The big anti-hijack thread.....
Talk about anything, but if this works than we don't have to keep looking around all the threads to see who is still on tonight, and every night, or even every day! Talk about the chiefs, talk about tomorrow, talk about football, politics or even how to do flooring and the applicable budget. What you're drinking, how hard it is to sleep, etc. Every thing is acceptable in this thread.....
I've been playing for a long time, and no serious injury. And we hit each other hard sometimes. The fatter kid in our group sprains his ankle every now and again. It's good exercise. I play about three days in a week, then take a week or two to heal up. I usually play flag during the healing time though if it's just bruises.
Usually when we get somebody new to play tackle, they think we're joking. Then they think we're going to go soft on them. Then they start to get into it and have fun. Then at the end, they either ask us when we're playing again and where, or they leave crying because they tore their pants or got a booboo.

I played Tackle football once without pads about 3 years ago and broke a kids collar bone. I had caught the ball and he tried to tackle me.
The worst part is that it is one of my best friends so I couldn't just dip out and never see him again, although my friend was cool about it and took responsibility.
Well yeah, it was on him. He was out there. But it's gotta be a rock in the gut to do that to somebody. Nobody I play with has ever broke anything. My brother used to take some bad hits to the head and couldn't see anything but black dots a few times. We broke a guys arm once in a pick up game, not sure how he recovered, didn't really know him.
Sports Nation is a very respectable show, Bug. And I think Michelle Beadle is hot. Yeah, I said it. Even though she doesn't know what the fuck she's talking about.
