Some of the guys I used to know play college foot ball for a top university ( won't say) . If they haven't done what they done in high school, they would not have been accepted into those school rather be even on a team or be looked at to play in the NFL...most ppl in the Olympics are doing the same. I mean I see a 14 yr old squad 450lbs , that's some crazy shit. For some , there decision can bring them a life and others cant make it because they get injured or w/e they have to deal with the future problems from there use alone . It's a risk but kids who are serious about the sport, they probably been in that sport for 3-5 years and that like a 1/3 of there life time of they are 16-17yrs old so that's all they know . And they ll do what ever to win

Half my High School State Championship Football Team Was Bigger Stronger Faster. We take Football very Serious in Texas.

I'm a very mature 17 and I plan on going pro so it's ok.
