I guess you missed the point so why don’t I spell it out to you.

The correct thing to do is to ban tackle football below a certain age. Probably college. That levels the playing field.

Ah. Yes, I didn't pick that up in what you wrote. The seeming fatalism about how there's not much to do until or unless that happens eclipsed it. That seemed to be the focus of your comment and I could only re-contextualize it once you made it more clear her.

Sorry about the misread!

I'm down with banning tackle football for kids, but "the people who play as kids have an unfair advantage in going pro" is an incredibly weird reason to think it should be banned.
