It is the repeated shaking of the head through contact. Some people may be more prone to this than others. But it is a reason why the presidents no doubt want to limit -limit the impact in all ways. Preserve the game but limit the number of times contact is made, and ALSO limit all this through the number of games. Just guessing here. Granted that much has been done and there are myriad improvements. The game is safer, no doubt. But if you read the medical reports that must have been presented to these people, their possible reluctance to amp up becomes clearer. I can hear the thudding silence in the room. Potentially five more postseason games if you make a playoff and move on up? Never. You can take that to the bank.

Author: Go Green [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 10:44:32 05/18/24 Sat The rest of the FCS is doing the playoffs in spite of the Russian Roulette that you describe. While I agree that there was a time that injuries posted an existential threat to football, I do not believe that such is the case anymore given the sport's (thank you Teevens) responses to the injury concerns.
