I wouldn't let my son play football. Although us commies don't play it anyway.
BS, all I hear all my Euro buddies talk about is football. But you're right, probably none of those blokes actually played anything.I wouldn't let my son play football. Although us commies don't play it anyway.
What about soccer, or ice hockey?

Well it would have been a tragedy to deprive the world of his talent. Of every player on any team in any sport, that guy deserved a better surrounding cast when he was at IU.and says that at age 36 he has memory issues and has trouble walking up and down stairs.

Test for steroids...those players will suddenly become slower..If I had kids, I'd let them play football if they really wanted to, but I'd strongly try to push them into another sport. Football's peaking right now, anyway. It's about to go on a slow decline. Human beings are just too big, fast and strong to play that sport with any modicum of safety.
No chance my kids will play football. It's going to become like boxing where only kids from tough backgrounds without options play it.and says that at age 36 he has memory issues and has trouble walking up and down stairs.

Meaningful?I won't let my kids play football. My son is playing flag football though, and really seems to like it. Neither my wife nor I are big people, and my son doesn't look like he's going to be physically big enough to play meaningful football, so it's very easy for us to say no.

If you live in Hamilton County Indiana then you have to be pretty good to play High School Football. If I had grown up here I would have been playing Left Out instead of Left Guard.Meaningful?
There is always risk, but playing through HS is a lot different than playing through college and pro.
Football is a fun, primal game. At least flag football teaches them the proper techniques before they put the pads on.

My kid has really loved playing flag football. And I'm glad that he's enjoying it (and got pretty decent at it). Sports are such a big part of kids fitting in and getting to know other kids. So we're big into sports. He plays flag football, baseball, and soccer.We are in the same boat. My son wants to play football so we put him in flag football. We are not going to allow him to play normal football. He enjoys soccer, baseball, and basketball so he has plenty to do. And he's only in 2nd grade so that's enough for now. So far he's been ok with it.
we're in a unique situation here in Athens.My fifth grader is a good athlete, but hasn't played football. The coach of the 5th-6th grade boys' team is a father of one of his friends and has seen him run and catch. He's talked to us - and him - about playing receiver next year. We've always told him no, but with our dumb luck, they discontinued flag football the year we moved here (he loved it in Maryland).
To compound the issue, almost all the boys in his class are on the team and during the season they all wore their jerseys to school. He started wearing his Andy Dalton jersey to sort of fit in, but he's begging and pleading to be able to play next year - it doesn't help that the coach is sort of "recruiting" him to play.
The coach swears he's never had a young kid get seriously hurt and that we wouldn't have to worry about "hard" hits at this level. Problem is, one of his friends back in Maryland got a concussion playing in a pee-wee game. The kid was in forth grade at the time!
