And that right there is the reason my son will not be playing football until he's in high school, and only then if I feel he fully appreciates the consequences of head trauma. And he's literally too big to fit on the charts in size right now. That was fricking ridiculous.

I applaud your point of view.

Does your son have a favorite college team?

Its not the sport, its the coaches setting up that idiotic drill.

I was hit like that often from 7(Peewee Perkins Road Eagles) - 18(walk-on at LSU).

25 yrs later at 43 yrs old I sleep well and no issues focusing on my desk-jocky analyst job.

I'm not special. I'm the norm. There are a shite ton more people like me than the trauma cases being exploited for an agenda.

Lighten up, Francis. That kid is just fine.

I read a study a few years back that demonstrated pretty convincingly that pee wee football is among the safest sports for little kids simply because of the pads they wear.

The most dangerous? Soccer.

This was years ago, and the pads have advanced light years since then.
