you think getting bumped and falling down hurts???
try having someone that is 220 pounds hit someone that is about 160 pounds with a 6 foot titanium stick in the chest, while both are running full speed at each other, hard enough to knock the smaller guy backwards and onto his head hard enough to knock him unconcious for 30 seconds even with his helmet on. i didnt even get called for the foul on that one.
you also dont see rugby guys complaining about the grass being too hard to fall down on.
soccer is a ***** sport and you just proved it.

You must not have played competitive soccer... or goalie for that matter... I have never been hit harder in my life then i have on a soccer field, rock hard dirt is not fun to fall on either. Especially in door soccer, good lord can you get drilled...
Not to mention, last I checked, slide tackles to the knee cap was not very fun...

Did someone *** rape you and tell you it was part of the game?
Like skimonkey said, this thread is about reporting about the game not banging on it. What benifit do you get for bagging on a sport? Tell me please.

You think I dont know Lacrosse is way more intense than soccer?? All my cousins play down in socal and I have played in a few pickup games believe me I know what lacrosse feels like. I played select as well when I was younger and I know there are way more physical sports than soccer. I was just making a point against Furley saying that soccer isnt a physical sport. I have a ton of respect for guys who play rugby and lacrosse because in my opinion they are way more aggressive than American Football and soccer for that matter.
I never said Lacrosse was a ***** sport so why do you have to attack me on that?
