Comment on How come soccer and tennis never caught on in the states? Also why hasn't there been an NFL team vs a Soccer Team and vice versa. Just to prove which is the better sport? Details inside.

I was one of the football players who would’ve been hating life, if not outright died. That being said, I did enjoy going out and playing a bit of soccer just for the cardio. Reminds me of a line I heard long ago… “Play away…just remember, even boys can play.”

But I’m kind of enamored by this thought experiement… what if we took both teams and put them in a third arena… say track and field or something? Should be a fair way to accurately test athleticism without favoring either side in overall scoring. Sure, certain events would favor certain builds better…but overall I think it could balance fairly well.
