How much dexterity could it possibly require? probably less than just some. I bet being able to throw a football where you want requires a tad more dexterity.
Football is much more physical and requires alot more from your body than wacking another with a stick. granted, wacking with sticks is much more fun and can feel alot better as you vent your frustrations than football, but football does demand more physical fitness in my modest opinion.

Em, well, if you just beat each other with sticks randomly not that much, I guess. But if you want to parry... :rolleyes:
And how many times you throw that stupid ball anywhere? Like, once in a while? For the most part it's jumping on top of each other. I watch TV football and they jump all the time or w/e and they throw that ball very rarely. Fencing > throwing a football ball

That's the problem with football. It's unhealthy.

Football players are overgrown, have too much muscle, and they are still slow and clumpsy. I supposed football players are supposed to run like hell chases them but they are slower than the track, lacrosse, soccer teams. I mean, they look like ogres or something... sheesh... they only look good while they are wearing the helmets.
I'm not saying that stick beating requires all that much I'm just pointing out that football is the wrong sport to bring up.

I disagree with football being unhealthy. Its a sport and it involves different muscle and mentallity than other sports. Part of it is raw power that can only be brought out by strong emotion. Maybe thats why women haven't completely got a hold of it, men and women are just wired differently.
And like I said, its only your taste. Football players aren't meant for long runs like those other sports you mentioned. They are sprinters, it goes well for the momentum they need to break through the other teams' defense.
I don't know how it was brought up, but here I'll agree with you in that they are very different pastimes.
The name caught my eye and I read a little. Equinox, have you ever played football? Been to or just watched football players practice? It's stenuous. It isn't all determined by your size and strength even on the line. It requires technique and leverage. Positions are different from others but swinging a stick around doesn't even compare unless your a friggin' jedi. We're all entitled to our oppinions about sports. I, personally, don't play football. I don't like watching football besides the superbowl but I admire the people that play it for having the balls to do so. (baseball is my type of game to watch, I don't play any sports because of a slight hand/eye coordination problem *cough* I blame my mother)
EDIT:

Did you get beat up or gang raped by a bunch of NFL players or something?
I watched football and I have a friend who plays football and I saw football practices and that is why I don't like it. I think anyone can play any sport and the pressure in each sport is more or less equal, except different aspect. I just consider football unhealthy because athletes are looking for weight and muscle. Wrestling is a lot better, for instance. I'm sure a wrestler can beat up a football player no matter how big that football player is.
In other words, nothing to admire. For some people it's a lot easier to get beat up all the time than to train their agility in other sports. Some people just can't grow that big so they go do fencing or gymnastics or w/e. The sports are all more or less equal I just think football harms you unless you are a full-scale rich NFL player but that's another story.
No I haven't got beat up by anybody and I think it would be pretty lame for a bunch of overgrown football players to beat up a girl, wtf.
Haha sorry I didn't know you were a girl. In that case I understand why you don't like football, sorry.(my fault for assuming) And wrestling is fake.. sorry to break it to ya. They take damage from it but its all staged. I'v seen adventisements for "live" fights with footage of the fights on them.

Why do I absolutely love men's lacrosse then? :rolleyes: I mean, why is it football... what's so special about football?

I think you are confusing wrestling with RAW or something. I'm not talking about the wrestlers that are as big as football players, I'm talking about the real deal. You think they don't fix football? They fucking fix anything.
Lacrosse people bash each other a LOT. Which is why I like it compared to girl's lacrosse which is a bit too cheezy for my liking but I don't have a choice. >_<

Hell... I'm there, I'll go after the bigger people. Most of the time, they're the easiest to hit.
To find the truth, you must risk everything.

Anyway, sticks are not fun. Flails ftw!

I would actually like football if it wasn't for that jumping of 10 people on one player. But it's just too unbalanced.
