[QUOTE="Toko_11, post: 604813, member: 39484"] I don't understand why Hardest men are the Largest men.. If anything the smaller guys have a lot more at stake... If everyone on the field was smaller than me id be a great player too.. what always amazes me is when 5 foot 6 guys play 80 minutes and tackle those giants that keep attacking them over and over again.. big guys don't feel much when tackling a 140 pound winger.. but when you are smaller every tackle hurts like hell.. I had experience as both.. In high school i grew up faster than other guys so being a larger bloke in the crowd I had no trouble fighting off 3 or 4 people who were just 1 inch shorter than me and didn't even feel much pain.. however in college I was one of the smaller lads and the It took a lot more to perform better under those conditions, I always left the field with and injury or excruciating pain! That's why i think Centers are the toughest bunch on the field. [/QUOTE]
