Discussing toughness and comparing separate sports is fucking retarded imo. A fighter has a different type of toughness when compared to an NFL player which has a different type of toughness when compared with action sports guys so on and so forth.

Hockey hits are way faster and harder and then you hit the ice or boards/glass which are also harder than grass or turf. Hockey players are by far the toughest team sport athletes

false the glass is designed to lessen the impact of the hit you fucking moron. It dissipates the energy from the hit into the surround glass making the hit much less painful

You know what isn't design to decrease the impact of a hit? the fucking earth. Turf is 1000x worse because theres usually a foot of fucking concrete under a few inches of those shitty rubber pellets. Nothing is worse than getting tackled on a frozen turf field

I'm a big football fan so that probably sways my opinion but I feel like its almost not even a comparison. These NFL players are mind bogglingly big while still being able to run. The hits are just brutal, it may not hurt as much (Probably does), but the hits are definitely bigger. If Ray lewis, Ndamakong Suh, or JJ Watt played Rugby they would be absolute legends in that world.

I like football and like to think of myself as a big fan but I gotta disagree. Suh, Lewis, and Watt (throw Matthews, Cushing, and for shit'sngiggles JPP and those guys on the Giants line) are fucking CRAZY athletes. However, they are used to fast bursts with slow downs.

Rugby, now, it isn't like soccer where it's CONSTANT but it definitely I don't think has the same pauses as the NFL.

THAT said, I know from two guys (both New Zealanders) who are here in the States that I am friends with who say they always thought American football was for pussies. However, they both say that football seems much MUCH more violent. In rugby, there (at least I don't think) is a forward pas, and as such you see much more straight old fashioned wrap tackles and the play unfolds in front of you. In the NFL, the forward pass causes the play to happen ON TOP of the player when they can't see. It leads to stuff like Austin Collie getting fucking obliterated for 3 concussions in 3 years.

Sometimes I wonder if hockey has it right.. let the guys fight, let them get it out of their system.

haha alright chief.
sure the glass in a hockey rink is specifically designed to absorb impact,. no fucking shit...guess whats behind the boards in most rinks though, concrete walls... the same fucking concrete that gets covered in RUBBER on a turf field. and if you want to claim that a grass or a turf field is harder than ICE (which also has concrete under it) than you must be a full blown retard. ice will always be harder than earth or turf..always, plus the speed of the game is like 10 times that of football.
honeslty though, I wouldnt expect anything intellegent from a fucking masshole like yourself, nice try though

Yeah, hockey hits can be the most gnarly because both players can be traveling at a much higher rate of speed.

Rugby is off the hook definitely a better sport than American football.

Footballs gay.

Golden Tate is the son of a pro football player- hardly from the hood. Drafted into MOB and NFL and and an all-American, hardly a thug monkey. So no, he was just being ignorant and racist.

because he referred to him as a hood/thug/monkey...look I'm not going to argue about it. Let's just get real, thug/hood/monkey-- all commonly used degrading terms for lower income black people. Go ahead and argue that his comments had nothing to do with race and that white people can be referred to as thug/hood/monkeys but if you do you're just being dishonest imo.
