Re: Truth Doesn't Have a Side

ABSOLUTELY, when you make a statement it is your belief, so what makes you believe we should omit ourselves to current areas you comment on?? You still acknowledge only what you want to. I'm glad in this post you didn't refer to child abuse, good for you, and yes you read shut your mouth correctly ...

There are many non-contact sports available to children that would provide them with a more suitable outlet for exercise.

Re: Truth Doesn't Have a Side

Nobody is taking your security blanket away from you, Linus. The game of football is not going away. Cult? Wow! I have commented on the other thread concerning "How to make the game safer." I spoke about Vector Mouthguards with real-time data for medical personnel on the sidelines. I didn'...

Re: Truth Doesn't Have a Side

You don't believe that would cause more problems, if a kid doesn't learn how to use proper technique until they get to high school? No Have you watched some (not all) of these travel football teams? Unbelievable... They play in weekend tournaments!!!!! I watched one last year on a Sunday at the Uni...

Re: Truth Doesn't Have a Side

I am much more conservative than 99% of the people in this world; however, when it comes to helping and protecting children, there is no argument about liberals vs conservatives because the welfare of children always comes first.

Re: Truth Doesn't Have a Side

But, back to the point of your crazy comments. Football is not child abuse. Comparing playing football to actual, real child abuse, to me, saying that out loud, is crazy. https://www.sacfirm.com/blog/law-medicine-may-tackle-youth-football/ "The truth will always prevail," Dr. Omalu has sa...

Re: Truth Doesn't Have a Side

Here is an interview with former NFL player, Kyle Turley, along with Dr. Omalu.

Interesting that Kyle Turley did not play football until he was a senior in high school!!!!!!!!!

Do you want your child, or any child, to have even the slightest chance of having CTE later on in life?

Re: Truth Doesn't Have a Side

Willingness of a child playing football vs. the abuse of a child. A child's willingness to play football is tantamount to a fart in the wind when considering the future health of the child's brain. Back in the early to mid-70s, there was little fear, if any, of having a brain injury. We watched vide...

Re: Truth Doesn't Have a Side

I haven't watched the movie concussion and I won't read this book, I KNOW the dangers of football and I sure as heck don't need someone trying to tell me it's comparable to child abuse. For SHAME on anyone who would compare the 2, some of us have seen TRUE abuse and we've read TRUE abuse stories an...

Phoenix trying to figure out why you even want on this site. Kids ride in the front seat of cars when they shouldn't be, we take chances everyday when we load our kids up in the car and go anywhere.

Re: Truth Doesn't Have a Side

There are already lawsuits pending against the NFL and NCAA. It is just a matter of time for others to occur for child abuse against children. Let me know when a local county DA files criminal child abuse charges against that first parent and I will hop back on here and say I was wrong, until then ...

Re: Truth Doesn't Have a Side

The numbers say different. Your child is much more likely to die in a swimming pool than on a football practice or game field. My point is there are a lot of dangerous activities we allow our kids to do-----would we be happier if they sat in front of an Xbox all day? When performed correctly, swimm...

Re: Truth Doesn't Have a Side

I think we have jumped the shark here. Football is not going to be stopped by lawsuits. Swimming pools injury and kill more kids than football. That industry seems to be doing just fine. Kids "Take Hits" riding bikes, motocross, skates, and skateboards. No one is talking about doing away ...
