    Harder position to play in detroit sports

    I had to go with Goaltender. Seems like every year no matter the result wing fans want the golies head.

    Yeah, or QBs have just sucked. If we ever did have adeent one the city would be all over his nuts.

    This is QB hell. Good poll Anthony, but it's a landslide.

    I didnt think it would be. Maybe if we had more wing fans here. Playing Goal for the wings is no easy thing to do. Lots of preasure.

    I went with QB. Football is the most popular spot in the US, played in every US city. Hockey isn't even half as popular...the pool of talent is much smaller...yet there are about 15 solid goalies in the NHL and about 15 solid, leaders at QB in the NFL. Seems like it's a lot harder to be Manning than to be Roberto Luongo.

    Yes, especially when they win the Asian Stanley Cup.

    You've gotta be kidding me.

    QB...and it's not even close.

    In anywhere between five and ten seconds, you have to:

    1. Read the defense.
    2. Adjust based on what you see, or call an audible.
    3. Determine based on potential coverage your best options.
    4. Call the snap.
    5. While dropping back, check off your recievers while...
    6. Keeping an eye on both the line and the corners (safety blitz), and...
    7. Checking for cleared target spots (no roving LB's or DB's)
    8. One final check for a blitzing player before motioning to pass.
    9. Pass
    10. Brace for impact.
    11. Get your stuffing knocked out.
    12. Get up, and brush it off like it doesn't hurt.

    13. Repeat 1-12 30 more times.
