Another day, another video of Kaka playing a bit of ‘girly, rugby-with-shoulder pads Yankball’ (as my Dad would have it) with 83-year old Disney stalwart Mickey Mouse…
There you go.

Girly, that’s why American football is world renowned for its players diving at the first sign of contact to draw a penalty. Oh wait, I think that’s the other football…
It’s funny that Brits think American football is girly because it’s played with pads, when in actuality they have to wear pads because the collisions are a lot more frequent at the “you could do serious damage level.” I’ve watched a fair bit of rugby, so I know that there are serious hits in that code as well, but most of the contact occurs in a form more akin to wrestling than full out contact. Watch a wide receiver come across the middle and get absolutely laid out by a DB. You’ll see why they wear the pads, and it ain’t cause they’re “girly.”
the so called “tackles” in american football are actually just hits by throwing your body, the players just think they’re invincible because of the ridiculously huge padding they wear. This is why so many players end up with head, neck and back injuries. Rugby tackles require more skill at bringing the opponent down, not just any retard throwing his body and ending up severely injuring himself! Yes, rugby is far better than american football!!
Thank you for proving my point. I didn’t say it required more skill, I said it is more dangerous, i.e. less girly. QED.
Football players girly? Cocky pricks, yes. Girly, no.
rugby is the real one that’s why american football is girly becaus they are wearing pads
Still, pads or not, these world class athletes are hurling themselves into someone’s blind side. Rugby is just barbaric, and that doesn’t make football girl, just less manly in comparison.
@Grant, less girly? Please, why is it when american footballers bust a finger they sit out the rest of the match? even the next couple a matches? That is pretty girly if you ask me. Rugby players finish matches with broken noses!!
