Football is too dangerous to be played in high school and not worth the risk of its life threatening situations. Repeated hits to the head does not only mess with the person, but it more than one cases takes their life. Football is not worth losing a young person’s life and therefore is much too dangerous to be played in high school. Football kills people and causes irreparable damage. For example, Owen Thomas, a football player for the University of Pennsylvania, “took his own life,” due to “hits [that] added up and appear[ed] to have taken a terrible toll,” (Schwarz, Paragraph 3). Owen Thomas, a twenty-one year old kid, committed suicide. No one on this earth deserves to go through that kind of depression that leads to suicide, it is unimaginable.
