NFL "Hit Crisis"?
I enjoy watching MSNBC for several reasons. Probably the #1 reason is the hilarious spin on the news they offer. At home for a minutes this afternoon I turned on the "Dylan Ratigan Show". He did a segment on the "hit crisis" in football, the NFL and College Football in particular. The conversation with the "expert" was about the hits football players are sustaining and the long term effects they have on their brain.....
As if getting hit in football is something new and that old retired football players have long term health problems is a new development. They talked about "doing something" about this "crisis".
Hey, I know! Let's have Congress hold hearings, pass legislation and the Feds can take over the NFL! Maybe they could impose flag football or two-hand touch. And instead of Super Bowl Champions they could issue participation trophies for everyone! That way no one is considered a loser. You know that has to have long term psychological effects on those old players too. Maybe they can address the "Losing Crisis" in the NFL! More players than not have to battle the blow to the ego that losing affords...
Then maybe they can address the "bruised shin crisis" in soccer...
Liberals...(Sigh)
