I hope he gets better and back on the field.

The safest youth sports are still shooting and archery.

It’s unfortunate when a player comes up on the wrong side of risk but the benefits of participating in organized football far outweigh the risks.

I grew up playing football. It’s a great sport that is really team oriented.

The injury is a shame. Wish it didn’t happen, but it really is no different than the kid climbing a tree and falling off. It’s an accident. A horrible horrible one, but an accident.

My Aunt and Uncle never let their kids play football (because of the injury fear) until this past year when their youngest son asked if he could play. They gave in and they, and their son, are having a blast (it just ended this past Sunday).

A junior varsity football player was killed last month by helmet-to-helmet contact in a town about 20 miles from me.

I’ll be praying for Donovan. Based on his statement to his Mom, sounds like that young man has some character.

I hope the young man makes a full recovery. I was wondering why his last name is different than his mothers.

Why is this news? Injuries happen every day.
