Kolek planning to go pro
Yea, looking at WI football, some of the most successful programs in the bigger divisions over the last 20 odd years have been Homestead, Arrowhead, the Brookfields, Waunakee, and Franklin. All affluent suburbs, especially the first 4. Not exactly reviled there.
Broooo.None of that has to do with why there are less kids playing football.
Helicopter parents not wanting their kids to get hurt because of all of the info about CTE and the like? It’s the primary reason fewer kids are playing, especially when there are options like soccer and lacrosse.
Before everyone runs to soccer, please understand that it is not injury free either.My son played football through his freshman year in high school. Worst injury was a modestly sprained ankle. He was a running back and defensive back who as he got older took a lot of hits. By the time he finished his freshman year, he was small and he saw the creatures on the other side of the line of scrimmage and said, "no!"My daughter played soccer through grade school, high school, college and afterward. She was and is an injury waiting to happen. Two concussions, a badly injured ankle requiring surgery, injured knees, sprained wrists and assorted back sprains and I'm convinced soccer may be more dangerous than football. My daughter throws her heart and soul into her play and is fearless.
TAMUI do know, Newsie is right on you knowing ball.
Maybe people are just wising up to the reality that football is 15 minutes of action wrapped into 4 hours of broadcast.
75 of the 100 most watched programs last year were NFL games, including 28 of the top 30.Seven others were college football games.Seems like there are still a few suckers out there.
Yeah. And how many minutes of actual activity is there in baseball or golf?
Is walking part of golf? If so, frequently 100% for me. Bit if I only make 75 swings/putts in 150 minutes....From the time I get over the ball to start my process until the time it stops moving is probably 12 minutes per round.
I've played behind you.
I admire the guy plumb-bobbing his third putt for an eight. Don't give up, buddy. And when you miss, and you will, mark yourself down for a 6.
I like to take 12-15 practice swings and line myself up correctly at least three times before swinging
Yeah, but then just say that. Because we all agree on that.The bit you posted was not related.
