Why I Vote The NFL Over The NBA

I won't waste much time on this so here's my 10 reasons why I like the NFL over the NBA:

My favorite team

Is the Oakland Raiders. Not in the NBA, not in the  MLB, but in the NFL. I treasure the Raiders 10 times more than any other team in the NBA.

Contact

Look at the picture above, what do you see? Watch any Jack Tatum highlights, what do you see? Watch Chauncey Billups shoot a long jumper, what do you see? Answer: contact, contact, and no contact (unless you call swish a contact)!

Strategy

In the NBA every game has this. In the NFL most games have this. So it looks like there's more in the NBA than the NFL, huh? Wrong. From pass near the sidelines to run the ball, I think there's more strategy in football than basketball.

The intentional foul

Boooorrringg...The game over yet? From two minutes left, down by 12, with only three team fouls THE WHOLE GAME, to...a minute left, down by 18, with six team fouls.

Playoff system

Maybe this is just me, but I like single elimination better.

Weather conditions

In the NBA, playing on the road is harder because it's someone else's court. In the NFL, it's usually weather that makes it harder (this only occurs at most stadiums). Waaaaayy more of a challenge.

The fans

This is totally only my observation, but, I have noticed that fans go a little more 'into it' in the NFL than the NBA.

Blocking

This is what I love watching it happen in real football—two men pushing each other to sack or protect the QB.

Don't have to be fast, we allow fats!

Notice in basketball how everyone on the court has to be at least somewhat fast to be a starter. I think we all know that's different in football.

Injuries

This might seem cruel, but just think—wouldn't it be easier in the NFL if no one got injured? J-russ, Bo Jackson, and other athletes who dealt somehow with injury? I know, this is in basketball too, but not as often.
