Message: [QUOTE="Hamm.0, post: 2178431, member: 1852"] The unenlightened have obviously never watched an NFL game in its entirety before. They wear protective gear because they are getting hit EVERY PLAY! In league, yawnion and (allegedly in) AFL, players get tackled only when they have possession. In NFL, you get blocked or at least attempted to be blocked every single play. The entire offensive line (including tight ends) get smashed, off the ball, each play. In turn the defensive line (including linebackers or anyone who rushes the QB on a specific play) need protection in order to survive the collisions every single play. You reckon smallish guys like Wallace, Lockyer, Hunt could get smashed every single play without protective equipment? LOLZNOTACHANCE. However all that said and done, I have absolutely no doubt that if Australia had grown up on NFL, we'd be one of the best in the world, same same if the US grew up on League. All footballers (minus GayFL & Soccer players) have an athletic ability, they have tailored to their chosen sport. [/QUOTE]
