Yes, I think I think all kids who pitch have to worry about their arms. Pitching is not a natural motion and can be damaging.
Running is a natural motion. Aguement and comparing the 2 is DUMB.

Do me a favor, show me where LSU backs have longer careers in the NFL.
I really just give up on this topic. It truly is stupid. Brossette will not choose a college in any way thinking about less wear on his body. Players play and want to play every single down of every game, period. I make any wager you need and give you a year to find a college RB who liked one school better because they thought there would be less wear on them by splitting carries and therefore better for their NFL career.
Good luck

Reading comprehension is not your strong suit. Less carriers equals less chance of injury equals higher likelihood of longer career. No on is saying that its always true....simply saying the percentages are more favorable.

You posting vitriolic, ill-conceived comments that lack substance or common sense . . . now THAT is natural. You've got a TON of God-given talent.

Of course elite HS athletes are fierce competitors. Of course elite HS athletes want to play as much as possible. HOWEVER, elite HS athletes and their parents give a LOT of thought to playing on the next level. They think about all kind of things. I don't know why you think they are so thoughtless or single-minded.

However, Brossette seems like an intelligent kid. Sure, he's an elite athlete and a fierce competitor, and he wants to play. However, I'm sure he'll consider many factors in his decision about where he will place college ball. And one fact you seem to ignore is that he WILL play wherever he goes. The only way Nick Brossette does not see plenty of playing time is if he gets injured. [Oh, did you see what I did there.]
The thing is, he doesn't have to be the #1 back for four years at LSU to get taken by an NFL team. He doesn't even have to be the #1 back for one year at LSU. If you're an LSU RB and you're good, you'll make it into the NFL. What you do from there is up to you.
