I wouldn't. Not at any level. I rather not have him become a vegetable by the time he is 30. Plus, football players seem like unpleasant people.

I love the sig and the avatar. Major lulz.
I probably would encourage him to really explore how the pros end up if they don't have a great career.

How about if they made the Steve Wallace double helmet mandatory?

Nope, and much to my cousin's chagrin, he wants to play but I'm not having it. (him being a scrawny white kid with coordination issues might have something to do with it too....but not much)

In an ideal world, it would take extensive drug testing, a limited guaranteed contract, and non-biased truly neutral doctors were present on the sidelines before NFL would be "safe".

Given what we know, who would? It's a tough challenge because kids love football for the very reasons they shouldn't be playing it. Now people are starting to turn on soccer because of the headbutt to the ball but I feel like that's too rare to worry about now.
We've been sticking to baseball, wrestling and gymnastics for the girls. I wish there was a parkour facility here, that looks like a ton of fun.

Nope, if or when I ever have a kid, I will not let them play it.

I would never let my child (if I had one) play football; but I do love watching it
