KC, when you leave it alone you will stop looking like you don't know what you're talking about. You obviously don't! At that point, I will leave it alone too.
Good gravy, I feel like I'm trying to prove to you that 2+2=4. It does, really. There is so much wrong with what you said, I don't quite know where to begin. To begin with, the "foolishness" began with the guy you're defending, not me. Did you miss that fact? You must have because you've railed on ad nauseum about my argument foot vs hand, but totally ignored that Monster is the guy who made that point to begin with.
Secondly, a soccer team has more than one player who can score a goal - the team is not so dependent on any 1 player. The QB on the other hand is an active part of every single offensive play.
Thirdly, maybe you didn't know this, but a LOT less accuracy is required to score a goal in soccer than is required to get a pass to a receiver in football. The soccer goal is HUGE compared to a receiver's reach/path. A soccer goal is 2-dimensional and stationary. A QB's target is 3 dimensional and moving.
All of that really doesn't matter and misses the central point, which, for some reason you have chosen to ignore. The point is that in a single post, Monster ridiculed the country you live in, our sport of football, and a standout high school athlete who has suffered a serious injury that could affect his future in a big way. Let's hope that's not the case, but a little more respect is due the guy than he's getting here.
