They move the ball with their feet far faster and farther than anyone with their hands.

Baseball is a friendly pastoral game whereas football is a militaristic war.

Seriously, the team is even stronger now. They got rid of some malcontents and got some real athletes in return. New England, with their new power running game is their only opposition.
