[QUOTE="KDM, post: 75710, member: 314"] Played FB until I was a sophomore. I was a 135 lb slot back and got hit so hard by the 235 lb senior MLB jumping to catch a pass during practice that I ended up in the 3rd row of the bleachers with a broken arm and intermittent consciousness. He hit me while I was in the air at full speed and that was that. The injury wasn't the issue and I was not angry with the MLB either. He was just doing his job. It was the coach joking about "our defense is casting bodies all over the place" at the next pep fest and the student body laughing about it. It was then I realized that I, as well as my efforts and work, were not important to anybody and I never set foot on the field again. I got a job, bought a truck, and went hunting and fishing every weekend from then on. Now as I look back at 45, my knees, neck, back, hips, and every other part of my body is in fine working order and for that I am eternally grateful to that 235 lb MLB who with one hit, showed me the truth.
