You can't determine how good of an athlete someone is by pictures. Some of the nerdiest looking guys are good at sports. Fat people. Skinny people etc etc

Hell yes I will (if that scary time of my life arrives). I played both traveling baseball and basketball, but playing football growing up (5th grade through high school) was easily the best and most enjoyable sport for me. The unusual freak accidents that happen as a result of playing any sport won't really play any factor into letting him participate.

Attention Dumbass: your brain controls and regulates every bodily function. Injuring it kills brain cells. Our body doesn't replace those.

Show me the data on people who played 3-4 years in HS. Even another 3-4 in college. This trauma they are studying, if I'm not mistaken, is for pro players who have played over 15 years total and took brutal shots at the pro level. Between the crime threads and this crap the OT is turning into a bridge game for a bunch of scared old ladies. Clutch your purses girls. Hold them tight.
Here's your data LINK
Given your handle, I assume you have a vested interest in your position. I understand that. I love football, too. I've played it, and I come from a family of coaches. So I have really mixed feelings about all this. But the evidence is starting to come in, and it's not looking good for the future of football.

that short guy with coke bottle glasses who played DB for Redskins agrees with this!
Anyone remember his damn name

Yes. This is the problem with America. It's becoming a country full of pussies!

The closest thing I'll ever have to a son plays QB in junior high. He excels, why limit him due to fear?
