N.F.L. May Suspend Players for Violent Hits
If the NFL fines players for violent hits this will be the end of the uniqueness the game presents. I feel that there is calculated risk in everything that we do on a day to day basis and now asking players not to hit so hard is ridiculous. SMDH. I have played this game all my life and it is almost impossible not to hit with your helmet when engaging a defender. All that's left to do is to continue to develop new equipment that will aid players to withstand the trauma that your body is under during a game. What do you think? http://www.nytimes.com/2010/10/19/sports/football/19hits.html?src=twrhp&scp=1&sq=nfl%20%20hits&st=cse

"That's baloney," says someone in my house who used to coach (high school) football. "They just like the drama of the collision."
ReplyDeleteHe has long been in favor of a rule saying no hitting above the shoulder. I agree.
