Football in America: How we really feel about the game today

---

He works with his former teammates on their drills and in breaking down film, and he watches games from the sidelines. That has helped with the transition. Things are definitely changing. The six officials seated around a conference table at the office of the Parsons Kans. Recreation Commission can sympathize with the teary former footballer miles to the north.

They, too, weighed the impact of head injuries in football and last summer switched their third- and fourth-grade tackle leagues to flag. Or perhaps the dangers of head injuries are just too obvious to ignore in Whatever the reasoning, there are roughly 84 children playing flag football for the PRC this fall, more than triple number that participated in tackle one season ago. The six officials will oversee the playoffs tomorrow and so far have no major injuries to report. As they talk, a life-sized cutout of Hill smiles creepily in the background. As a seventh-grader Shaun injured his neck when an opponent tackled him into a bench on the sideline; Ted made him sit out the next season.

Players retiring over concussions? Good luck explaining such things to Gary Lothrop, a year-old veterinarian and Nebraska fan who every week writes scathing emails about Cornhuskers football and fires them off to plus eager readers. He takes a sip of water. Sometimes I get crap in my ears.

Is football even a career choice they should have? They have turned football into a game for people that should wear pink panties! His daughter suffered a concussion while playing youth soccer; his younger son sustained three concussions one of them when an errant mini-golf putt smacked him in the head. Most of them, anyway. Before a game at Northwestern in September, three black Nebraska players knelt during the national anthem.

That incident came three weeks after Colin Kaepernick knelt during the anthem. That, too, struck a nerve in places like Lincoln. When the three Cornhuskers followed suit, Gov. Their son Jason is a senior who starts at left guard for the Boilermakers. If the team travels that afternoon, so do they. The ratings will go back up. Parents are too serious at youth games. The NFL was ruined by big business. What fans want most is for their way of life—the romanticized way they see their own past—to remain unchanged.

So they drink beer. They hug their relatives. They, too, have lost themselves in football. On his way out Riley kisses his wife on the cheek, then he walks through a door that reads tradition of toughness and heads out into the night. Patrons half-listen as they shoot pool, roll Skee ball and play table tennis. Two years ago, when his youngest son expressed a desire to play football, Riley decided to study the medical literature available on head injuries.

It also found the risk of death from neurodegenerative disease to be low for both groups—4. Quarterbacks, he says, could have been higher-functioning to begin with. While the beer drinkers mock the candidates on TV, Riley adds a disclaimer to his argument. But he is saying the sport needs long-term epidemiological investigations that follow youth or high school players for 40 or 50 years, examining how they lived, where they came from and how they died.

Riley sustained concussions in his own football career; he once forgot his name when a doctor asked. He mentions Todd Ewen, a hockey enforcer whose family believes he may have shot himself because he believed he had brain damage. Somebody famous commits suicide and kids copy it. What happened with CTE is it created a narrative for [football players] to have a fatalistic view of their lives. Midway through the debate Trump fields a question about gun rights and points out how in Chicago they have the toughest gun laws in the U.

Hope for his football team. Hope for his star running back as he recovers from multiple gunshot wounds. Hope is what Williams, 43, has left. Nine times out of 10 players will choose the streets instead of coming to practice.

Hundreds of text messages pinged on his phone when he landed. Everett was shot six times. Williams visited him that Monday, and not only had the year-old survived six shots to his hands, buttocks and abdomen, but he was walking down the hospital halls with one of those bullets still lodged in his chest. Henderson told his coach what he remembered: He was sitting on his porch, sending text messages, when a man put a gun in his face. Henderson jumped off the porch, ran and heard Pop-pop, pop-pop, pop, pop. As he bled on the ground, he says, the gunman stood over him and continued to shoot, even after running out of bullets.

Then he walked off, sauntering almost, while Henderson crawled back to his porch. Many walk through gang- and drug-infested neighborhoods. A building that can hold 4, students is now home to about Through it all Williams sees improvement in his players, who largely go to class and plan for college.

You can get hurt walking down the street, like Everett Henderson. My dad took me to Raiders games. I loved everything about it. A couple weeks ago a kid got hit in the stomach and died two days later. They had never seen anything like it. Just from that one hit. Some collisions that cause catastrophic injuries can appear harmless.

The headfirst, open-field tackle Donnovan attempted on Nov. He said kids need to learn how to tackle correctly before they get to high school. Dixon says her son's concern about the game, and his passion for it, coexisted after his injury. Then he started getting comfortable with himself and what had happened, and it got easier. After that, he watched every Saturday. The college game was his passion, which is why his mom can only watch pro games. I lost my kid to it, but I know how he felt about it. He still loved the game. Nineteen-year-old Peyton Smith likes the sport that his famous father plays, but he loves a different one.

He is the son of wide receiver Steve Smith Sr. But while Peyton watches football and follows football, he does not play football. Smith took up the so-called beautiful game when he was four, displaying the speed, athleticism and shiftiness that has positioned his father as a potential Hall of Fame inductee. He tried football at 12, played the same position as his dad and wore his number, Peyton wears a red N.

Sixteen seasons of hit after hit after hit. She freaks out a lot. Peyton was at the game when his father tore his Achilles last season. Three months later Steve was there, beside his son at the dais, beaming, when Peyton signed a letter of intent at DePaul after piling up 30 goals and 28 assists as a Carmel Christian senior in Matthews, N. Peyton, like most of his friends, wakes up early on weekends to watch the English Premier League.

His viewing options for both sports have multiplied in recent years. He watches soccer online and catches football on Twitter every Thursday. He sustained a concussion when he collided with an opponent at He pauses, considering the future. Anyone foolish enough to imagine the death of Football in America might as well make the three-hour drive north from DePaul, hugging the shores of Lake Michigan, I to I, to Green Bay.

In Titletown, there are more professional football players than there are Uber drivers, which says as much about the size of the city pop. Those drivers are often called upon to drop visitors off at Packers landmarks, their rides consumed by conversations about the game and what it means here. Take Jason Murphy, a dispatcher who drives for Uber in his spare time and who let his previous ride off at the Packers Hall of Fame building. He trails off, leaving unsaid what seems obvious, that Football in America is changing, even in Green Bay.

Strangers still wave at cars that pass through the neighborhoods around the stadium. Tourists still stop by the statues of Vince Lombardi and Curly Lambeau for photo ops. But that quaint, small-town vibe now competes with the chaos of construction. The Packers are building a Titletown District on 34 acres of land just west of Lambeau.

Same as on the field. I miss the bone-jarring hits. There seem to be less of them. But I might be a little bloodthirsty, too. Meet David Baker, whose voice booms as he recalls Trump visiting his workplace in September. The two men discussed the crisis the sport faced in , when at least 18 people died playing football, and how President Theodore Roosevelt famously stepped in, encouraging safety changes and the forward pass.

He promised to make America great again. Because of concerns over concussions or the violence in the game, it has somehow become politically incorrect to speak out for football. A pro football faction? It will have a revamped museum and sports complex, a hotel and conference center, a center for coaching and officiating clinics, restaurants and retail stores, a virtual-reality area and an assisted-living facility for former NFLers.

From to , Baker was the commissioner of the Arena Football League, where he grew attendance, TV ratings and revenue. Two of his sons played college football, at USC and Duke. The village, these grand plans—Baker says they should reinforce the lessons his sons learned through the game. Football and its values are timeless and universal. Kris Jenkins is at his home in Washington, D.

A menacing nose tackle who weighed as much as pounds, he played 10 seasons for the Panthers and the Jets, doling out and enduring punishment in equal measure—he sustained at least 10 concussions in the pros and college and made the Pro Bowl in most seasons when he was remotely healthy. Since retiring, Jenkins sometimes feels numbness on the left side of his body.

Occasionally his brain is foggy.

But he has few, if any, beefs with football. He loves the game. They did—they had everything to do with what I knew I was getting myself into. Jenkins takes a breath and continues preaching. A lot of the queasiness is coming from outside. We know when we play that we may have—how should I say it? Football, he says, especially at the NFL level, has become increasingly politicized. We— players —want the integrity to be preserved. Good luck trying to stop that.

Concussions— Uh oh, got a little ding on the head? The same mingling of football and politics is playing out 45 minutes northeast of Jenkins, in a long trail of downtown Baltimore tailgates canopied by the humming strip of I overhead. Ravens fans—nearly all of them white and between the ages of 20 and 40—are strolling, laughing, yelling, texting, texting, texting. Hundreds of elbows are bent at 90 degrees, cans, bottles and red cups in hand. A Pitbull song shouts over the din. Half of these people appear drunk; maybe a fourth of the grand total look hammered.

Football in America is, among other things, a place to get intoxicated on Sunday morning without fear of judgment. Sabrina and Crystal Morris are sisters; Sabrina has either had a lot to drink or has a low tolerance. The women are clad in Ravens black, with stylish purple accents. Anthony Gibson, cousin to the sisters, wears a Doug Williams No.

This is when you lose your coworkers as friends, a game like this. Would it have even been possible for Trump to become the nominee in , the last time these teams played? We should be proud as a country, and players should—. At the end of the first quarter, Washington cornerback Josh Norman lies facedown after making a tackle, his toe kicking the turf in agony. Norman rises and continues, defying the replay that shows his right wrist being crushed.

In the third quarter, Redskins tight end Jordan Reed, who has already been diagnosed with five concussions in his three-year career, takes a brutal hit to the back of his helmet. He opens his eyes wide and shakes his head rapidly. Moses finishes the game and then starts the next week against the Eagles. But then she gets into it. What would happen at your workplace if, say, everyone stood for the Pledge of Allegiance and one person took a knee?

Jones never, in fact, said that, although a similar quote was errantly attributed to him. Just do something else to protest, away from the National Anthem. At halftime, a Baltimore policeman stands guard near the beer stands. Jon is a black guy in his late 20s; he's wearing an oversized No. Of Kaepernick, he says: But he has the right to do that. The Redskins lead but the Ravens are marching.

Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco lofts one deep toward the back corner of the end zone, where Breshad Perriman has beaten Norman. Zebraed arms go up. The ensuing eruption stings the ears. Ravens fans pogo all around them. Back up the tunnel, a replay on the massive video screen shows that Perriman only got one foot inbounds. The TD is overturned. Redskins linebacker Trent Murphy walks behind them, all by himself. In solitude he ascends the slow-rising ramp, the fading sun lighting his red hair.

A football question follows, because it seems called for after that first one, but a thought lingers, drowning out the answer. Will that kid remember the moment with his mom—that beautiful synapse that fired between them. Or is it gone? Is that all it takes? What else but football could create it in the first place?

Sean wears a distressed Redskins hoodie and ballcap, Ashley a purple Ravens sweater. All the new penalties and rules. The reactions to the reactions. Not anytime soon, though. We all love it too much. Someone in here is holding. What started off tentatively is now a rollicking conversation. Entrees have been eaten. A brief bar game ensues: Name some language and tactics that the armed forces and football have in common. All these gun murders in Chicago. This culture of violence that Trump is speaking—relaxing gun laws, building a border wall, rounding up Muslims.

That mind-set exists in this country. That he has a following, it helps you understand why football is still so popular. NFL players experience that nasty intermingling every day. He says his back hurts.

Every public figure gets it. Whereas Kaepernick began kneeling for the national anthem, the Seahawks this season have been locking arms in an alternative demonstration of pregame unity. Baldwin, meanwhile, has met with police-monitoring groups, beat cops, the Washington attorney general, various mayors in and around Seattle, and local business leaders. And this is what people have written him:. It becomes an issue, a burden and so.

The framework is a little different. The times have changed. The environment has changed. The climate has changed. Does this all force everyone to—. To learn more about what may be driving viewers away from the game, we travel to what will end up being an exceptionally rainy Chiefs-Raiders game final score: Kansas City 26, Oakland I remember going to the Coliseum with my dad and watching the Rams when I was five; I played football in high school and in college. People go to a football game to be entertained, right? And [these guys] get paid a lot to do the entertaining.

And there are people who are more conservative, more concerned about patriotism, than we are. If the true hardcore NFL fan is one who watches games not on TV but at the stadium, then there are a select few among that group—namely, those willing to hang around until the end of a rain-soaked snoozefest, when the outcome is in zero doubt—who have cores like diamonds. The pregame rain at Oakland Coliseum one day later is nothing short of a downpour. Is it head injuries? The internet has gotta affect it. Brothers Daniel and Gerardo Rodriguez, aged 30 to 50, walk over the hissing Freeway, their Nikes splashing toward the fog-shrouded stadium.

I have no idea [why the ratings are down]. Maybe easier access, people watching on their phones. A middle-aged Raiders fan who does not share his name enjoys a tented tailgate just outside the stadium. He is extremely inebriated. Football is a game. Hey, you know what? Not everybody plays it. The guys that do, they get paid for it. Maybe the publicity on how, after years of playing sports, it affects their body.

Well, they knew it—and they got paid to do it. Have somebody else fight for you. They wear wet Raiders caps and jerseys. He could have done it a different way. A lot of people watch the NFL. But watch hockey—those guys hit. You know what you get yourself into. The game has become soft. Very soft compared to what it used to be. I love football, I will always love football, but compared to 20 years ago, the game has changed. Too many rules are being made. They knew exactly what they signed up for. Jesse, a black man who appears to be in his early 30s, is wearing a Raiders ski cap and a Stanford rain jacket.

The Kaepernick issue has made me want to watch football, watch how people respond to it. That actually makes [the game] more appealing to me. This he gestures toward the field is entertainment. Eight hours to the southeast, through Yosemite and Death Valley national parks, in the self-proclaimed entertainment capital of the world, Elsin Hin steers his taxi toward the Las Vegas Strip as the sun rises on yet another NFL Sunday.

Having moved here from northern Virginia, he roots for the Redskins. That makes it harder to watch. Later this morning, a white man pulls up to the Wynn Las Vegas casino in a sports car and heads inside for breakfast. Over eggs and toast the Gambler reiterates the ground rules: He wears a crisp salmon-colored polo shirt, takes his vitamins and carries an iPad. A friend calls for advice. Should his advice pay off, he asks for nothing other than perhaps a favor down the line.

Everybody wants an angle, a slight edge. He describes how when he first committed to this life his father drove him to a department store where men exited carrying boxes of clothes and climbed into Cadillacs.

Eventually the Gambler made safer bets, mostly on college football and basketball. He gave up the NFL. He adds and subtracts points for injuries, home-field advantage, new coaches and dozens of other factors. Rules change every year; it never ends. If Alabama is a 2 and Auburn is a 9, his number for that game is 7. If the line is 2. The Gambler figures he needs a The line at the betting windows is about 30 gamblers deep. Bets made, they recline in oversized leather chairs, track their fantasy scores and drink coffee, screwdrivers and light beer.

What separates the Gambler from these bettors is discipline. All the new kids try the NFL, the Gambler says. They come to Vegas with their spreadsheets and their algorithms; they play daily fantasy football and bet the games. On the TVs overhead a Titans player is carted off. Three years ago, his team had winnings in the mid-six figures. Last year he lost nearly that much. Avello has been setting lines for 30 years. When people say Vegas had the line right, Avello is who they mean.

In the past six years, Avello also noticed more spreadsheets and more computers around these parts, but the influx of information works both ways. He has more statistics at his disposal too. He has invited league officials to watch his operation, to show them how hard it would be to fix a game.

She blames the media. She blames Kaepernick and the way he kneeled for the national anthem; she blames all the protests. The money machine rolls on. Later, the Bucs beat the 49ers, meaning that the Gambler picked three of five correctly. The humbling journey of the Vandals faithful mirrors that of millions of former homeowners in this country, particularly their dreams of upward mobility, and the nightmare of a bubble that burst. Since , 20 college football programs have moved up to the FCS. Only one of them has chosen to return to FBS. Fans of football, the ultimate no-surrender team sport, have never taken kindly to quitters, whatever their explanations.

Idaho enjoyed decades of football success in what used to be I-AA, Staben explains, until , when they moved up to play the big boys. Idaho had two options: Adding to the awkwardness of the demotion: The current team is doing just fine against FBS foes and may, in fact, become bowl eligible. The Vandals have shown they can compete at the level that, because of money, they are being removed from.

Glaringly absent from the decision-making process at Idaho were the young men who actually take the field. How about three from a list of six sophomores? Sorry, no, comes the reply. This, also, is Football in America. He was just sitting there on the physio bed, eating pizza and chips. But I did anyway and he was really nice, asking me about myself, what my plans were and giving me some advice.

After joining the club when he turned 16, McCormack spent two years at Manchester United. He came through the ranks alongside the likes of Jonny Evans, Danny Welbeck and Danny Drinkwater, but a breakthrough ultimately eluded him. The benefit of hindsight allows McCormack to recognise now that his prospects of succeeding in England would probably have been aided by joining a club further down the pecking order, but try convincing a teenage United fan that rejecting a contract offer from Old Trafford is a wise career move.

I could have gone to a smaller club where I maybe would have had a better chance of breaking in, but I was a United fan so all I wanted to do was go there. It set me up for the career that I have had. Despite having offers in the UK, McCormack bucked the trend by heading for Italy when his time at United came to an end. However, the champions are certainly in title contention once again. McCormack believes the best is yet to come, and that the upheaval in terms of the personnel available to Caulfield has been a significant factor thus far.

When I came in last year I think it was just me and Ryan Delaney who were the only new players brought into a settled side. This year there must be six or seven. These things take time.

Seattle Seahawks defensive end Michael Bennett sat on the visiting bench during the anthem before the preseason opener against the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday, a decision he made before weekend protests by white supremacists in Charlottesville, Virginia. Then, in a feat of astonishing power, he quite literally runs over pound safety Rashad Johnson, who flies toward the sideline like an overzealous stunt man in a cheesy car chase. The killing of African American males spawned the Black Lives Matter movement and spilled into the sporting arena.

Spoke to friends and family members after the game, and they provided some advice. A next step for Coley will be how he looks in games on kickoff returns.
