Football should follow baseball, they should have rain delays when it rains. People can get hurt.


You have got to be kidding me! People can get hurt because it is raining. That is the kind of weather that makes a football game more fun to watch. Players have to concentrate more when it is rainy because the ball is slippery. They get mud all over themselves. To say that Football should have rain delays is just plain dumb. I can't imagine watching a grounds crew cover the huge field of a football field.


your a bum. Football should also cancel games when it rains or snows or is really cold. Its just not fair to the players.


ok, so now i am a bum for submitting my argument. Football should cancel games because of bad weather because its not fair to the players. WHAT!!!!! Most players love playing in the rain. Remember how good of a game the SnowBowl was in NE a few years ago....that was an amazing game, because the weather made it an amazing game. Or the Freeze Bowl in GB, the temperature was below zero!!!! that was a great games. Football should not cancel or postpone or delay games because of weather. Weather makes the game grrreat!


OMG.....how am I losing this won??? it makes perfect sense, if baseball players arent sissys for delaying a game for rain, how would that make football players sissys.


how are you losing this won....that is a great question!!! The reason baseball players arent sissys for not playing in rain is because it is actaully dangerous for them to play in the rain. It is hard for batters to see the ball in pouring rain.

If you don't want rain or snow, move the season to spring and summer.

i got big burns- what is your next throwdown gonna be? It's too cold on a hockey rink, so the players shouldn't play? How bout curveballs are tough to hit, so pitchers should only throw fastballs with no movement directly over the middle of the plate? you are an idiot....
