    Shouldn't it be the kid's decision anyways?

    After sending this country into depression, we won't have football to watch when we're sitting in around doing nothing. I give quality nfl AND college football 2 years.

    Are you happy More _ wiener , collegedoog? Fucktard o's like you happily ushered his black - ass back into office, then you come here to spread his message about violence in sports. Crack the gate, get out and lock it behind you.

    If I had a son he'd look like Wes Welker

    First to arrive at the gym, last to leave. A real lunch-pail kind of guy.

    Stupid cheap shot, Derek. One of my good friends played on the defensive line at West Virginia University, and is a die hard republican. We argue over politics frequently. His son is now 3 years old and my friend has vowed that his son will NOT play football.

    The head injuries have impacted a lot of peoples' thinking. I'm not saying that Obama or my friend are right, but you're not-so-subtle jab is poorly thought out.

    Quoting Obama and linking an article is a poorly thought out jab.


    Wow. Defensive much?

    All I did was a post a link of a news story. You're projecting and overreacting as usual.
    Yah, right. Of the tens-of-thousands of news stories you could link on countless topics from countless news sources, you posted this one just for the heck of it. You weren't trying to make a point. All you "did was post a link to a news story."

    Do you think people are stupid enough to believe that?

    "Would not let my son play PRO football" ? So after playing the years and doing the work to get drafted, Obamas son would have to tell his new NFL team that his days won't let him play?

    Btw, if Obama had a son, I doubt he would even sniff collegedoogs PONY baseball league, let alone the NFL.

    The leader of our nation is publicly quoted as saying he wouldn't let his adult son play football at a time when the NFL is in playoffs mode, and when I post the link to this, you see it as an agenda-driven cheap shot targeting the supposedly stupid people on our message board.

    Stop and think about what you're saying.

    I don't like Obama and don't support most of what he stands for. I have never made any bones about it. Water is wet.

    If Obama was a real President, meaning he would without a doubt be the No.1 political leader in the land, he would threaten to shut down the NFL until they came up with a plan to for certain eliminate their player head injury problem. Teddy Roosevelt threatened early in the 20th Century to entirely outlaw full contact football in all of America because so many college and high school players were suffering crippling injuries and too often death on the gridiron. The result of tough guy TR's threat over a hundred years ago was some rule changes and the advent of helmets and pads. Now comes the NFL with the long-term affects of their BIG HIT highlights of Sunday TV.

    Get a grip, football fans. Parents all over our country are refusing to allow their young sons to play our favorite game and it seems apparent that such a movement is a direct result of what has happened and is happening in the NFL. The excitement and notoriety of delivering the ugliest BIG HIT trickles down from pro to college and high school, even to peewees. I don't personally care about what affect the de-popularization of football might have on the professional game down the road because I'm not likely to live long enough to see it. But damn, it would be a shame if kids aged 14-22 were someday deprived of the fun of playing The Game on Friday nights and Saturdays.

    Call it pussification if you want, but unlike the dangers of coal mining, there are no canaries in football. The dirty-endangerment hot dog shit, such as that which happened to Keith Price when he was intentionally helmet blasted in the face mask at the Hunger Bowl and didn't even result in a penalty, has to stop. BYU's No.90 on defense is a vicious thug who shouldn't be allowed on the field anytime, anywhere,..... and BYU coaches have no balls for exposing their opponents to such thuggery. KP will get all of that he can handle in the NFL providing he stays healthy enough by avoiding brain damage.
