Football is Violence 

Post#1 » by CablexDeadpool » Mon Mar 5, 2012 7:51 pm

I found this Bounty thing extremely hilarious.


Football is about violence and hurting the other person. If the hit is legal then it is legal.

What is the difference if someone is getting paid in a pool of money or from his salary, a defensive player always have an monetary incentive to knock a player out of a game and hit somebody hard as they can.

It is still violent.

Defensive coaches center gameplans around hitting another player as hard as their defense can to take the player out of the game.

How do you stop Michael Vick...hit him

How do you stop Tom Brady...hit him.

Do you not think a defensive coach is happy as hell if Peyton Manning gets knocked out of a game?

Football is a gladiator sport. Boxing is a gladiator sport. MMA is a gladiator sport. Bullfighting is a gladiator sport.

People like violence and seeing people get hit, punched, and gored.

There's a difference between doing it within the confines of the rules and going outside the rules. The bounty actively promotes going outside the rules. That's wrong, period. You can knock guys out with awesome legal hits, like Ray Lewis and Ray Nitschke and Sam Huff and Jack Lambert have done since the beginning of the NFL.
It's not whether you win or lose, it's how good you look playing the game

It is pretty funny seeing Goodel toeing the line of player safety and pushing his 18 game schedule. ESPN and mainstream media need a story like this during the dull months.
