Yep this knuckle dragging mentality has no room in any sport as we are seeing retired players battling with post concussion syndrome as well as depression. The NFL now has the defenceless hit on a receiver major penalty because it's been proven that any human being not prepared for a major blow can suffer a brain injury. There should never be a case where an unaware player is put in a position that he can take a major head shot.
I want to be entertained by these guys but I don't want them to put their lives on the line for my entertainment purposes.
