Well I'm not saying football players are pussies or anything like that. But honestly, a football player plays 16 games a season, whereas a hockey player (hopefully) plays 82. Much more grueling schedule. Plus football players are on the field less (offense, defense, etc) I'm not saying hockey players are some kinda marathon men or anything, 'cause compared to soccer players they're nothing special in terms of endurance. But I think they gotta work harder on a more consistant basis, type thing.
