Are they going grow up to be rocket scientists? Are these the kids that are going to find a cure for cancer? I seriously doubt it. What’s wrong with a little brain damage for a bunch of (let’s face it) not so smart kids to begin with? I say let ‘em play!Seanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03375152841103190639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5029128.post-47510339679589600082009-02-23T23:20:00.000-08:002009-02-23T23:20:00.000-08:00My mother would not let me play football in Jr. Hi...My mother would not let me play football in Jr. High and had she allowed it, I might have made friends and not become a high school drop out. Though based on a lot of the guys from our team, I might have become an asshole too.<BR/><BR/>I don't think football in high school should be banned, but they could make the rules similar to the Pro-Bowl, where there are more rules in place to avoid injury.Larry Davenporthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08176896901894522192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5029128.post-11345471675699423422009-02-04T23:32:00.000-08:002009-02-04T23:32:00.000-08:00My parents always DIScouraged sports for this reas...My parents always DIScouraged sports for this reason.

Thanks for the rec, and the basic primer in urban planning last year on Slog. I'm taking a housing class this term, and everyone else is an urban design student, so it was nice to know enough not to embarrass myself in the first class.ruchihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17043512641324366469noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5029128.post-55365513289143335672009-01-29T16:39:00.000-08:002009-01-29T16:39:00.000-08:00Oh wow, you posted something new.Oh wow, you posted something new.Mr. Poehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12238281947147865662noreply@blogger.com
