Rush predicted this years ago, in the Keep Our Own Kids Safe (KOOKS) safe soccer-concussion era.

Just said the same.
Now laws state they cannot head the ball under 10, some want helmets for crying out loud. The game has been around for way over a hundred years and now they want it to make it more of a pansy game.

Yep. Rush was right. Just another open door for the loiyahs and the continuation of the wussification of America.

My nephew, BTW, received 2 concussions playing lacross.

Yep, and I read recently many youth soccer leagues are banning heading.

I agree with Danny Kanell, because take note how the media ignores concussions in Soccer,Hockey,Boxing,MMA,Wrestling(the fake and real kind), Volleyball and even Cheer-leading(which BTW Cheer-leading(Cheer-leading is the number one cause of traumatic injuries for high school and college females.) and even the Military has issues with concussions.

My theory is that since football is a male dominated sport and male dominated in terms of viewership and it’s decidedly American(take not how every world cup they try to push soccer and complain about how Americans don’t embrace it like the rest of the world). Soccer is pretty high up there when it comes to concussions, but I think it’s ignored for the aforementioned reason(trying to make Soccer America’s sport and Soccer is more “gender equal”)
