Hmmm....never thought it would get to the ridiculous level it has, but since I am me, I will continue to comment.
I know the Seahawks are in the other 1/3, moving on...
When they start drinking tea during a timeout, I will call football civilized. Anyone who has ever played beyond pee wee league knows football is not "civilized." Dog fighting? Please....
I dont want people to get hurt, but contact is going to occur during the game. Trust me, you dont need to be going full speed or launch yourself to get your bell rung. Next on the list of people who can't hit with their helmet will be the linemen. The line of scrimmage is where the truly "dirty" things happen in football. You have no idea...
I am fairly certain this would be a non issue to you if it were another team.
Check the siggy....
Calm down boss, its cool. 8-)
