I don’t know, but to be fair, by assident I heard this segment and it made me wonder about a lot of other sports.
Mountain biking, where you have people racing through the woods risking skin and broken bones (I have some experience in this arena) and running over defenseless animals like turtles, squirrels and snakes. Only a matter of time before my favorite activity is outlawed. I mean hell, you ever seen what those downhill racers do? Or the Red Bull events in Utah? Somebody is gonna get hurt in those things. Concussions are probably harsher than a broken femur but not a broken neck. That’s gotta be as dangerous as football. A 280 pound linebacker is gonna hurt you, but a 70’ gap jump you fail on, is gonna be just has bad.
Skateboarding. We’ve all seen the YouBoob vids of nitwits failing to grind that handrail, only to end up with their ‘nads smashed against either the rail or the board, or both. Ouch baby, gotta go.
Giving large caliber handguns to unprepared people, especially skinny gals with lowcut tops. The chick always ends up with a black eye or a bloody nose. I say we outlaw that, in the interest of redneck motherhood if nothing else.
Trampolines. Has any good ever come from people using those terribly dangerous devices? Some knucklehead always tries to see what will happen if he jumps off the roof onto one. Or some fool doing a backflip lands on the ground on his head instead of the trampoline. Gotta go.
Think of the chirrens, we need Obama to take action!
For the Children...
Every fun thing I did in my childhood is being banned or regulated.
From bicycling without helmet or knee pads, diving boards, eating junk food, riding in the back of a truck and even farm work is verboten by our overlords.
And forget about sneaking smokes from my parents.
Nope, would't wish to be a kid today for all their video games...
