Americans don't play rugby either do they.

I guess it's cuz they are so soft and a bit limp wristed, which is why they wear a suit of armour to play American football compared to rugby players.

You've gotta be kidding me. Tell me you're not that ignorant.

An NFL career takes 10 years off the life span of the player on average. 10 years! Most players have debilitating injuries throughout the remainder of their lives.I'm sure professional rugby is jus as tough, but it's very ignorant for you to go into this spouting shit you know nothing about. Find some info on the average lifespan of a professional rugby player. Let's see if it matches up.

Rugby isn't as tough... proffessional rugby players play way later in their careers then proffesional football players.

Anyone who plays both will tell you Football hurts more.

Rugby players play well on at an age where Football players can't even walk without feeling intense pain.
