is the forward pass hurting high school football?

[theawesomebro]

in my day, we didn't have no "cleats" or "pads" and our helmets were leather!  and we didn't have no forward pass!!  we just got the pigskin (it was literally made from a pig right before the game) and ran over everyone else!!  oh, man those were the days.  you knew you really played a game if you got a compound fracture!!  and we didn't whine or complain.  we just popped the bone back in and went back on the field!

 

just messin.  : )

Ahh, back in the day when people could read a map, get a good joke and had feelings that didn't get hurt! People worked a job for 40 years and were good at it, loved their spouses, Jesus and their children. Yes I am an old curmudgeon and I like it.
