As I was browsing around for articles on tonights Bengals/Ravens game I ran across this article and this quote. www.msnbc.msn.com/.../ "I mean, this isn't a soft sport. We don't play chess. This isn't swimming. This isn't one of those kind of sports. It's football. It takes a man to play this game, and to play this game you have to have passion.'' I had to laugh.

    I think the article drew first blood anyhow. My view is that the phsyical punishment side of sports is irrelevent when comparing them. I think Lance Armstrong is as tough as any Footballer...and if I had to be cite my awe for a type of athlete it would be the Decathlete or the Triathlete...if that's what they're called.
