6 high school players taken to the hospital during football practice

it builds character. US Marines very rarely run 5 miles during a firefight but knowing you can get it done helps.

Fullajah, Iraq Nov 2004.

My first thought on this is you never know when you will be fighting someone trained by the French, In that case, you might have to run 5 miles chasing them.

Second, i wish I could go back to my high school football days and start a Spartacus revolution when they brought around our one small dixie cup of some concoction. Just downright stupidity. I sweat that little cup puttin on my pads. Morons coaching then and I feel a moron for letting them do that to me.

We had a drill called "30 seconds" where the coach would blow the whistle and yell "30 seconds" and everyone would start beating the shit out of each other. dudes would be taking there helmets off and swinging them. I mean anything went for that 30 seconds. I doubt it ever helped me in a football game, but I guess it helped me on a collection once. lol (nother story, nother time)

People who can't run in the heat shouldn't be playing sports period. In countries where air-conditioning doesn't exist athletes don't die when they run in the heat. Football is the only sport where people die in the heat. And this is because they are not fit. Soccer players play in 100 degree heat all the time and don't die.

90% of high school football coaches are fukkin losers who road the bench their entire career. i know you have some who are great people, but most of these young pricks think they are hot shit on a high school "campus"

All you do is lock up coach in prison on an endangerment charge and let him get it in the ass a few times from prisoners and he will not do it again.

ttwarrior1 · 08-04-10, 07:19 PM

ttwarrior1 · 08-04-10, 07:19 PM

If I was a coach and my linemen were not fit to play I wouldn't want them on my team. They should be able to run.

well you want to lose everygame then, come the fourth quarter, they will eat your team up, while your lineman are walking around trying to catch there breath,

hell they may die for being out of shape during the game

ttwarrior1 · 08-04-10, 07:31 PM

lol running has nothing to do with the 4th quarter . After a game is over the lineman want more the the running backs and the receivers are the ones tired. Can you read, it was over 100 and in fact its against the law to have practice over 100 degrees.

Carl lewis can't run more than half a mile without being extremely exhausted , is he out of shape too???
P manning has never ran more than 10 seconds straight in his life, is he out of shape???
What about the marathon running guy i played tennis against last week that couldnt even last 3 sets with me??????

nosniboR11 · 08-04-10, 07:35 PM

wow warrior you have no clue

its over 100 everyday here in Texas, jeez, and its not against the law little kid

to answer your ignorant question, yes carl lewis was out of shape, and payton manning runs everyday, idiot
guy you were playing tennis with , you just lying , and your lazy and dont want to go outside and sweat

here go play madden so you feel good about yourself again, lazy lazy kid

MendozaLine · 08-04-10, 07:38 PM

I started on a team that won a state championship in California. We ran, but we were never forced to run in extreme heat, or for an extended period of time.

ttwarrior1 · 08-05-10, 01:50 AM

yes it is against the law here where i live and they don't make their lineman run to death in the heat. Lol you just said p manning runs everyday, not true, you said c lewis is out of shape, not true and yes i did kick that runners ass in tennis, he has to quit, too tired. I lifted for a hour today and did 8 miles on the bike, i did sweat kid.
