"people will start to think soccer is a bad sport"
My son, who is 19, has been playing since the age of 3. I am an O.R. nurse and have seen far more basketball and football injuries. Freaky things happen everyday and this is, unfortunately, one of them.
And I'll bet you've seen a lot more young car accident patients. So what do we do? Ban basketball, football, soccer, and cars to protect our young?:)
