What did Carson Palmer say about violence and NFL football?”
“Football obvious kills far fewer young men than auto crashes, binge drinking and any number of other activities; I leave it to actuaries to calculate the relative likelihood. Football deaths shock us more, because they happen in a game. But it is also necessary to acknowledge that what kills and maims in football is just the underside of what makes NFL football the country’s favorite spectator sport. I don’t believe that violence in itself appeals to most fans, rather than what’s created in the face of that violence.
