Oh, OK. My older son got a concussion in practice last year that caused him to miss the last game of the season and the playoffs. The problem with practice is that often the coach will say "run it again!" and the entire defense now keys and converges on one guy. Not to mention the entire reason a coach does this is because the defense screwed up the first time and therefore wants to look that much more dominant on the replay. Any coach that does this will full contact should be fired.

Here's a pic of older son scoring the second of his two TDs in the first practice game (taken from the TV broadcast; his team scored three total in their victory and he was named MVP).
