    I feel the same way, and I don't think we're alone. High school football could definitely have an issue in the next generation as far as finding participants.

    Read that after deadline last night, and it is a good angle on the concussion debate. You worry, though, that while schools with the resources of Mater Dei in SoCal can provide all this extensive concussion diagnosis, the poorer schools in the urban and rural parts of the country aren't giving that level of protection to their players.

    And I laughed at the part about the kid using a sock in his helmet, to reduce the number of pimples he got from the inflatable pad. I remember a kid wearing his chin strap too loosely on my h.s. team for the same reason, even though it meant his helmet was constantly getting rattled around.

    Me, I just used the football helmet/chin strap as an excuse for my ugly acne!

    Very funny idea.

    Checked and saw no double vagina coverage on Grantland.

    Grantland seems to have just rolled out a new redesign. It's busier than the first one. I liked the first one a lot, but I think this one works a little better.

    I don't think it's loading right for me.

    This is a solid article about the Royals on Grantland. Sorry if it's been posted already.

    Me either. That's something gone wrong there. You can't even open the stories.

    EDIT: It's fixed now, and yes, it's a sharper-looking website.

    Looks like a website and not a WordPress blog, so that's good.

    I vote no. Like this less than the first version. About which I was not crazy.

    I think I see this same article every January.

    Grantland has hired Bill James. Safe to say this is a phenomenal addition.
