American Football's Biggest Dives

American Football's Biggest Dives

American Football's Biggest Dives
15 September 2013

Whoever said rugby's a man's game clearly never told American football players.

Premier League footballers don't half get a raw deal. Handed multi million pound contracts they never asked for, jeered by home fans if they don't score six goals a game and then hounded by the media if they lose their footing and take a tumble.

Ok, maybe certain football players do err on the theatric at times (*cough* Ashley Young), but if there's one things you can say about their swan-diving antics - at least they're half believable. American football players on the other hand... not so much. If you ever thought that the stacked, fridge-sized NFL athletes were the epitome of masculinity - look away now.
