The left sucks and they just keep sucking harder. What really sucks is someone is getting paid to make these stupid ass decisions.

It's just a continuation of the leftist, liberal, feel-good bullshit that's been going on for the last 40 years.
On the + side, kids will get so fat and have so many medical problems, they won't be able to join gangs, can't walk the full block to hang with the boyz.

And people wonder why other countrys laugh at us.
that is just sad. getting hurt as a kid is just part of life. it is what they do, how they learn and what makes them strong and better when actual life happens and SHTF at work, their car breaks down, their spouse leaves, etc etc.
kids can't be taught everything is perfect and to protect them from every bad thing that could potentially happen to them. that takes the fun out of their childhood.
pretty much the same thing as all the laws we have now. more and more laws created to tell us what we should do and what we can't do and how much of it we can do.

And people wonder why other countrys laugh at us.
and not just because of our spelling either![ROFL1][Tooth]

are you kidding we used to play dodge ball with softballs cause it hurt more that way.
my son was in trouble at school a few months back cause he and some other kids were playing around in the hallway. not fighting just being boys, they were on their own time, not supposed to be lined up for lunch or anything, on their own time. they were given in school suspension because they were being boys.
total bs

I think it is just a way for the state to get more money, they don't really care about the kids.
I think it's great. . . .the more the .gov upsets the "average American" the closer we get to the reset button.
In fact I don't think it goes far enough. . ..they should consider banning recess at school, and soccer and baseball for kids after school too
All I want to know is wtf is steal the bacon?

The object of Steal the Bacon is take the "bacon" back to your own side without being caught.
In this game, two teams are chosen, and one umpire is selected. One object is required to the bacon. (a glove is a common choice)
The members of each team are numbered. They form two opposing lines and place the bacon in the exact center between them.
The umpire then calls out a number. The players on each side who are assigned that number are the players for that round. No other team members leave their side of the field.
Neither player may touch the other until someone touches the bacon. Once a player touches the bacon however, the other player may tag him/her.
If a player is able to grab the bacon and carry it back over to his/her own side, that team scores a point. (VARIATION: in some games, points are scored by carrying it to the other teams side or either team's side)
If a player is tagged after touching the bacon and before he/she returns their own side, the team that tagged him/her scores a point.
Note that the sequence of play usually involves the two kids running out and hovering over the bacon, waiting for a slight advantage to grab it and run back before the other player can react.
The game is over when a predetermined number of points are scored, or when all numbers have been called.

We used to play steal the bacon as a tackle game, Smear the Queer, flag football ALWAYS turned physical, same with soccer. It just wasn't a good game if people weren't getting tackled, their eyes poked, and if at least one person's shirt was torn and/or someone was bleeding, then it was a good game. I don't get what is the point of letting our kids grow up in a bubble? When I have kids, they're going to be no stranger to physical contact.
We always played full contact basket ball KMO it is the only way bb should be played.
And when we played steal the bacon we ate it.

Damn thanks for the debrief!

aw man, you had a deprived childhood if you never played smear the queer.
it's reverse tag.
one guy is 'it' (the queer) and instead of him trying to tag someone, everyone else is trying to take him down and he has to stay on his feet.
good old fashioned roughhousing.
if no bones are broken, and blood is not gushing, then you dust off and keep going~
I was a tubby little kid and couldn't run fast, but it'd take every one of them to tackle me.
Don't get me wrong we had multiple games of beating the crap out of each other, we just had different names for them e.g. 'British Bulldogs'.
Never did me any harm!
If you want to go one step further into being 'soft' one of the Eurpopean Armies does not allow NCO's to shout at recruits!
Hell I can remember when I was in the Army a Glaswegian NCO screaming at someone (not me) for f'n up something and all I coudn't understand a single word. Knew the guy was getting a beasting though.

We played "Smear the Queer" with a football, you pick the football up and away you go with everyone trying to tackle you.

Yeah, same. I was always small growing up, but fast. So when they did finally catch me, I got nailed pretty good. But it was always fun. We also played a pretty aggressive game of Wall Ball.
You throw a racket ball at the wall and after it bounces back, then bounces on the ground, you are allowed to catch it. If you bounce off the ground first, or catch too early, or miss your catch, you have to go up against the wall and get "pegged" (they throw it at your back, HARD).

I always played it on church activity night and there was never a football around.
