Perhaps, I'd doubt he'd be strong enough I'd emphasize Baseball and Hockey, I'd love to have my kid in the latter so I can heckle the punks on the other team and how they barely escaped the coat hanger |

| Yes, because you need barely anything to play football. Even gk stuff costs a small amount. |

Futbol was originally called soccer, until the 1950's when the NFL started to gain popularity.

| Unlike soccer players, when our leg gets gently tapped by a shoe, we do not fall to the ground and convulse violently. |

@Apo Goalies are different. I can collide with another player at high speed, and get up immediately. Not all football players dive. |

| I was referring to American Football btw. I would obviously have my child play soccer considering I play it myself and already a youth coach. |

in a quarter, probably 11 minutes is the time the play is actually going on
in a game it's probably close to 44-55. |

| in a quarter, you are getting 35 minutes of replays, watch coaches be angry, having teams line up, and then like 3 minutes of actual game play. |
