Coffin Tackling Team Sports 03 02 2022
So as I was playing a word game this morning I realized something about it. In effect you have 6 chances to get a 5 letter word right. That would be like having 6 down in football to make a touchdown.
But you only get 4 downs in football to make a touchdown? No. In some instances you get added downs don't you!!! For example in the case of a bad foul! Automatic First Down! But that first down is really a 5th down or whatever the next in sequence down it is.
So what am I getting at?
What is a Coffin Tackle? As I would define it, it is somewhat like a body slam. The tackler wraps his arms around the offensive players arms and body and drives them down into the ground. Likely giving them a lifetime concussive injury. Highly "illegal" or against the rules in football today! But what about the eye poke through the face mask I also saw on a televised game in my lifetime?
What am I getting at? It is a team sport right? What does that really mean? What does it really mean to be a team sport? Does it mean that just that player should be ejected from that football game or does it mean the team should be ejected from the whole game?
I am asserting right here that the whole entire team should be ejected and told to go home! "Get your junk heads off of my green field."
I would like to see that happen! Rather than, that was just wild eyed so and so who poked the eye or made the coffin tackle or whatever. No. I say the whole team needs to go home and have a, "sorrowful and sulking I am not a man moment." And I am not sure what form of government, religion or gang is represented by the contrary of that.
