High School to the NFL... why not? - Page 2

Yeah it is a physical thing more than anything else. It is different for the NBA because you don't necessarily have to be as strong as everyone else to survive. 18 year olds are simply not developed enough to compete in the physical manner that football presents.

Yeah, comparing NBA and NFL is like comparing apples and oranges, it just can't be done. It's hard to believe, but in this case I think they have the best interest of the players at heart.
