SEMI PRO FOOTBALL...

[qbkilla]

bro i love football if i were you id do it, its alot more fun than bodybuilding and i dont think the injury risk is any greater than the risks a bodybuilding lifestyle poses to your self. i have buddies who play and they love it, trying to get my little brother to join a team.

i think this thread was a mistake to bring up as proof that semi pro is anything but backyard cornhole with pads

pay to play, pay for surgery, play with total amateurs with no respect??????
sounds like a good time
If you played in college and couldn't make it to the next level, why would you insult yourself, the game and your coaches that had such an impact on your life and fool yourself into thinking what you were doing is nothing more then a joke that Will Farel makes fun of

I didn't, after college, but a few teammates did...some did semi-pro, some went over to rugby...some have a higher tolerance for contact sports than others.

Its like playing for a D3 college team that is just ok and high risk of injury with nothing to gain in return unless you just like to be competitive i would pick something safer to be competitive at. Especially if your getting into late 20s early 30s injury risk just goes up from there.

IMO players still play fast and everyone can hit. healing and recovering were the biggest thing that affected me. (don't play any more)

I played 2 years while in JCO then went to play 2 years at Div 1AA. It was fun,lots of different characters but nowhere near the level of 1AA. The respect, attitudes and basic discipline were not there. Lots of wannabe superstars. Now we did play the local police team which had a team, they were not great athletes but the discipline and low penalties made them good.
