Hot take from an American: American football actually fucking sucks big time and is incredibly MAGA coded these days.

People supporting a sport that 90% of former professional players acquire CTE are fucking morons. Especially given how many young kids get into this shit in highschool, and get CTE and become absolute pieces of shit because of it.

Its baffling this sport and sports with similar problems are still popular, let alone the most popular ones in the US.

Highschool? Everyone i knew got in in elementary or middle school. Those who tried to start in highschool never even touched the field

That's actually so fucked up. How can you encourage or even allow children to join activities that you know is going to injure them permanently?

It’s a training ground for the minds of future voters in that country
