Play This Sport at Your Own Risk
Written by Pat's Papers | Wednesday, 28 July 2010 7:31 AM
In order to warn players about their risk of head injury, the NFL has required teams to put posters up in their locker rooms explaining how to protect themselves against concussions. In this spirit, the Wall Street Journal has created their own list of warnings. NHL players are warned about the dangers of Dental Trauma (which causes “trouble enunciating certain words and syllables”), NBA stars are reminded that Apathy can cause the desire “to update Twitter while your team is on defense” and bulls are solemnly informed that “the skinny men in sequins are trying to kill you.”
