Some people even liken it to the "sport" of boxing. I don't buy that argument but I do know our awareness of concussions, etc has exploded in recent years. We are seeing even high powered programs like Iowa City West HS have some trouble getting enough players to come out for football! The parents may be instrumental in ending high school football at least and the biggest part of me finds that very sad!<u></u><u></u></p></div><p class="yiv8451425632MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p><div><div><p class="yiv8451425632MsoNormal">On Thu, Sep 21, 2017 at 9:04 AM James Kusack <<a rel="nofollow" shape="rect" ymailto="mailto:kusack@cox.net" target="_blank" href="mailto:kusack@cox.net">kusack@cox.net</a>> wrote:<u></u><u></u></p></div><blockquote style="border:none;border-left:solid #cccccc 1.0pt;padding:0in 0in 0in 6.0pt;margin-left:4.8pt;margin-right:0in;"><div><p class="yiv8451425632MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p><div><div><p class="yiv8451425632MsoNormal">On Sep 20, 2017, at 11:26 PM, Gwen Enokian <<a rel="nofollow" shape="rect" ymailto="mailto:gmcnhawkeye@gmail.com" target="_blank" href="mailto:gmcnhawkeye@gmail.com">gmcnhawkeye@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<u></u><u></u></p></div><p class="yiv8451425632MsoNormal"><br clear="none"><br clear="none"><u></u><u></u></p><blockquote style="margin-top:5.0pt;margin-bottom:5.0pt;"><p class="yiv8451425632MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;">interesting </span><u></u><u></u></p><div><p class="yiv8451425632MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;">better wall to wall seasons will increase sales <u></u><u></u></span></p></div></blockquote></div><p class="yiv8451425632MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p></div><div><div><p class="yiv8451425632MsoNormal">I dunno.
