[QUOTE="Mondio, post: 835853, member: 10441"] more injuries wouldn't surprise me either, as that brings me back to something i've said in the past about athletes overworking. Little things become big things because they're pounded on daily year round. and it doesn't start when they're 24 and in the NFL, it starts at 10 these days. We haven't even gotten to the worst of it. They think concussions are going to ruin the NFL? HA! youth sports are going to kill professional sports. Just wait. Half the kids are shunned before they even start in a lot of places. haven't hit puberty yet and already on the outside because they weren't good enough to be included at 9, though they could dominate at 15. But they never had the interest or the opportunity. The other half are going to be dealing with major league injuries by the time they're 15, they probably won't make it out of college. Under developed and over competing. It's a problem today but that's another story. Then you have the ones that were great at 12 because they practiced every day since they were 4 and have a mustache, but find out other kids catch up when they're 17 and they arne't that great relatively speaking anymore and they burn out or quit. Back to the NFL. we haven't really hit that wave of kids yet, but there are a lot now starting to come into the league where 1 sport started to dominate early and be played year round, but now just in the league they train hard year round. Leads to bigger faster stronger. Also leads to more injuries. that little inversion sprain that never healed can become an ACL or meniscus later when you pound on it long enough. [/QUOTE]
