Brett Favre is now with the Jets

[Spartacus]

I cant wait to see him. Finally the jets have a QB that can make a difference. I just hope its not much of an adjustment for him, because the jets fans and the media will swallow him up. Its not green bay where he is loved by all. He has to reprove himself here. Either way I think it will make a big difference for the jets and will compete against the pats this year now for the AFC east

they had two ruby guys, both sounded European. One guy hit the other full contact they had sensors on their bodies and then they did the same for football, boxing, and the other was hockey.

you sound like the black hole guy......"what color do u think the scientist was" give me a break.

so a "football" hit is harder than a rugby hit, fullstop? nonsense, mate. a tackle is a tackle. even if that show wasnt rigged (which 99% it was) just because one tackle is harder than another doesnt mean thats the way it is all the time.

Yes, without a doubt it is. A tackle is not a tackle when you have all of that force, weight and momentum coming at you at that type of speed. Rugby players are not as fast as professional NFL players.

pffffffft "look at me, i need to wear a suit of armour and a helmet to play contact sports" set of fairies

let me guess, this program was american? there is no such thing as a "rugby hit" a tackle is a tackle. these programs are always set up, mate

Bro, if an American football team played rugby against a euro trash rugby team, I can guarantee the filthy euros would be feeling it long after the yanks.

Plus, my cousin plays rugby in college after playing football his whole life. He said the tackling is a lot different than in football. It's more of a tackle than a leveling hit. Both players would suffer if they tried to hit like they do in football.

psssh... A snaggletoothed limey fugger telling us our sports are weak. This from a gov't and judicial system that wears powdered wigs.

utter nonsense. who says rugby players are not as fast as nfl players? take jonah lomu for example-the guy was about 270lbs and could run 100 in about 10.7. that would break you, simple as.

filthy euros? snaggletoothed limey fugger? you should learn to watch your mouth, who the fuck do you think you are?

and no, the "fithy euros" would not feel it first, as they are used to playing an 80min game, with one ten minute break, the 40 min halves are played constant, not stopping every 30 seconds for a rest, and the american footabll teams would be getting broken in half with out their ridiculous padding and helmets.

refer to the video i posted if you want to see some levelling hits.
