Quick question

[IPostedWhat]

but football players have a hard time making it past the age of 37?

Not counting any players who were still playing at age 38 & 39, the NFL has had at least 51 players play at the age of 40 and over.

History: Players Who've Played in NFL at Age 40 or Older

lol, I done started a war by one simple joke. I'm going to go to the football main board and tell them how much I like hockey better than football. THAT will show them.

Who cares, Smoke is also the guy (if I'm not mistaken) who thinks that Ray Lewis is innocent, but Ben Roethlisberger is guilty.....and also used Child Sexual Abuse as a reason to take a pot shot at Pennsylvania sports.

:loco:

And let's be honest about one thing here concerning the popularity of the NFL. A good chunk of people out there only watch or follow it because of their fantasy teams.

This is a fact.

I actually watch more football than I do hockey. I love both sports. The sport that I have no interest in is basketball but I have never felt the need to seek out a group of basketball fans and tell them that their sport is stupid becuase I do not prefer to watch it.


Oh and cricket, fuck cricket. That's not a real sport.

Let's not get ahead of ourselves now. That statment is like a coconut that is just too heavy for you to carry.

Is that why hockey players routinely play into their 40's but football players have a hard time making it past the age of 37? Yea, sure sounds like hockey is more of a "mans sport".
A lot of baseball players play into their 40's as well, are they tougher than football players and equally as tough as hockey players?



And LOL @ having a sports championship partly televised on cable tv.
That's right up there with the WNBA, Women's college BB, and the IRL.

Partly televised? You are a fucking retard. And once again you just proved how they are pussies by not playing into later years. But carry on amateur troll.

edit: playing past 40 is very rare as well.

The NBC Sports Group will surround the 2011 NHL Stanley Cup Final between the Western Conference Champion Vancouver Canucks and the Eastern Conference Champion Boston Bruins with primetime coverage of every game on NBC and VERSUS as well as pre- and postgame coverage nationally on VERSUS and locally in Boston on Comcast SportsNet New England.

Umm... yea? partly televised how?

 

[IPostedWhat]

So since we already know that just over 50 NFL players have played past the age of 40, can someone find out how many hockey players have for comparison?

113.

I will admit I thought that number would be a tad bit lower, but not really all that high with all things considered.

 

[anythingispossible]

there are five currently playing now.

Games 1-3, 6-7 were on NBC. Games 4-5 were televised on Versus.
Isn't Versus cable tv? That's what I meant by partly televised on cable tv.
