Football started

obviously you have never played football.....lineman have to be the smartest players on the field. there are so many plays and different blocking assignments you have to memorize. Lineman is by far the hardest position to play. And at my school the practices for lineman are alot harder than the backs practice the line runs more and hits more. I know that because im a linebacker so i have to practice with the backs on some days and with the line on other says.
 
Ohhhhh the days....man I miss football, a lot actually. It was so fun over the summer because we killed a bunch of teams in scrimmages, but then we ended up fucking the dog in gametime and went .500 ahhhhh i miss scoring touchdowns claim.
 
hey do you guys lift for 3 hours a day at 6 am and then condition for the next hour ALL SUMMER LONG???? oh yeah i bet half of the kids on your little pussy soccer team couldnt lift what ALL of the kids at my school do.At my school we practice right next to the soccer field and all they do is scrimmage and dont say they suck cus last year they got to state semifinals so yea we have 10 second plays but we also score more than once or twice and those 10 second plays are WAYYYYY more interesting than your 90 minute or whatever whole games
 
and yes i started lifting 3 weeks ago and 2 a days are end of July but only becasue ohio doesnt allow it after some date
 
lifting for me was all throughout the school year. through summer, throughtout football season. what position do you play ?
 
im a lineman and a linebacker but our coaches split the practice up between offense and defense everything is split and broken down in to your specific positions then built back up into a team

but to answer the thread creator, yes camp was last week from 3-5 and it was upper 80s to lower 90s all last week, we lift 3 days a week at 6 and have 7on 7 every tuesday, we start practice on aug 13th and yes we have two a days
 
are you 12? that was the stupidest thing i've read in here so far. chances are an in shape soccer player isn't gonna be able to lift more than some 300+ lb. lineman. why would you need to? you don't need to be ripped to play soccer like in football. right now we lift 3 times a week in soccer. do i wake up at 6 for soccer? fuck no. we have conditioning at 1 in the afternoon. oh and no we don't lift for 3 hours a day, that would be plain stupid. i doubt you lift for 3 hours a day. you might wait for an hour and lift 2 at most. and the thing about the plays is just complete personal opinion. have you been talking about like middle school football or something dude?
 
while his post was completley ridiculous and horribly written and stated, you didn't really prove anything he said wrong...

you almost supported it

and middle schoolers who play football don't lift much at all, let alone for 3 hours a day...what's your point? (i don't disagree with you, but i doubt you'll change his opinion, that's all i'm saying)
 
Dude I'm pretty sure football takes willpower...people have been telling you all season "you're too small" or, "you're too slow". it's the 4th quarter, you have a headache, you're tired, you are down by 6, not to mention how you are beaten the fuck up because you have gotten 30 carries so far in the game, you probably have a concussion but you could give a flying fuck because theres 1:05 left in the game and you have to score a touchdown next play...you are tired as fuck, your muscles don't wanna go any longer but your mind has to keep telling your muscles to keep sprinting no matter how badly you wanna jog, because in the end you know it's all worth it when you put up a W and to prove haters wrong.

Football takes no endurance?

Oh and if you have ever sprinted 10 huge hills in a row you will understand exactly how tiring it is when you have to keep up with and beat the skill players who run 4.5's. If you have ever run 10 gassers (sideline-sideline-sideline-sideline) in under 38 seconds each time you will understand how tiring football is. That's in full pads by the way which is (without the helmet) 8 pounds total. That's just conditioning. When you get to gametime its worse because you REALLY sprint 100% on every single play in order to be successful.

Football involves a stop and go full sprint endurance, not a long distance endurance like xc or soccer.
 
I love football but i had to quit. I mean daily double five days a week almost all summer. FUCK that, i hate it when poeple get that hardcore about football and it turns into a competition on who can practice and work out the most, seriously it was ruining my life, i didnt realise till now though.
 
Dude you can argue that for any sport. Can you run 5k's until you blackout? Pushing yourself so hard your body shuts down?

How about this for a workout, we used to do your 'up hill runs' on crack. And by that i mean we would do quarter mile sprints UP SAND DUNES and you had to hit times under 1:10 (at least I did).

Every sport is hard, and they are all hard in different ways. Soccer takes alot more skill, endurance and finesse. Football takes power and speed. Running takes huge amounts of willpower and endurance. Golf takes tremendous amounts of skill and talent.

They are all different. This is a stupid argument.
 
you couldnt have said it better man our schools on a hill so you can imagine all the hills we gotta do and the first part iss soooo true thats how i always feel especially since im small
 
My team never stops. We go all year long. our only off time is in late December.

Football = life at my school
 
dude come on. u have no fucking clue what ur talking about. where the hell do u live, fucking vermont? oh yeah theres some real tough football in the northeast, NOT. Seriously, go down to the south and see how tough the football is, youd get the shit beatin out of you.obviously you havnt played soccer because u dont know how much endurance it takes, trust me u dont wanna play soccer, u dont wanna show up to try outs and run miles and miles until u puke. yeah football is tough, the sprints are tiring ,ive done em. the drills are tough, but its not as bad as you make it out to be. anyone can take a hit. getting hit doesnt take skill. delivering hits doesnt even take that much skill.

lets just put it this way: a football player would have a tougher time making it in soccer than a soccer player would have making it in football
 
yeah sorry but the northeast is prettyyy good at football especially all of the prep schools in New york and massachussetts and the south is over rated man here in cincinnati ohio we host a tournament at the bengals stadium and schools from across the countrt come and play us and remember two a days on MTV? hoover high? well colerain high school KICKED THEIR ASS and moeller also played a team from the south and killed them so it's not just the south buddy
 
you never gave up trying to make peoples dick's hard in the forest.

football and soccer are both physically demanding sports. However American Football is much harder to play. i play football and soccer and i can vouch that football is much harder physically and mentally to play. Physically i've endured several concussions, chipped my C4 in my neck, not to mention all the broken fingers as well. Mentally, ive had to survive 2-a-days 8 hours a day, 6 days a week, for over a month, not to mention mandatory lifting and works begin 30 days after the season is over.

 
as soon as i read the title of this thread i knew it would be a hugeee argument hahaha

my views are soccor and football are both tough in their own ways

football requires more brute strenght over and over again (depending what position)

and soccor requires lots and lots of stamina (again depending on what position, we all know the goalie runs all around)

*I played soccor for 6 years then sdwitched to football---and im not saying i know everything, just for the record..
 
thats a dirty lie,

o-line, and recivers need to memorise and know so much shit

and cornerbacks hardly have to memorise anything, especially in highschool

on another note, soccer is way harder than football
 
i agree with you because i am a receiver and a corner ...receiver you need to know where to block and your routes and corner you stay with the receiver but i do not agree with the last comment

 
it actually takes much skill to hit. football players will know, and learn to not give yourself away on what your gonna do and how your going to hit them
 
dude seriously drop it...... every sport has its strengths and weaknesses..... and if ur bro was on ur name y r u still actin the same way as before???? i think u jus like attention..... learning not to give yourself away is the dumbest thing ive eva heared u want the rb to no ur there and to no ur goin to hit him so that way hes always thinkin bout u and ur hits and not the play.... u need to rely think before u post....
 
all i'm trying to say is they are two completely different sports and require two different types of "conditioning" or whatever. kid is ignorant as shit.
 
i dunno about that. A football player would suck at soccer, but a soccer player would suck at football. And chances are that the soccer player would get hurt.
 
football is awesome i agree we spell it futbol though
