Interview with Justin Roper

Justin Roper
  •   I interviewed Justin Roper who was a Chicago Rush player and has been recently traded to Orland.
  •    He is a reliable source because he has experianced some of the situations first hand because he actually plays the sport. 
  •     I e-mailed them to get information on Thursday April 26, 2012.
     1.) What inspired you to play Arena Football over trying to get into the NFL?

     4.) Why did you choose Arena Football over NFL?


Basically no one chooses the afl over the nfl. Every players aims at playing in the nfl and they play arena when they are unable to play in the nfl.

That answers number 1 and 4.

 2.) What inspired you to start playing football? Did money play a factor in your decision?
2) I've been in football my whole life; my dad was a college coach so I've always played it and it's something I'm good at. Money is not why I play but it is obviously a huge bonus.



   3.) Do you think that Arena Football players are thought less of compared to NFL players? ( In any part of the game)

3) afl players alot of times have played in the nfl at some point so there's not really a huge talent deficiency. Afl players typically are guys who might not have ideal height or ideal speed for the nfl but still have alot of talent.
