This conversion kind of amazes me.
We have learned over decades that certain things are very dangerous long term.
So when we try to make our athletes more healthy and safe then its PC liberal lawyers and doctors destroying america.
That is pretty ****ing dumb.
NFL is making the sport safer by changing a few rules about direct head hits and they are using better equipment.
Can you seriously say that watching football got boring now because of that? If yes, are you still watching?
Boxing has been boring for while.
Its a one dimensional fight sport that got killed by MMA.
Obviously no PC liberal lawyers or doctors made MMA exiting and boxing boring.
I pretty much quit watching boxing when tyson retried. has not been many exiting fighters.
When Tank, Shamrock ,etc came on TV with MMA I found it so much more exiting then boxing.
Boxing is dying because we got alternatives. Kind of what happened to the horse and buggy business.
If you know the long term danger from being hit in the head, do you think its right to just ignore it?
Do you really think you are tough if you do?
So the last 5 superbowls, all really sucked compared 5 Superbowls in the 60ts?

BD great example 9er's vs saints and drew ''the PHag'' brees. Bowman friggin leveled that punk, cleanly, got penalized and cost them a playoff bye.The NFL is trying to make the sport safer by eliminating direct head to head contact or hitting by leading with your head, and I applaud them for that. However, the problem that many fans including myself have with the new rules is, many of the penalties for the so called head hits are anything but an illegal hit... the referees have been instructed to penalize any contact that is close to being illegal, which IMO does dull the sport of football.

All these good intentions with this helmet to helmet safety smoke screen is bs , they're trying to ''civilize'' football to sell it to the pansies in Europe. Let those chomos play soccer, it's great, yea! This new rule is going to get more people hurt\paralyzed. You ''lead'' with the head for a reason, natural instinct to protect their neck. Going in head up is just plain crazy and opens them up for really gettin hurt. Now they're all second guessin themselves. There's a reason The NFL grew to what it is, ''THE BIG HIT''!!
You may be right, but it was bs. That was textbook hit and cost them the game. I thinbk it's like gubamint , the more the league gets involved the more they screw it upWasn't that the Ahmad Brooks hit on Brees? I remember seeing that... absolutely terrible for the refs to throw a flag on that play.
