[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My oldest played football from age five through his senior year in high school. I worried, of course. His most serious injury was a broken hand. My youngest is not an athlete. He broke his leg in three places and tore his ACL - at band camp. Two surgeries and he still has problems with his knee. My daughter had a serious head injury as a rower. She was hospitalized. It was terrifying. Football is a dangerous sport. My son just happened to love it from kindergarten flag all the way through the big high school games. [/quote] I am so sorry about your daughter. But having rowed for over 25 years and coached the last 12 of those I have to say - a head injury in rowing is exceedingly rare. It's no comparison at all to football. [/quote]
