What? The soccer supporters' comeback to this lame(but very true) thread is to say how American football players would fair if they played rugby? . I would say nearly all American professional football players that weigh less than 260 pounds would do pretty well in rugby, as opposed to the handful of soccer players that would do well in American football. I mean a better comparison would be if you just reciprocated the proposition by saying how well would American football players would play in soccer.
