    For real though, football is quickly becoming a sport for the poors. Unless they're destined to be a QB or kicker, you're signing your kid up for early onset CTE with the end goal of surviving for a few years in the NFL and getting a paycheck that's only guaranteed week to week.

    Why do that when the Saudis and LA Dodgers are throwing around 9 figure guaranteed deals?

    @GreenRiverGatorz what is the data on CTE for kids that only played through HS or College? Honest and not loaded question. I'm not well versed in this subject.

    Seems like if HS Football alone cause CTE, there would be a lot more CTE out there. And nowadays, I would think the equipment and protocols are much better.
    Who knows how much is out there since diagnosis is post-mortem. This study shows a stark increase in risk with players in the NFL versus college and high school. There's a lot of high level math and statistics jargon in there, so someone smarter than me will have to conclude whether or not this study touches on prevalence of high school players vs gen pop.

    https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9989358/#:~:text=We therefore estimated that high,, respectively (Table 3).

    I have a really hard time imagining that boys under 12 are strong enough to give each other CTE.

    Something tells me that football gets more and more dangerous as you get to higher levels of play. Maybe there’s occasional CTE in high school football. But the NFL, where you’re playing against not just grown men, but the very strongest grown men in America-that’s really where CTE explodes.

    Is there seriously even one documented case of CTE resulting from the puny hits somebody got in Pop Warner at age 11 or younger?
    You clearly never saw me play junior tackle football.... Hit like a Mack truck

    Tug alert @DerekJohnson. Get this shit out of our face. It was clear from the first post. It went from a committee vote about youth football to California feminizing men. Are you fucking kidding me? Do we realize how stupid these people are or am I on an island of retard? Fuck me, man. I'm depressed enough as is during these days of grieving.

    I finally figured out which HH poaster was the faggy UW fan at the airport in skinny jeans and a cardigan with ribbed sleeves. Your hat was cool, FWIW
    This is the unexpected and disappointing one as I've seen you do some great things, and would expect better. You clearly have a higher ceiling than a lot of the MAGA faction, but I'm still getting my reads down and ceiling is nothing without development. I'm looking forward to watching your progress as we move forward. Can't base a game or season on any one play. It's more about the body of work.
    You've clearly spent way too much time in Seattle and/or the now woke Eastside.
    Simple fact. Case closed. End of discussion.

    Google "why does California ban everything" and you will see over a decade of articles about California banning everything from candy to cars to guns to youth football.

    I've bought many products with a warning on them that says:

    "California thinks there might be a 0.001% chance this product causes a 0.00001% increased risk of cancer if exposed to it frequently, so we want this warning label on here because we're a bunch of pussies"

    That's just the tip of the iceberg. Not everyone in California is a pussy, but they have more per capital than any other state.
    “More Per Capital than any other state”…..Well that explains this thread and a certain type of poster on here.

    Glad we don't recruit California anymore. You don't see this shit in Texas.

    If a politician put this bill forward in Texas their house would be burned down within a week. You do not fuck with football in Texas.
    A similar great day occurred in Lynnwood, WA in the late 90s, when the neighborhood was informed a Level 3 Sex Offender was moving back to the neighborhood, so the Ford Ranger/Nissan Pickup driving neighborhood dads burned his house down.

    Started playing PeeWee football when I was 9. Got my first concussion before fourth grade classes even started.
