Message: [QUOTE="Crusty, post: 1407272, member: 2265"] My mother wouldn't let me play football (in the 60's!!), but let me play varsity basketball where I broke my nose three times. I got more injuries playing baseball - broken fingers, stitches, sprains and collisions at home (Mrs Crusty says that explains a lot). Football however, is the only of these sports where violent contact is intended on every play. If I had a kid today, knowing what we know now, I would push soccer (even though I can't get into the game myself). [/QUOTE]
