A7FL’s Hard-Hitting Point: Tackle Football Without Pads Could Cut The Number Of Concussions (Video)
February 3, 2017
So, American 7s Football League says take the helmet off to reduce rates of concussion and CTE in full-contact football?? Simple, elegant, old-school solution. Okay. But…Daaaayuummm! Dudes are getting LIT the F*CK up!
Saying though, didn’t we have them putting on more and more protection? As the years passed in this American pastime aka the ultimate collision sport we all love, we have paid more and more; and made the sport more and more expensive to play. Perhaps this is a way to dial all that back a notch.
Maybe we should just make ’em play flag or two hand touch?
Naaaah (haha). Hit the link for more on the safety perspective. Hit play above to see some HITTING! Hit the jump to see more highlights from A7FL.
Concussion (Trailer)
September 3, 2015
Uh oh NFL… The League must be on the ‘naughty’ list because, on Christmas Day, it gets a theatrical lump of coal staffing Will Smith. Check out this trailer for “Concussion” in which Will’s character demands that The League ‘tell the truth’ about what the repeated head trauma at the core of the ultimate collision sport (American football) does to its players. Also starring in the film: Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Alec Baldwin, Luke Wilson, Paul Reiser and Albert Brooks.
Will Smith stars in a dramatic thriller based on the incredible true David vs. Goliath story of Dr. Bennet Omalu, the brilliant forensic neuropathologist who made the first discovery of CTE, a football-related brain trauma, in a pro player.
