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.

  • Why would they? A football field is only 100 yards long. I'm assuming the 40 became the standard because it's close to the distance a football player would need to run on a typical play... Anyway, these threads are always the same. Geek just said earlier that they do have timed mile rules. If you don't like the threads, why bother reading them? I think most people were just having fun.
