[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Football has become the modern day gladiator sport. Good for underprivileged who pursue his route if willing to take the risk of severe and non reversible head injury. I would not let my kid play this sport because for one thing, we don’t need the scholarship money. [/quote] It is only a path for the underprivileged because we had made it so, and the path to success is easy to navigate --play well in high school, play well in college, get drafted. Ditto with basketball. Baseball or soccer could be the same if the route to professional had transparency, or if we attended and supported other sports the way we support football and basketball. You can't decry football on one hand then hold a Super Bowl party for all your friends. [/quote]
