There is a former group of navy seals that do it as training for high school teams all over this country. I have seen it Social media a lot

Yea, I can see that. I know it's after the fact, but asking 15-18 year olds to be coordinated enough to carry a log is risky. Surely, there is a safer activity that requires team work and builds stamina.

My buddy got discharged in part because of how doing that exercise shredded his shoulder. Definitely not smart to do while moving regardless. That's just common sense.

When I was 14 I started working with my dad installing carpet. I carried heavy crap on my shoulders all the time up and down stairs and hills. Crap happens and people get hurt. It just is.

Yea, I think most of us understand that. You could get hit by a bus walking across the street. However, the chances are greater in a busy street as opposed to an empty street.

There are certain things where the percentages are higher that something could happen. I never played football, so I don't know. It seems that most of the log exercises in the military are in standing positions (not walking). Those guys sign up to risk their lives. High school football players know the risks of getting hit but probably not from a log. Just percentages.

That is completely different than carrying a very dense log directly over your head.

OMG..that's ridiculous. You can fall and break your neck taking a shower...are you gonna stop showering? People die doing the things they love everywhere and everyminute..it happens.

Well I am NOW! Geez.

But in all seriousness, we didn't stuff just as if not more dangerous during my high school training. It is tragic and horrible that this happened and the school will probably be sued. However, school boards carry insurance in case someone is injured or killed on their property due to negligence. I feel for the family and friends left to try and make sense of it all. Prayers to them.

As I stated, Butch is just being paranoid of injuries. Butch is also wanting to learn who the backups are.

JG wasn't in the practice videos and there is no mention of him in any of the observations. The 11 on 11 notes had Dormady and McBride, no JG. Anybody know what's up?

He had to take a dump??? Good gosh calm down everybody. Somebody farts in the wrong direction and we're in the verge of 0-12.

Paranoia city up in here lately...
