    Football is a joke compared to soccer
    ESPN2 is showing a soccer game played at Patriots field and the soccer lines are at least 10 yards wider on each side of the field. I didn't realize that football players have to cover only this small of a field. How does Randy Moss get so wide open

      With all the roids football players take, they might die in the field if they use soccer dimensions.

        Both games utilize 11 players per team. This tells me that the cornerbacks are quite shitty if Randy Moss gan get so wide open with such a small field. Unless Randy Moss is superman.

            Soccer players are more physically fit.

                And why do baseball players wear that big glove? Cricketers use their hands, that's what they were made for.

                      Football players are wusses and baseball players should have to catch the ball in their mouth.

                          I was being serious with the baseball thing and i'm a fan of baseball but why do they need to wear a breadbasket on their hand? Baseball would be so much more intersting if they had to catch that ball without a glove, would seperate good center fielders and great center fielders.

                            Watered down sport for no marks. Not one of them outfielders in baseball would make it in cricket.. I laugh when I hear commentators say "what an amazing catch". He's wearing a mit ffs, it's not that hard, try bare handed and then we'll see how good they really are.

                            Rubbish game.

                              Soccer fields don't have a fixed dimension, the home team can adjust them based on tactics.

                              Fields may be 91–120 m (100–130 yd) length and 45–91 m (50–101 yd) in width, provided that the pitch does not become square.

                                Soccer does require much more endurance

                                Football requires being a better athlete

                                  altough those are fifa-rules, every self-respecting national soccer union has its own rules with a lot less difference.

                                    I'd disagree with that. Soccer requires more endurance as well as being a better athlete. American Football requires more strength and power, especially upper body.

                                    Wide Receivers and Corners are probably the only players that could make it as soccer players because they train and are built the same way.
