    Just get rid of the game if they're gonna keep adding restructions. You're a fool if you think it's gonna stop here.

    Yeah. Sure.
    We should all stay indoors all day and think up more things to ban.
    These are some of the only kids in the whole state that are outdoors !

      Or boomers are too dumb. The science is pretty clear about the risks, and those focusing on only concussion rates compared to other sports aren't considering the damage that is done on every hit, even if it doesn't result in a concussion.

    Banning tackle football for kids is a horrible idea. It’s a decision to be made by parents whether they allow their kids to play or not. Teach kids how to properly tackle and it’s fine. If they want to accept the risk that’s their decision. Just ban everything that might have any risk or throw more warning labels on everything, yeah that’ll fix it. Helicopter parenting starting becoming a thing in the 2000’s and look where that’s gotten us.

    Football is important to the youth in every stage of life. Teaches them life lessons. How to be a part of a team. These coaches become gather figures. Some kids lives depend on it.

    Youth football is quite popular in America. More so than any developed nation. America also has far more violent crimes and shootings than any other developed nation. One has to wonder if brain injuries as youths have led America to become what it now is....

    Football is a violent game. It can cause serious injuries, some of which can result in serious mental illness. However, football has caused a far greater number of cases of mental illness among spectators than players.

However, that doesn't change the fact that it's still a violent game with many fans that have been mentally retarded by the promotion of the game without ever playing. I hope you get to play as long as you like and hope it teaches you what it taught me. Good Luck.

      Ban tackle football for kids but make it legal for kids to get sex changes and be prescribed hormones without their parents” knowledge. And also make it child abuse if a parent doesn’t “affirm” their kid’s new gender. Make it make sense.

    We played touch football in California when we were kids...organized and not...nothing wrong with that... research shows that just the season long pounding on each other in games and practices without concussions still has a negative impact on cognitive function
    Repetitive minor brain injuries are not a good thing for children or adults with potentially serious lifelong negative impact...... a little common sense and protection of young people is in order here
