Watching NBC Nightly News. Football as we know it.....
Jan 31, 2014, 6:46 PM
|
|
is coming to an end. Liberal media is jumping on the anti football bandwagon. Attacking it at the most basic level...youth football. Saying some high schools are already considering not sanctioning football due to fear of lawsuits. In 10-15 years, football will be nothing more than 7 on 7 with no pads or flag football

I watched that segment that was a piece of liberal crap. They will make every effort to put as much negative light on the game as possible...we may be watching games of horseshoe in a few years on Sat/Sun afternoons.

That this all on the NFL. They refused to take care of their retired players in pursuit of the all mighty dollar and now the players that built the game have a good chance to tear it down....all for basic health insurance.

no, I am pretty sure it is the liberal's fault. If not for all their regulations, we could go back to playing the manly conservative way with leather helmets and no facemasks.

Because the NFLPA has always caved into the owners….
Feb 1, 2014, 2:55 PM

It's surprising the polar opposites that MLB's player union and the NFLPA are compared to each other. MLB's player union won't give on anything. Yet the union in a violent sport, which destroys it's players body, won't even stand up for their own players.

Now the NFL itself should be held accountable fora lot of the ways they handled things but to me the NFLPA has always seemed very greedy to me. They acted ignorant to the fact that there were problems and long term effects and even have blocked money to help ex-players get proper medical care. Every time the cba came back up they made sure to cut out the ex players to keep a bigger pot to themselves. Finally the explayers sued the union. They reap what they sew.

Agree totally. All this liberal,politically correct bs and the dumb--- in the White House are ruining this once great country. If things don't change with the 2014 elections,football isn't the only thing going to the dogs.

Football isn't going nowhere........
Jan 31, 2014, 8:17 PM

......too much money being made by the fat cats up in the suites. High schools very well may drop football but that won't stop it, we will just see what we see in basketball as far as AAU programs popping up everywhere. We already see these AAU type 7 on 7 tournaments where these kids travel the country. So it probably wouldn't be a problem getting kids on board for a traveling full contact 11 on 11 programs. As far as Liberals ruining the country, I would have to agree but on the other hand the Elephants and Donkeys haven't fared much better....

I have stated on here before that I believe in 15 years or so we will not recognize the college game that we know today. Truly believe it will also lose it's appeal.

Do it all over again. Most of them played hurt voluntarily and we're not forced to do so. Most of these players who are in the lawsuit squandered away their money or they mad their paydays were not like today.

There is so many things amusing about this thread.
One, I didn't know long-term health of human beings was a liberal ideal. Two, some of you just fulfill the stodgy stereotype ofconservatives. Any change is a bad thing, right? Even if it means promoting the safety of our citizens.

would "do it again". That's not the point. I am also sure 9 out of 10 would have liked to play a game that was safer for them and their teammates. Some type of adequate medical coverage after retirement would be nice too.
