Empire Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 McCarthyism killed what was a fairly popular sport in America, believe it or not. And from there it gained the foreigner sentiment which evolved into pansy, Nowadays it is a fairly popular sport, especially in a participatory context and the only people who see it as pansy are those who probably never played sports at all.

Head_Hunter Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 Yeah, the game soccer was adorned in the 9th century medieval period or times played firstly in England, but the modern day soccer originated in the 19th century, that was how the transition came about and not the type played in 9th century teams that evolved around 'Folk football, in which teams competed to catch a pig's bladder from one end to another lol.

Justin11 Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 I love soccer more often, I love basketball, tennis, baseball, swimming and sprinting etc, most than any other. Football have been around in the early centuries which is above 200 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
egghead Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 I have a problem with the word "manlier." It is gender biased. I enjoy soccer more than football Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clasher Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 Soccer is still a good sport as much as football. But I enjoying watching a soccer game more. Soccer has been my first let me since I knew what it was at about 6, years old and till date it has remained my favorite "manlier" or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 Honestly, after watching some NFL in recent times, American football is definitely tougher to play - just look at some of these hits: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have you to be bulky in size to play the game that's why they wear a lot of protective gear . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Football and Rugby are two crazy sports can you imagine being at the bottom of a pile with 5+ 300 lb men on top of you? Rugby is even worse - they don't even wear any safety equipment. There have been so many stories of former NFL players suffering long-term brain damage among other things from being hit so hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
