    But with the zika virus soon to show up in the Southern US, in two decades you'll have football players with really tiny heads and tiny brains that can take a heck of a lot more impact! Nature has a way of working things out.

    Where was the irony in El Chup's diatribe?

    I used to buy that idea, but it turns out that pre-helmet football resulted in a rather large number of deaths on the field. 19 players died on the field in 1905 alone.

    It's legitimately more dangerous than other tackling sports.

    What in the fuck is wrong with you? You teach players to use neck strikes, don't you realize neck injuries are the highest in football than any other sport. And you want to disable them? So you actually are willing to risk neck fractures and possible paralysis in teens just to win a game? Good god... you are are buffoon and a disturbed individual.

    He's trolling. Hits in football are about changing momentum. It is most effective when you make the hit bellow the center of gravity. Dayton is either lying about the neck, or giving his players bad advice. On second thought, maybe he isn't trolling.

    Neck injuries are due to direct helmet impacts. Not by palm and elbow strikes to the neck.

    The irony is that your father clearly was a rather humble and unassuming man who would have been quite happy for you to follow his career path, whereas you, in contrast, have the arrogance to think you are superior to others and deserving of great acclaim - and therefore worthy of great success (without being prepared to learn what it takes to be successful).

    You can paralyze someone with an elbow or palm strike to the back of the neck. There's a reason such strikes are illegal in many martial or mixed arts fights. And if you are not trained how to do so, then paralysis or even death is more likely.

    Forbin, isn't scary that they let hillbillies become teachers in, Arkansas? Remember, it is pronounced our Kansas, they misspelled it.

    What do these have to do with anything?

    I am the son of a hairdresser and taxi driver. Yet I know two dozen lawyers (including judges) of very high repute who would go to bat for me in a second (one of which I was just working with earlier today). Can you say that? What does family reputation have to do with anything? Why do you think it entitles you do something or be well regarded?

    The subsequent rule changes seem to have served their purpose. How many football related deaths were there between 1905 and, say, 1950?

    This is true; one effect of the current focus on concussions is that attention is drawn away from the cumulative effect of the thousands of sub-concussive hits to the head the average football player takes in his lifetime. Someone who has never had a concussion can still suffer debilitating injuries.

    I never suffered a concussion though I did take a handful of painful impacts to the head. Mainly getting hit in the head by a running backs knee while their legs are churning like pistons.

    Oh, I'm well aware of what it is. But it is, at most, a lead in. It doesn't save you from being fired if you are incompetent does it?

    I wouldn't know.

    At any rate you asked the question. I gave you a series of factors that can help someone find and obtain jobs.

    Don't whine when you got your answers (one among many in fact).

    Good references? From whom?! The five other jobs you've gotten fired from? :blink:

    I have not been fired from five jobs. But you are not far from the truth to a degree. One of the concessions I'm fond of extracting from an employer in exchange for "leaving quietly" is a commitment to provide good references and assistance in finding another job.
