et: "zsilverball" wrote in message oups.com... You em genius. You know how to Google. If he can do that, maybe you can figure out the difference between a bicycle and a football newsgroup. Maybe, but playing football involves repeated, ritualistic blows to the head, while biking only requires enough to allow us to sport some kind of 'Red Badge of Courage' cycling scar as a conversation topic. |

FSVO "football"... Works for any value of "football" I know of. One nephew isn't allowed to head the ball in his youth soccer league because of the physical problems with blows to the head and neck trauma in children, which points to the problem with blows to the head in that sport, and another wears one of those helmets with a mouthpiece attached to the faceguard, and scuff marks all over the top, which points to problems with blows to the head in that sport. Perhaps you are talking about Canadian 'football'? |

Why not just wrap them in cotton wool and leave them in a cardboard box outside the cemetery? And why do they call it "football" when the ball gets kicked about ten times in the course of five hours?
