I watched our son play this year and yes there were a few times he took some hard hits - one time a kid speared him and another he meet helmet to helmet. Seeing you son in pain is about as awful as it gets but talking to him after he said this "Dad, thats the game. If I didn't think I could take it I would play Flag Football."
These guys are getting paid millions. They better hit. Thats the game.

The parents I know out here frown on football. "Too violent," they say, or even "too macho." They're big on soccer, though I believe that arrives from the social-bonding-climbing aspect, but football here is almost a dirty word.
