To be fair, Wondolowski played most of the SEASON with a broken foot, not a game. And you definitely use your feet playing soccer more than you use it playing football |

@ddude
1. how do they measure the hit strength of each? 2. what source did that tweet get its info from? 3. nhl players don't take as many hits, considering you have to tackle someone every down |

Why do we argue about who is the toughest, argue about why sports suck geesh

There are far more vicious hits in the NHL.
They're traveling with more momentum and force because they're sliding over ice.
Yes, there are vicious hits in football, and I don't discredit that. But there aren't many hits like this:

| Their hit harder because they move faster, those stats are irrelevant. |

Well (yes I'm a fan of both sports), there isn't a penalty for overhitting in the NHL, unless it's after the whistle.
I hate Brett Hull and the 1998-99 Dallas Stars. This is a siggy. |

The way they hit is so different.
Hockey players charge up with there torso and explode their force onto them
while in football the average tackle is a wrap up easy takedown.

Lol. In soccer if you hit like an NHL or NFL player you're gone, straight red and maybe a suspension
