First words out of his mouth was "You can't lead with your helmet..." He's a good player, and clean...as in he'll clean your clock if you're holding onto the ball.

Sheeet. Back in the stone ages when I played, that hit woulda got a game ball! I can hear coach now, filling the shocked silence...."WAY TO GO, GOOD HIT, WAY TO PLAY!"

My coach was a maniac

He's been taught well.

Went to a coaches clinic some years ago where they showed video of what can happen if you do.

Really chilling stuff.
but this reminds me.

This past week some kid got laid out on the opening kickoff od some college game and didnt move for a long long time.
and by not move. I mean not even a twitch of a foot.
So long in fact the station switched to another game.

Dont know who was playing or who it was.

Anyone know what happened and how the kid made out?

Dred,
That is always in the back of a parents mind...and the reason I didn't push the youngest son this fall to finish the season after he insisted on signing up with his older brother. He went 1 week into practice and came to me and said football wasn't his sport (in the previous days practice he got a helmet right in the ear hole...) I told him no problem, and we turned in his gear. I wouldn't want it on my conscience if he got badly injured and I will never force to play the game. THe youngest returned to his select soccer team, which he loves. That's fine with me. The older one is the football nut, lives for the game. He does a scratch/gouge inventory on his helmet after practices and games to see if he's got any new ones (a sign that he really lit someone up) and he's gone to bed and fell asleep with his helmet on more than once, anxious .
