I don't think it matters though. The unfortunate truth about head injuries is coming out, kids are definitely at risk playing contact football, and that's going to put the schools liable everytime a kid gets knocked out.
As far as MMA, yea, you've got a ton of guys that are obviously fucked up in the head. You've got vicious hits after the knockout where they're bouncing a guy's head off the mat while he's unconscious. The whole point of MMA is to give someone a concussion...
I love football and MMA, but I recognize the society we live in won't tolerate them for many more years.

With football they get the parents to sign waivers kind of releasing the school of liability. I know down your way some parents would disown their kids if they didnt want to play football.
