This gif should not go unacknowledged. It is pure gold.

Hockey is the last bastion of badasses. Getting punched in the face:

Basketball - Massive bleeding, falling over, suspension from games, six digit fine
Football - Pointless except maybe for a broken knuckle
Baseball - Okay, they still fight a bit
Hockey - Skate away grinning
Soccer - Body explodes into meat particles, entire sport is retired (this is based on the relative damage caused by getting somewhat close to a soccer player before he flops on the ground vs. actually being punched in the face)

Rugby - The referee tuts at them and says, “Now now, lads! Enough of the handbags.”
