[QUOTE="SpartaChris, post: 275585, member: 1007"] American style football is a long ways from becoming an Olympic sport. For starters, in order to be able to be an Olympic sport, it needs to be something both sexes can participate in. While I'm not saying women can't play football (I saw them play Hockey and they could all kick my ***), football isn't popular enough world wide to create a women's league also. Next, the only way you'd be able to sell it would be if active NFL players weren't on the roster. The roster would have to [I]maybe[/I] include practice squad, but mostly it would be made up of college guys, or even people who have been cut over the years. Possibly even UFL or Arena League players, though they still might be too good. And yes, we would absolutely dominate, same as we'd get owned if Cricket were an Olympic sport. [/QUOTE]
