwise soccer is loving godawful and should be eliminated immediately

blugu64 posted:All I'm saying is soccer is as much a sport as major league gaming. i wouldnt go that far, since it could be improved like if they made the ball smaller and harder, used a stick or something to make up for that, shrunk the field quite a bit, lowered the number of people on the field to compensate for the smaller size, shrunk the goals as well to compensate for the smaller field and "ball", loosened up the flag thing to maybe have a minute or two of timeout and also allowed more hits, added protective gear for all of these reasons, got rid of OB through the use of walls or something, and maybe added ice skates and got rid of the grass, it woould be a cool and good sport gaming, there's nothing you can do
