American football – not for kids
American football is the most popular sport in the United States. There are 64 countries in the International Federation of American Football. According to television ratings in America, this sport is the clear number one. According to a Harris Poll poll in late 2018, 37 percent of Americans called it a favorite sport. This is the best result among all team sports with a large advantage.
In the direction of the NFL (professional league of American football in the United States) has repeatedly heard statements about the dangers of the game. In response, the league has introduced new rules that should reduce the number of injuries. However, this had little impact on one important thing.
The problem with injuries is not solved, as a concussion is still a common phenomenon in the game. But, concussions are not the main enemy. Chronic traumatic encephalopathy of the brain is a disease that is rarely heard of. The disease can cause aggression, memory loss, and more. Learn more from a reliable source. The disease is not only provoked by concussions. It is caused by small tremors, which happen for the game dozens of times (especially with attackers).
“The cause maybe not only concussions but also insufficient for concussion blows with cumulative effect. Playing American football, you earn yourself brain damage. Unfortunately, we found encephalopathy in more than 96% of the former professional players we surveyed.
“It’s almost impossible to play American football without brain damage.”
The National League knows about the disease but does not take it seriously. Asked about the dangers of football, National League spokesman Roger Wooddell said: “It’s dangerous to live, even to sit on the couch.” You can say not so when you get $34,000,000 a year. The purpose of this article was not to put American football in a bad light. The game has long been part of U.S. culture. This post should convey, as for me, important information about this sport.
If you want to send your child to the American football section, take a look at other sports. Thus, even in the survey, professional players, for whom all life – football, noted that they would not give the child in this game. Much of the information was taken from the show “Adam spoil everything.” Season 1, Episode 14. If you watch the episode, you can find out more about it.
American football. The Nantes Dockers have returned to training
At the beginning of September, the Nantes returned to the field of Mangin-Beaulieu to prepare for the new season of D2.
After a shortened season with only 5 days and for the Dockers 5 losses, president-coach Karl Viau hopes his team will have a better season in 2020-21: Apart from two teams that were above the lot, the other three were within our reach. We can do better for our second year at this level.
On the roster, the Dockers can rely on a group of 60 seniors. We have had ten major starts. It is the end of an era and a certain state of mind. We are fortunate to have been able to fill these departures with some interesting recruits. The team is getting younger.
With a junior and junior section with promising youngsters, the club is developing again this year with a minimal team (13 years).
The Flag section works very well with the Dockers with a group of about twenty elements. The Nantes have proven that they dominate this sector. The results take him away with titles in the league, the Coupe de France and in different tournaments. Not to mention three players spotted to join the Group France.
Karl Viau hopes this season will be good for the Dockers. He, who has been in the presidency for three years, decided to leave the vacancy at the end of the championship. I’m a default president. I needed someone and I took up the position to keep the club going, but that role doesn’t suit me. I prefer the field. It takes new blood in the office to bring new ideas. This year we feminized it a little more.
The club needs to have an operating budget of 60,000 euros and is looking for partners to ensure its season.
Before leaving his chair, Karl Viau has his mind turned to the new season which should start in January depending on the health situation.
At the moment, the Toulouse Bears are not bothered by the postponements of matches. It must be said that the American footballers of the Pink City are in the middle of the offseason and are patiently watching on January 16, 2021, the date of the resumption. Currently, the residents of the golden helmet division (French second division) are fine-tuning their physical condition. “The guys are not about to put on the helmets and shoulder pads until the end of October we work on cardio and muscle,” reveals the president-player Arnaud Montgénie. “Our seniors also have the chance to be followed by physical trainers from Stade Toulousain with whom we are working this season,” the manager said.
