Admittedly, this one’s impressive.

Bwahahahaha!!! Soccer sissy’s need a guy with a red card to protect them from contact. Let me know when an NFL kicker gets the protection of a red card when he’s making a tackle.

Look, the reason it is called ‘football’ is because you ‘foot’ the ball across the goal line. You don’t hit it, you don’t shoot it, you don’t KICK it (unless you are a soccer player on the football field). . . you FOOT (run, carry) the BALL.
It’s pretty funny you are talking about the differences between the sports and suggesting that the football player would need a medic for playing soccer instead of the soccer player needing a medic for playing football. How far does the goalie run each match? Soccer players don’t often cross mid field – they do, they can, but it generally puts them out of position if they do.
And I know quite a few Europeans who ‘worship at the trough of American football’ too.

Close: I’d say you got hit in the head with a nail, dork.
Quoting yourself in a comment section is pure vanity, but I repeat my invitation, bedwetting English Pig-Dog: I’ll give you an empty soccer field and a week, and you tell me how many times you can create that shot.
I’m guessing you couldn’t run the 10 yards required to strike the ball.

Soccer lovers…..Guys, really, you’re starting to behave like offended cat lovers now.
Relax. It’s all in good fun!

Let’s see, no line of defenders rushing him, kicking a round ball 60 yards, on a bounce, through poles spaced 50% wider than football. I’d say I hit the nail on the head.
I won’t rehash all the arguments from the last 230 comment thread, but think height restriction, non-stationary ball, goalie, but mainly height restiction. Sorry for the late reply had to actually work.
