Is football too dangerous? The sport of football has faced a lot of criticism do to the increase in concussions, and the fact that some former players have encountered many diseases or memory loss, because of these concussions,but some believe that the sport is not too dangerous and that there are sports worse than football when it comes to concussion ratings. Many believe that football should be expelled from society, because of the many dangers of the sport, others believe that there…

Have you ever thought about an NFL that never applied discipline? Tom Brady was allegedly deflating footballs in the 2014-2015 AFC Championship against the Indianapolis Colts, but was never punished. Although it is not fully proven, there is plenty of evidence that Tom Brady has violated the integrity of the game multiple times, therefore, Tom Brady should be harshly punished. The NFL and people everywhere have been way too easy on Tom Brady. One good example is how the federal court nullified…

Certain players in the national football league (NFL) are more susceptible to being recipients of concussions more so than other players. One study was compiled of a research analysis that was broken up into two parts over a twelve-year span. Data from the first six years of the analysis was compared to the final six years of the analysis. The study compared all concussed NFL players by the player’s position, number of plays player was involved in, and what kind of play was being ran. According…

debate over football and the risk factors it has on its players. This contradiction has recently increased after the movie “Concussion” was released. The debates over this sport include: should children be able to play football despite the risks it includes? Should NFL players have to change their equipment and their ways of playing the game? Would you allow your child to play this sport? All are very good questions to debate over but should it really be taken to that extreme? Football players…

I want to learn more about football helmets and its history. So I took my time and looked things up. I play football and when I get hit I feel safe knowing that this helmets are meant for this sport. Will keep playing this sport until I’m done with high school. Doing some research I saw that they played with just some leather helmets and they were big guys. I was thinking to myself and saying they can get paralyzed by a big hits right to the head. Before i did this research i already knew some…

The more teams a league allows into the playoffs the less likely the “best team” actually wins the championship. Now, as we have seen in the past, the “best team” doesn’t always win the Super Bowl, but for the most part, outside of a few outliers the teams that dominate during the season usually end up in the Super…

Peyton Manning. Peyton is considered one of the great quarterbacks, who dominated an era of NFL football as he won a Super bowl and several MVP trophies. I had the pleasure this summer to be invited to the Argus Leader South Dakota Sports Awards Banquet, where Mr. Manning was the guest speaker. Through the course of two hours my idea of life and sports in general changed instantly. Born into a football family, Peyton's father and brother are both Quarterback's. Having his father Archie Manning…

Star, Stripes, and Stand “Oh, say can you see by the dawn’s early bright. What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming?”(Francis Scott Key) These lyrics are sung at almost every sporting event across the nation. Kids watch their favorite athletes respect the flag and sing along; however, some do not and then children wonder, “ why do they sit down?” Recently, many professional athletes have either been taking a knee, sitting down, or even raising fists because they believe that…

The article I chose for my connection is an article about an NFL player saying goodbye to the league because of boycott. Colin Kaepernick was signed to a new team, because he quietly refused to stand for the national anthem during each game, an act meant to protest police brutality but widely condemned as unpatriotic. Kaepernick says he is sticking to his cause. Other players are starting to boycott to his cause. One player from the Seahawks Michael Bennett has made it clear that he supports the…
