re: Dodgeball to soon be banned in LA schools

Honest question. How do you get injured in dodgeball?

In my experience in the 5th grade, someone's head met my mouth and broke out a front tooth. Went and got a silver cap put on it and everything was back to normal. No big deal.

The non-athletic people normally just huddled in the back and waited for their early exit.

pretty sure when we did dodgeball or bombardment, it was optional

...and most of those kids still played b/c it was fun as frick

Damn I guess they will ban hot potato and duck duck goose alto

It's banned in Georgia but it's because there's too much down time when someone gets knocked out of the game. Or at least that's how they sold it.

"That's a personal pet peeve for me," Comeaux said. One, the whole point of the game is to eliminate children, who then wait on the sidelines, inactive. Two, "many children get hurt," he said.

I think we know who sucks at dodgeball

We played on the basketball court. We had rails for the stands and if you threw the ball and it hit the rails, you were out (for throwing too high).

I was never the biggest kid in junior high, but I could move and catch the ball. It was a very competitive game and everyone but the girls was into it

I remember smashing some poor Asian girl in the face with the ball and she just collapsed and fell backwards.
