" Deliberate acts of violence are not common in baseball or basketball or soccer (at least not by the players)." You don't get much more deliberate than that crash at home plate. The whole intent is to hit the catcher hard enough to make him drop the ball. The catcher does wear protective gear but it really just protects him from a pitched ball, not a 250 pound, roided up player, coming in at 30 feet per second. Yeah, but every hit in football is designed to make someone drop the ball or get hurt... every single one. Every time a guy blocks on the line, he tries to shove a thumb in an eye, or an elbow to the kidney, twist a leg while in the pile, etc..... Your pads don't help much when you are in a pile and someone grabs your leg and tries to twist it off while getting up... Granted, in baseball there is some contact, what, three times a game? In football there are probably 40 hits, each and every play, designed to hurt the other guy and put him out of the game... I honestly don't believe that. Some fraction of the players intend to hurt someone, but I believe most players intend to do their job - protect the quarterback, rush the quarterback, run the ball, tackle the ball carrier, catch the ball, stop the catch, etc., etc. Sorry, we're going to have to disagree on that one. John H. -- Hope you're having a great day! Agreed. Football is a rough sport but I think the majority of the players have a certain degree of respect for each other and are not out to *intentionally* cause injuries. It could just as easily happen to them. (Paybacks are a bitch). There are a few who are out to maim but they are in the minority. This bull**** about "every" play includes a thumb in the eye, an elbow to the kidney or trying to twist a leg off while getting up from a play is just that .... bull****. |

How many NFL coaches are involved in the same game as defensive coordinator Gregg Williams was? You remember Williams, right? An NFL investigation showed that NO Saints defensive players were being paid $1500 for taking an opposing player out of a game. The NFL claimed that at the time of the 2009 playoff game between New Orleans and Minnesota, Saints captain Jonathan Vilma had a $10,000 reward for any player who hit Brett Favre hard enough so he had to leave the game. Your NFL heroes play dirty and take steroids, and it wouldn't be surprising to learn that a good number of them play footsie with professional gamblers. -- Religion: together we can find the cure. |

Harry, there are over 1,700 active players in the NFL. How many do you think are offered or accept bonuses to "take out" an opposing player? Are there isolated cases of criminal like behavior? Yes, just like in any business. Is it representative of the whole league? No way. Just because you don't enjoy football or much of any popular sports doesn't mean it's all bad. Just like all big businesses aren't bad. You sure have a negative view on anything that doesn't appeal to you. |
