Football is dangerous - people collide
with
each other and with the ground, and
pads
notwithstanding, they are hurt -
sometimes crippled. Football fans like
the
strategery involved - so why not touch
football? Clearly, violence is part of the
appeal.
I propose taser touch football.
Players
would carry tasers and the ball carrier
would be tased instead of tackled.
Blocking would be the same - no
grabbing, so no tasing. Getting tased
hurts, but a perusal of youtube will show
many taser parties and inebriated,
giggling men tasing one another with no
seious ill effects.. Getting tased is safer
than physically tackling and subduing a
person, which is why tasers help cops kill
fewer people. TT football would retain
the
strategy and substitute a safer form of
violence.

Does offense get tasers too? I mean, uh, just in case somebody fumbles the ball, which would probably happen every single play. |
