Why isn’t slide tackling allowed in American football?
Why isn’t slide tackling allowed in American football?
It is, it's just a lot harder to take someone down with a slide tackle than wrapping them up
casue dey use their hands n shit
because you can use your hands and it's easier to tackle with your hands and upper body
you never played sports?
No, only soccer
In football, brains are less useful than legs
why do you think tackling with your arms is illegal in soccer? because it's too easy
Because amerilards are unable to lift themselves up once they are on the floor.
I unironically believe this to be true
Whoa calm down Heinrich. If you have to restrict half of the main appendages humans use to make it a challenge, maybe your hobby isn't that great
Why would that be?
What if your hobby gives you obesity and life changing head trauma?
Glad you agree that soccer is a hobby
>What if your hobby gives you obesity and life changing head trauma?
I don't play professional football and don't care
says the guy whose sport literally doesn't allow players over a certain height
>slide tackling in american football
that sounds incredibly dumb when you can just use your arms and literally do whatever you want instead
since when is there a height restriction?
if you are over 6'8", its just smarter to play basketball
the fuck?
you cant tackle with arms because you cant touch anything but the ball when tackling
Why would you slide tackle when you can launch yourself at someone head first and get on the highlight reel? C'mon bruh
coon collision's problem is precisely that it is not as one-dimensional as proper football. it leads to all kinds of endless shitty rules and stoppages and general stagnancy. it has no fuckin flow
When we played in uni we had a referee come to us to explain the rules to the freshers
One fresher asked if he could kick players or karate kick players to tackle them
Ref said no, so he left, the semen slurping sport wasn't for him
Why do soccer players fake injuries?
Different goals.
A slide tackle is to knock away the ball and steal possession not necessarily to knock over the player.
The goal of a tackle in American football is to knock the opposing player to the ground to stop the progress of the play.
It is more efficient to knock a player to the ground by wrapping them up with our arms and forcing them down then it is to slide at them and hope they don't leap over you.
Brainlets when will they learn.
To satisfy crazy soccer/football parents
>doesnt tackle the ball with the arms
They're trying to get a free kick or a penalty. The other player also can get a yellow card and if he has a yellow card already he will get a red card. Also if the other team gains momentum, faking an injury can be used to "slow it down". It's cheating. The ref can give you a yellow card if he notices that you're pretending.
This
>proper football
soccer
>implying slide tackling someone at full speed won't immediately bring them to the ground
>b-but m-muh tackling is b-better
You still can get stiff armed, or worse, you can fuck your spin up.
Faggot liberals--when will they learn?
