New York politician seeking to ban tackle football for kids. This fall, collisions killed more skateboarders in the city that Assemblyman Michael Benedetto calls home than youth football players in all of the United States… so just another misguided Democrat busybody intent upon the complete wussification of American boys.

Someone probably mentioned it but Obama has said more than once that he wouldn't let his imaginary son play football so I am not surprised. I feel bad for Sasha and Malia... this imaginary son of Obama's, certainly that has to hurt a bit. I mean come on Obama at least stop with the son bit. It is grating on me and I am not even his daughter I can only imagine what his daughters may think. I feel that Democrats wanting to control everything like this is obviously a plan perhaps to feminize males to make them weak and less capable of intervening in the plans to come? Don't know... but otherwise it doesn't make sense. It seem capricious.
The thing is, his daughters were raised by him, and think that is how a man is supposed to act. They wouldn't know how to act with a real man.
How sad. I wouldn't be surprised if at least one of them ends up marrying a gay man...
Hey Kimmy----what's with the platform flipflops avi? :-D
[Sorry---couldn't resist]
Nothing. I like it :-)
New York is starting to make New Jersey look good.
Not by much. There isn't much difference between the two.
Damn it! Kids should only be playing video games! If they try to play the games for real, they're just going to get injured! And being out in the sunlight might give them cancer! There's also the threat of dehydration if they start sweating!
It's high time we merely shut down the real world and just do things on our TV sets.

hadda do it.
It's even worse then the wussification factor I'm afraid. Organized sports like football teach teamwork, and instill pride in the players. Now the liberal control freaks can't have that happening now can they.
Teamwork is only permissible if it benefits the collective, pride is not permitted because it instills the idea that there is such a thing as individual exceptionalism, and there is no such thing in the world of participation trophies.
Not soccer, but in hockey, Al Arbour, who coached the NY Islanders to 4 straight Stanley Cups, who is a Hall Of Famer, & 1 of the greatest coaches in sports in my lifetime, ran an entire practice without pucks. Including a full squad scrimmage. Now he was pissed at things at what was or was not going right at the time.
As far as matthew's soccer story, its just like the "we don't keep score" leagues. Stupid as hell because despite what those who don't want hurt feelings, the kids ARE keeping score.
in canada they play soccer without soccer balls so everyone gets to score-true story-so why not turn us into the same liberal shit hole right? I'm outta here!
Huh? How do you play soccer without the ball?
Yeah that is not even possible... All these imaginary stuff going on... is very bizarre.
I used to have an invisible Yo-Yo. You should have seen all the fancy tricks I could do with it.
LOL
You're a photographer, you should have filmed it.
This was a number of decades before I became a photographer. Maybe, if I search really hard, I can find that old Yo-Yo, and do a few tricks for the camera.
The same way Obama does everything without balls.
Well... not going there...
That, and most fans lean Progressive or Libertarian? Redskins is a perfect example. Only progressives have an issue. NFL fans could give two poops-in-Al's-pants.
As I said in another thread, the pussification of the American male continues.
How long have Limbaugh & Coulter been talking about the effort to weaken American males? They really want all men to be Chris Hayes. They have no use for guys like Ted Nugent.
But, we do.
This is why I have no problem encouraging youngsters to learn how to shoot. Everyone I know in my age range that has kids is either teaching them to shoot, or trying to convince their wives to let them teach the kids, both boys and girls.
I want to move to Kentucky

I noticed most of the kiddies were taught to fire short bursts from the full auto weapons.
If you are not firing a weapon with a 3 round burst selector switch, 3 to 5 round bursts are preferable to spray and pray.
Someone needs to teach the Taliban that. In the movie Lone Survivor, the use of ammo was my dad's first criticism:
Watching Lone Survivor with a WWII infantryman.
Nice piece. I particularly like how your father still thinks tactically. I do too and I suppose I always will.
Like I always know which way the wind is coming from. I'm a sailor, Dad's an old soldier.
was listening to my son catalog his recent adventures, and apparently he'd scratched himself up quite badly and you know there was a pause, and then he said "That's ok, chicks dig scars." That's MY Boy!
As for the Hyundai commercial. the last shot, the ginger boys grinnin irrepressibly!
It's true, chicks DO dig scars. My right leg gets LOTS of attention. In impromptu scar competitions, I have been beaten in the quantity category numerous times, but then mine does tricks, and I walk away victorious. And very lucky that I can still walk away.

You know who the Obama Brown Shirts are going after first.
I think those kids could probably take Pajama Boy.
How about these kids?

Sweet!
Perhaps it's time to ban politicians..they want to regulate everything, yet nothing gets down and nothing goes right..We are now in the Twilight Zone...
This is making children and boys in particular into nothing but weak lens. Andre53 is right, by doing this now, the dim wits hope to drive out the instinct of being willing to take on tough challenges and willing to exert maximum effort.
