Final Thoughts
By now most if not all have heard that at the 2028 Olympics in LA, flag football will be introduced as a potential new sport. I think it’s great and should expand the game worldwide. I just have a few concerns over it. I think it will deplete the contact game with less (ed’s note: fewer) kids playing or parents willing to let their child play tackle football.
The other issue I have is the NFL is pushing to have professional athletes compete in them. For me that is BS (ed’s note: Banana Slippers) and should not be allowed at all. The point of the Olympics is for amateur athlete to show their talent in the sport they have been playing or training in for years.
The NHL and NBA shouldn’t be allowed to participate either. A few years ago the AAFL had teams of amateurs and former pro players play in a tournament with a grand prize of 1 million dollars and the amateurs won it with ease. (ed’s note: this is very much because the pros literally did not know the rules of the game…) Flag Football and Tackle football are 2 totally different games and need to be kept that way. I’m sick of professionals being allowed to compete in amateur sports. Before I let you go, remember we are playing a game, so go out, have fun, and don’t kill anyone.
