In my days lived in the corporate consumer world, the NFL was my biggest distraction. I used to spend every Sunday drinking beer at the bar betting on the games. I had a fantasy football team where I remember rooting that the real life human being would get injured so I could win my fantasy matchup that week. I left all of that years ago but I watched this documentary last night on the long-term effects of having your brain hit the inside of your skull repeatedly as what happens on every single play for these guys. The end result isnt pretty. Question: If you consider yourself a fan of the National Football League, how do you get past the dehumanizing aspects of a brutal sport and what kind of message does it promote to our children when we are telling them to rip the other kids head off?
