Devastating hits

I only have a quick second, but I wanted to post this topic about the NFL suspending players involved in "devastating hits". This is a very hot topic in our house since my hubby played in the NFL. I think it's pretty ridiculous that the NFL is going to let two plays from one Sunday afternoon affect the entire organization. Did you see how fast those plays happened? I'm amazed players are able to react and correct themselves from making "head shots" as often as they do. With the speed and intensity of the game as fast as it is, accidents and mistakes do happen. How do you take aggression out of football? That's the whole point. I liked how one ESPN commentator called players modern gladiators. That's what they do. That's what we pay them to do by purchasing tickets. If someone is afraid of getting hurt on the football field, then they need to pick another profession. That's what you sign up for when you play football. More later...off to preschool.
