"I really thought at first that we could play football safely with better rules and better equipment; I drank the Kool-Aid. I can’t go there anymore. I don’t believe it can be played safely anymore. I want these young men to leave C.U. with minds that have been strengthened, not damaged."--University of Colorado Regent Linda Shoemaker
Ah, but overparented middle-to-upper-class kids in America are increasingly not playing football. They're playing soccer, which is better exercise anyway.
