Very interesting. Shows how ridiculous we are when it comes to sports. Parents want to risk their children for scholarships and fame. It was an eye opener when I saw the effects of concussion. Reinforced by a judge, which could be understandable if the staff really was negligent after the game.
It gave me a chuckle, when I got to the end. And, after all the riggamarole that the parents went through. This kid still didn't get to play much. GOOD JOB COACHES :)
