I was an OL and a pretty damned good one :) Also played DT . Loved the violence of those positions.
When you watch a game most people watch the ball.
But you have to experience playing to experience the violence of the game.
Couldn't agree more. In recent years i've found myself keeping my eyes on the trenches. Like you said, its just so violent. My old supervisor was a D-1 OL. He's 6'9'' easily 330, played for Pitt. He would start in with the war stories and i'd sit there amazed lol
