PT Sports in general involve strategy that's barely a challenge to those overgrown 10 year olds, and puts me to sleep faster than watching the grass grow.

Professional Football or Soccer? Which is more technical? Neither. Which is better? Who cares...

Team sports for children provide an important growth oportunity... that's the only real value of such activities imo, and at that point it doesn't matter a whit which activity someone chooses to participate in.
"Overgrown 10 Year olds!??" Certanly not! They are trained athletes that are amazingly skilled in their chosen profession. So what if their job is to win a game, atleast they make alot money and they like what they do(which is always a very good plus in jobs.) [img]smile.gif[/img] . Not to mention the fact that their job develops their skills and body.
Playing in a professional football team as a job is just like being a professional artist. Drawing is most known as a 'fun childs activity'. It`s fun to draw a pretty flower and the shining(and smiling) sun or whatever [img]smile.gif[/img] . Are Artists 'overgrown ten year olds'? Nope [img]smile.gif[/img] .

Hmm, my mates draw anime. off topic, but what the hell...
Nah I like watching the boys in my little immediate group playing rugby and they don't show American football here. I much prefer playing football to watching it. As for people who say professional football is pants then go and watch their local team playing baseball or whatever, that'ss all it usually is. A local team is really good and gets a lot of money playing football.

[/QUOTE]Hockey

Name something soccer or football have that Hocket doesnt.

I could name plenty of things Hockey has that soocer and football dont.

Like, the most obvious, its played on ice, so ontop of concentrating on the game, you also have to concentrate of ice skating, not slipping.

Its faster then all other sports (well beside vehechular sports of course), theres realy is no downside to it.

I will admit it has slow points, but so does soccer, so does evey sport really. And the players seem so much more classy then all other sports figures.
