Not For Ladies. Or is it?
By: Todd Perkins
For anyone paying attention to sports last week, the main topic was the recent fines for “rough play” on the football field. ARE YOU FREEKING KIDDING ME? The NFL has dished out fines this week to three players who were determined to have hit other players with their helmets. WHAT? Last time I checked, that was the point of the game.
Of course, as soon as the league announced their disciplinary actions, many players were outraged and have spoken out. Brian Urlacher of the Chicago Bears, who has been one of the leagues best linebackers over the past ten years, said “Its freaking’ football. There are going to be big hits.” Urlacher went on to add that they might think about changing the name to the NFFL, the National Flag Football League.
As long as I can remember, I have loved football. I grew up with season tickets to the Rams, when they were in Los Angeles. I have been a fan of the game and its hard hits from a very young age. The weekly highlight reel of hard hits are a must see for every sports fan in America. The players wear HELMETS for a reason. It’s dangerous. It’s crazy. It’s exciting. Now lets play some football, and stop crying like little girls.
