Is American football played by a bunch of pansies?

Definately! Try playing Australian Rules Football and see what happens. They don't wear any protection except a mouth guard, some don't even wear that because they have no teeth left to protect!

If you want to say how great Australia Football or Rugby is, and that was clearly your point in this question based on the answer YOU picked, then go to the Football(Australia) and talk about it there. Report It

Reply:Ask an American football player that question - to his face. Preferrably a defensive lineman. You'll get your answer pretty quickly and decisively, I suspect.
Reply:Let me ask you this, have you played American Football? If so, you wouldn't be asking this question.



Without paddings, most players would have been dead by now. The paddings and helmet are there to protect players that is why Americans still enjoy the game. It would be saying the same as to why Knights wear heavy armor and Samurais don't. One isn't pansier than the other.



Don't say soccer is harder or more dangerous, soccers are played mostly by little girls in the U.S. Hence, soccer moms.



Don't say rugby is harder. Rugby would never reach the same popularity as American Football for the simple fact the rules leaves less to be desired.



I played all three and American Football is still the hardest.
Reply:Hi: Actually pansies are one of the hardiest flowers.

By definition hardy does not mean soft. The collisions

football players enjoy putting on one another more

likely qualifies them for masochistic. Apparently you

think the toughest guys are the ones that enjoy pain the

most. You must be a hurler fan. Ken

Reply:No, Soccer is.
Reply:Oh so because we want our players to survive more then one season they are pansies? Look at the injuries you get WITH padding and the rules that cut down on them.
Reply:Try tell that to some of the 350# lineman who play. No they are not pansies by any means
