IMO Football, soccer, hockey, and anything else that causes head shock shouldn't be played in schools.
Fortunately, I wasn't very good in sports because I spent all my time practicing saxophone -- I was in the band.

Totally agree.
It is the fans, aka college grads, that give huge money to their winning alma mater.
Crazy.
I tell my boys their body must last to 100 years old...in good condition. They got to see grandpa who played college basketball, Syracuse, have multiple joint replacements and now in assisted living. Of course, he eats SAD. |
