The movie "Concussion"

After watching this movie, I can see why many parents would discourage their sons from playing football. All I wanted to do when I was younger was play football - organized, street, etc - it didn't matter. But football nowadays is different and more violent - even with all the protective rules. The athletes are bigger, faster, stronger and more aggressive. I dont have any boys (I have 2 daughters and thankfully they dont want to play football ) but they're both excellent soccer players. If I did have a boy, I would steer him towards baseball, soccer, tennis, wrestling or golf.

My solution for decreasing nfl concussions? Take away those damn helmets and make them play with either the old-fashioned leather ones or with none at all. It's safer to go back to just having broken noses, missing teeth and black eyes.
