[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Never. Absolutely never. Football in schools won't even be a thing in 20 years. Don't do this to your child's brain and future. What a terrible thing to do. There are so many other sports to choose from that don't cause brain damage and future suicides and violent tendencies.[/quote] Ha. So we've been hearing for the last 20 years or so at least. FYIW, at my kids' DC private school, football is bigger than ever.[/quote] How many of those players are admitted (and on financial aid) to play football? It's getting nearly impossible for a lot of schools to field teams otherwise. Participation in tackle football has absolutely collapsed among children with educated and well off parents. Flag football, on the other hand, is taking off in a major way. [/quote]
