What does that asshole Bleenor have to say now?

    Soccer players spend more time laying down on the turf than football players do. More surface contact - more cancer. I read that somewhere.
    If they would stop flopping that problem would solve itself.

    Maybe it's a gay cancer. Like the AIDS.

    I'm hearing that's why Stringfellow left the team.

    This thread delivers. I gave more up votes than Sark WR scholarship offers.

    It's more along the lines of these goalkeepers are diving and whatever happens in soccer and they end up ingesting these little rubber pellets. Obviously these things are small and if they get stuck in the mouth, they'll be spit out, but repeated ingestion of rubber isn't good for the body.

    I don't think you'll see Field Turf go away for football... which I know is why we're all reading this thread.

    As someone that plays some indoor soccer and goalie myself, I don't know if I've ever noticed ingesting any of the rubber ... but then again, I also don't go diving around face first too often.

    You would think that someone when they design this kind of stuff would sit back and think ... hey, if people are going to go diving on the ground and ingest these things, probably not a good idea.
