I do think you have a point, murron. However, I think the war on football is more complex. I personally feel it is “anti-alpha male”. Let me explain: football players are “masculine”. By that, I mean metro-sexuals don’t do well in the sport. These boys/men train to take or give a hard hit, run like the wind etc... IMHO, football is at the center of controversy right now. Hockey will be next. Any sport defined as truly “masculine” will be questioned in the future.
You can’t train to minimize brain injuries, as football is currently played.
Tom Brady? Brady Quinn? Seems like a lot of QBs are metrosexuals.
