I coach both Baseball and Football and see it a lot. Kids hardly interested and parents forcing them to play a sport. It’s a shame, thank god my kids love playing sports. Some of these kids are brutal to coach man.

any kid being forced to play at the high school level isn't going to be good enough to make it anyways so pretending that he is in danger is malarkey
im also not sold on cte as a whole just because they only test people for it who were at risk in the first place
so when studies come out like 108 out of 111 brains had CTE its like ok. how many brains out of 100 have it who never played football?
but yea the whole CTE discussion already has parents not letting their kids play these sports, which just further illustrates that those who do play know the risks

Sometimes you have cool different views on things
Sometimes your a close minded self important douchebag
This is one of the dumb douchebag moments
You must’ve either not played sports growing up or didn’t show any signs of talent so weren’t thrown into the ringer
