Mckenna is right, American football players do *spear*(lead with their heads 
when tackling)their opponents, How, it is rare because it's against the rules 
and heavily penalized. Anyone being tackled will have referees watching it, so 
it's hard to get away with. The idea is to tackle with the shoulders, not hit 
with the top of the head.

American footballers tackle with their heads, butting each other in a way 
seldom seen in rugby. "They butt the opposition and their head is the tip of 
the missile, with an enormous body of weight behind them," says McKenna. 
Meanwhile, the helmets and padding the US sportsmen wear can actually make the 
situation worse, he thinks, encouraging them to use more force.In rugby it is 
spinal injuries from scrums that are the most dangerous (110 rugby players in 
Britain have been paralysed by playing the game). Allyson Pollock, a professor 
of public health, says that she is very worried about amateur rugby players, 
and especially children. Coaches, she says, are not properly trained to look 
out for the signs of concussion or taught how to deal with it – although it can 
have serious problems for children's learning and cognitive functions. She 
would like to see large-scale studies of the effects of such injuries, and says 
the sport establishment needs to think carefully about tackles. In 2010, she 
called for scrums to be banned after a study found that 190 rugby matches at 
Scottish schools resulted in 37 injuries. "Most children are not going to go 
professional, so why are their bodies being mauled and mashed and battered?"

You are wrong about this. I get up from the couch not only to retrieve the 
remote but also to go to the refrigerator, which is in another room and 
therefore counts as serious exercise. 

Injuries in football may well be underestimated because players are encouraged 
to keep on playing, even after sustaining concussions (although there has been 
some improvement over the last few years in how these injuries are treated, 
according to what I read). Football is more injurious to the body than in your 
example, of bad backs and elbows among golfers. As far as boxing is concerned, 
the risk of head injury is obvious, but I think the NFL has a bad record in 
failing to acknowledge the high incidence of brain damage in both current and 
former football players.

 Ice hockey is also infamous for this. How about the repetitive injuries that 
go along with just about any other professionally-played sport? Let's face it, 
when you undertake any activity to the level at which professional athletes do, 
you are wrecking your body - be it gymnasts or tennis players. Even golfers 
(which I don't consider a sport) have bad backs and elbows. Football is no more 
or less injurious to the body. Try boxing if you think football is bad for head 
injury. But I do believe equestrian sports are some of the most dangerous and 
concussions are rampant in that sport as well. Luckily, most here haven't left 
their couches, or if so, than only to retrieve the remote or their copy of The 
Gita.
 
Here's a list that has some surprises on it! How do you get a concussion in 
golf? I guess when your partner forgets to yell, "Fore".

Hold on. There.  I just patted myself on the back.  Yes! I've done all three!  
Competitively even. 

 Funny story.  I remember in the ninth grade, I was our running back, and I 
remember of the first play of the first game of the season. It was a hand off 
to me, and I broke for about 15 yards.  Damn, that was a good feeling. But, 
basically, I was generally only slightly above average in football, never 
really good enough to stand out much.
 

 But wind sprints.  You wanna talk about wind sprints.  Those wind sprints we 
had to do the in ninth grade were criminal!

 You are wrong about this. I get up from the couch not only to retrieve the

 I knew this about you, Feste.  You should really get a fitbit watch if you 
don't already have one.

Injuries in football may well be underestimated because players are encouraged 
to keep on playing, even after sustaining concussions (although there has been 
some improvement over the last few years in how these injuries are treated, 
according to what I read). Football is more injurious to the body than in your 
example, of bad backs and elbows among golfers. As far as boxing is concerned, 
the risk of head injury is obvious, but I think the NFL has a bad record in 
failing to acknowledge the high incidence of brain damage in both current and 
former football players. 
 

 Actually, part of the scandal of football would be if the public knew how much 
medication is given to numb the pain so the players can continue to play.

 Not to worry, just keep thinking you can do it. I'm biking from Saigon to

chores and when the body says "enough" you push it just a little bit further.

and we competed all over Europe when I attended school in London. I was fast 
(only beaten once), but it was all adrenaline. I was also on a few other 
varsity teams and even tried my hand at hurdling while still in London but that 
takes some guts. I just liked pure speed without the obstacles, thank you very 
much. And at the ripe old age of 59 I'm still stupid enough to climb on the 
back of a horse every day. I figure, if you don't take a few life-threatening 
chances at least a few times a day you might as well be dead.

Yep, Outstanding in my fields  I trimmed horse feet today,

 Don't got no time for ball games.
 

 Wind chill values as low as -5. Blustery, with a northwest wind around 20 mph, 
with gusts as high as 30 mph.

2016-02-08 Thread emily.ma...@yahoo.com [FairfieldLife]
Would love to see two NFL teams square off in a game of "touch" football! LOL.  
Saw part of a rugby game recently and wondered why they weren't wearing 
helmets.  Here's the scoop on that, from an article in the Guardian: 

 "While American football may be a niche interest in the UK, rugby is often 
seen as similarly dangerous – so should David Cameron be as worried as 
President Obama? Not according to Jim McKenna, a professor of physical activity 
and health at Leeds Metropolitan University 
http://www.leedsmet.ac.uk/carnegie/22CE029EB9B946D38188B9DA0C1CA52E.htm (and a 
rugby coach). He points out that American footballers tackle with their heads, 
butting each other in a way seldom seen in rugby. "They butt the opposition and 
their head is the tip of the missile, with an enormous body of weight behind 
them," says McKenna. Meanwhile, the helmets and padding the US sportsmen wear 
can actually make the situation worse, he thinks, encouraging them to use more 
force.
 In rugby it is spinal injuries from scrums that are the most dangerous (110 
rugby players in Britain have been paralysed by playing the game 
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/health/children_shealth/8752872/Tackling-rugby-safety-issues-head-on.html).
 Allyson Pollock, a professor of public health, says that she is very worried 
about amateur rugby players, and especially children. Coaches, she says, are 
not properly trained to look out for the signs of concussion or taught how to 
deal with it – although it can have serious problems for children's learning 
and cognitive functions. She would like to see large-scale studies of the 
effects of such injuries, and says the sport establishment needs to think 
carefully about tackles. In 2010, she called for scrums to be banned after a 
study found that 190 rugby matches at Scottish schools resulted in 37 injuries. 
"Most children are not going to go professional, so why are their bodies being 
mauled and mashed and battered?"

  Football asks way more from the human body than it can give. It becomes

 No doubt!

Injuries in football may well be underestimated because players are encouraged 
to keep on playing, even after sustaining concussions (although there has been 
some improvement over the last few years in how these injuries are treated, 
according to what I read). Football is more injurious to the body than in your 
example, of bad backs and elbows among golfers. As far as boxing is concerned, 
the risk of head injury is obvious, but I think the NFL has a bad record in 
failing to acknowledge the high incidence of brain damage in both current and 
former football players. 
 

 For sure, football is brutal in so many ways. These guys are sacrificed out 
there. The knees, the brains, the whole thing. Feed them terrible diets, pump 
them full of steroids and unleash them out there to have their bodies pummeled. 
I have yet to see the movie "Concussion". I think the truth of it is pretty 
much all in there.

There is a new protocol for head injuries. Players suspected of a concussion 
are immediately pulled from the game and put under the care of an outside 
neurologist. Only the neurologist can release them to return to practice after 
a series of tests.

    You are wrong about this. I get up from the couch not only to retrieve the 
remote but also to go to the refrigerator, which is in another room and 
therefore counts as serious exercise. 

Injuries in football may well be underestimated because players are encouraged 
to keep on playing, even after sustaining concussions (although there has been 
some improvement over the last few years in how these injuries are treated, 
according to what I read). Football is more injurious to the body than in your 
example, of bad backs and elbows among golfers. As far as boxing is concerned, 
the risk of head injury is obvious, but I think the NFL has a bad record in 
failing to acknowledge the high incidence of brain damage in both current and 
former football players.

I agree with Doug on this. Football gives you brain damage. What a horrible 
thing to inflict on these young men just to entertain the populace and allow 
some people to make lots of money. 
Ice hockey is also infamous for this. How about the repetitive injuries that go 
along with just about any other professionally-played sport? Let's face it, 
when you undertake any activity to the level at which professional athletes do, 
you are wrecking your body - be it gymnasts or tennis players. Even golfers 
(which I don't consider a sport) have bad backs and elbows. Football is no more 
or less injurious to the body. Try boxing if you think football is bad for head 
injury. But I do believe equestrian sports are some of the most dangerous and 
concussions are rampant in that sport as well. Luckily, most here haven't left 
their couches, or if so, than only to retrieve the remote or their copy of The 
Gita.

Here's a list that has some surprises on it! How do you get a concussion in 
golf? I guess when your partner forgets to yell, "Fore".

It is a kind of support of nature that as life would have had it that I did not 
take up the competitive sports of exhibition yogic flying. Further research may 
show that yogic flying might well be added to a growing list of dangerous sport 
activity.
