How is football players different from soldiers?????????? There are more soldiers than professional athletes.  :mental:

The St. Louis Rams are not too thrilled about it.

Rams officials distance team from Ty Nsekhe after controversial tweets

Quote
St. Louis Rams officials released a statement Tuesday distancing the team from former player Ty Nsekhe, who appeared to be bashing the military Monday on Twitter.

"On Monday, numerous media outlets published reports regarding comments made on Twitter by Ty Nsekhe, a former Rams offensive lineman. Many of these reports mistakenly identified Nsekhe as a current member of the Rams organization. Nsekhe was released by the team on August 31, 2013 and no longer has any affiliation with the St. Louis Rams," the statement said.

"While it is typically not our policy to comment on players who are no longer with our team, in this instance we thought it was important due to the reprehensible comments toward our military. The opinions Nsekhe shared via social media are his own and are completely contradictory to the values of our organization and the priority we place on military and veteran appreciation.

Considering I've done a bit of both (wearing football and battle helmets), I know the one involving a facemask is much easier and less stressful.

**** that idiot.

It's the soldier not the football player who protects his right to be stupid on Twitter.

Actually, it's pretty damn hard work to kill someone when they're trying to kill you first, they aren't limited to 11 players on the field, there's no clock and no time-outs, and there aren't any refs or rules.

Oh, there are occasionally refs on the field, but they're usually working for the other team. :cheersmate:

Well, I didn't want to make it too complicated, but there are some (Sort of) rules, which only apply to your own side, and they are devised by bureaucrats and in-bred hereditary Ivy-Leaguers in a far-off land for reasons largely irrelevant to actual combat, and who won't have to stick their own personal dicks on the chopping block trying to follow them.

Plus, there is the fact that your "coaches" are hampering your offense with chicken-shit rules of engagement.
