Football

NFL is the ultimate league for professional football players. This sport is all about gaining the advantage over the opposition, and that means steamrolling them at every opportunity. Don't let all the protective gear fool you for a second – when a 300-pound athlete stops you dead in your tracks, it's like getting T-boned by a semi on an icy road. Ask any of the NFL players who have been involved in the hardest tackles ever, and they’ll certainly attest to the brute force of these bone-crunching sacks.

Would you believe that the testosterone-fueled sport of professional football is also the sport with one of the highest arrest records in the country. Makes sense, given the power, ferocity, and adrenaline-laden nature of the NFL. These players are tough as nails. It’s gridiron. If you can't take the hits, and dish out plenty of punishment of your own, you’re going to get benched, sacked, or dropped from consideration.

The NFL Draft is when magic happens. Draft selections can make or break a team, and immortalize football players in the annals of NFL history. In this post, I'm going to explore 6 NFL Draft selections that turned out to be sensational picks. These players became giants of the NFL, leading from the front, and steamrolling the competition in the process.

The XFL is all the rage. This professional football league is the brainchild of none other than the WWEs very own Vince McMahon. Never one to shy away from a challenge, the WWE CEO took matters into his own hands, and shouldered the burden on his broad shoulders. At inception, McMahon pledged to invest a whopping sum of $500 million in the XFL over the course of the first 3 years of the league. The XFL garnered substantial credibility with the appointment of a football commissioner in the form of Oliver Luck, and this time around the XFL seems to have staying power.

Football fans can’t get enough of this pulse-pounding game. It’s the ultimate high-impact, bruising tussle where titans of the pitch lock horns in physical showdowns. Dominance is the objective. Bone-crushing plays and spectacular acrobatics often result. But that’s the nature of the beast – football is life. In the US, we were all ecstatic to get a crack at more adrenaline-fueled football entertainment when the XFL was formed.
