The Viability of High School Football

I think that the last article, the one written for the Grantland website, really struck close to home, touching on the fact that high school football is a dangerous sport that children are allowed to play. The first article is simply factual, trying not to take sides, as a widespread news provider should. The second article attempted to consider itself above all the riff-raff, trying to do something similar to the first article but simply coming across as elitist and holier-than-thou, and asked way to many rhetorical questions. The third article was the one that actually talked about how the kids being killed by football was morally wrong, and that the NFL was doing shady stuff in the name of future profits.

    And I agree with your analysis here of the articles.
