[QUOTE="JazzyD95, post: 20547, member: 6"] Football is a violent sport. Injuries are going to happen, and there is NO way to prevent them. The new rule changes are hurting the game in many different ways, and I fear a bubble wrap rule is in the works. As someone who recently finished his ball playing career, nothing pissed me off more than rule changes and the way the media portrays football these days. They need to Just let the players play the game. This new targeting rule that results in the ejection of players needs to be repealed asap, as it is just an utter disgrace to the game. I can't tell you how annoying it is to make a play and then you get flagged for roughness because the hit was too hard, or too high, or because A player didn't hold the other players hand afterwards and whistle Dixie. The rules arnt effective either. For example take Rob gronkowski this year. He wouldn't have blown his knee out if the safty had hit him higher, but due to certain rules implemented the DB chopped his legs out from under him instead. So essentially, concussions may go down, but leg and hip injuries are going to go up. Apologies if I ranted. [/QUOTE]
