I liked this article, but I believe there were a few points that could be improved on. I think football is a really interesting sport. While none of my close family or friends has played the game, I always believed it was very hard. The author does a great job of getting the point across, especially with his analogy to war. This article can really relate to today, with reports of NFL players experiencing post traumatic injuries in their brains and also with many young players dying. However, the article was very long and the author almost seemed to repeat himself at some points. That fact aside, the article was still very good.

Here is a compilation of hard hits seen in the NFL to see just how dangerous the sport is.
