As much as i hate the drama in the sport, you gotta admit you have to be a great athlete to play the game. Anyone who doesn't think so, try sprinting around a giant field for an hour and a half. These guys are amazing athletic machines (and yes, sadly, often with a primmadonna complex).
Outside of hockey, boxing, iron-man, most sports don't even come close. It's definitely not one where being a fat-ass is a non-issue (read baseball).
And hey, it's dirt cheap to play. All you need is a roundish object.
