American tackle football is an industry like any other. And like many industries, it sells a product that is dangerous to those who use it—or, in this case, those who play it. Daniel S. Goldberg explores the connections among traumatic brain injury, collision sports, and the industry's continuing efforts to manufacture doubt. Focusing especially on youths and adolescents—the most vulnerable population that comprises over 99% of tackle football players in the US—Goldberg addresses the ethical and social implications of their participation in tackle football. As the tackle football industry has consistently worked to mask the health hazards, it has used a particular tool that has proved highly effective in achieving this subterfuge: the manufacture of doubt. Goldberg advocates for using public health laws as a tool for countering these efforts at obfuscation, and he outlines specific policy proposals intended to address the population health and ethical problems presented by tackle football. The book draws on public health ethics, public health law, and the histories of occupational and public health to assess the limits of parental choice to expose their children to risks of injury. Chris Nowinski, former Harvard football player and WWE wrestler, provides a timely and insider's perspective on these critical issues in the foreword.Zum Buch
From the euphoria of the gridiron, to the depths of stress, isolation and depression - and back again. For as long as he can remember, BJ Daniels ate, slept and breathed football. He became a star quarterback at the University of South Florida and went on to play professionally in the NFL, winning the Super Bowl with the Seattle Seahawks in 2013. In many ways, it seemed like BJ was living every athlete's dream. However, he also saw first-hand the lows that accompany being a football player at the highest level. The mental health struggles both he and his teammates faced – often in silence – have inspired a new passion and purpose in him: to share his story, from setbacks to success, and encourage others to face their wellbeing head-on. Here, with raw vulnerability, through his own lived experience, BJ explores the importance of resilience, mindset, dedication, passion and perseverance – all of which can help you to rise above your circumstances. This audiobook embodies BJ’s mission to "Leave No One Behind", and shows us that, beyond all our obstacles, there’s a life worth living.Zum Buch
Ultimate Frisbee, often referred to simply as "Ultimate," is a fast-paced, non-contact team sport played with a flying disc. Combining elements of soccer, basketball, and American football, it emphasizes athleticism, strategy, and sportsmanship. Originating in the late 1960s in the United States, Ultimate has grown into a global phenomenon, with leagues and tournaments held across the world. The game is typically played between two teams of seven players on a rectangular field with end zones at each end. The objective is to score points by catching the disc in the opposing team’s end zone. Players advance the disc by passing it to teammates, as running while holding the disc is not allowed. A turnover occurs if the disc is intercepted, dropped, or thrown out of bounds, giving the opposing team possession. One of the defining features of Ultimate Frisbee is the "Spirit of the Game," a principle that emphasizes fair play, mutual respect, and self-officiation. Players are responsible for calling fouls, resolving disputes, and ensuring the game is played in an honest and respectful manner. This unique approach fosters a sense of community and camaraderie among players.Zum Buch
