| Lucky. We started full pads today and went full contact. I didn't mind the contact as much as I did having to run 5 46's, because stupid people show up late for practice. |

Petrikov. Usually I would hurt you, but you are the fatman, and are allowed to hate sports. |

In my area, you have to wait 3 days before going full contact. Combine started on Monday. Today will be day 3. At least we don't have to play when it's at the peak of heat. We practice from 6-8 PM.

@Dribson I was just doing a shot in the dark, my spanish teacher wasn't the best in the world. But now I know!
@Ice We had about 2 weeks of summer practice and conditioning, and then we have a week of 2-a-days(2 practices a day), but since we have a bunch of players coming from miles around (we are a rural school) we just have one long 4 hour practice from 7AM-11AM.
@2pi While I think hockey is an OK sport, I say football is better because, we don't have to get into little slapfights every five minutes to keep people interested. |

@Pep
Half the time there aren't any fights in the game, and there are MANY things that keep us entertained
For example the hits.
The goals
The stupid fans
and how stupid the refs get. |

We have all the same things in football. Except touchdowns, and PATS instead of Goals.
At one of my football games when I was a freshman, the opposing teams audience start rioting when the Ref made a questionable call. There was one guy leading the entire thing, and just as all hell was about the break lose, our starting center (he was about 6'7'' and 290 lbs) ran full speed and lit up the guy who was "leading" the mob up, knocked him into the crows nest (what we call the building that the radio stations and announcer sit in) and knocked him out cold. The game continued without an interruption.
We later found the center gave the guy a concussion. |

For my area, you just do practice 2 hours a day, 5 days a week during the summer. Then when school starts, it's only 3 days a week. Lucky school starts September 4th this year.

Ever since last year, people have really been caring about concussions lately. At my school, you have to attend a concussion training and turn in a sports physical in order to try out for a sport.

@barksdale
Ever heard of conditioning? Coaches make you sprint back and forth across the field with barely any rest.

Barksdale. We have to run 46's. You sprint down 40 yards, sprint back forty yard, repeat 3 times, that is one. On average we run 9 of these a day, because idiots are late for practice.
Ok so lets do some math. 40+40= 80x3 = 240 yards.
240 Yards x 9 = 2160 Yards, roughly 2 miles if I can remember correctly
Add all the running we do throughout the practice, another 2 miles.
So about 4 miles a day, plus we are in full pads, and must have brutal physical contact.
Say what you want, soccer is a sissy sport compared to football. |
