    I would think that if you are a parent of a soccer player regardless of gender you should read this since you are concerned for the health and safety of your child.

    Fans may want to as well, since players we follow and support will also be affected, for the better we hope.

    • Tim, FYI, the link worked for me without the cut and paste.

      As to the article, agreed it is indeed progress. It’s a nice thing to see MLS in the forefront and trial program. Putting a team/manager and even the player themselves in a position to choose possible long term health damage vs. continuing on in a soccer match is a horrible decision to have to make. Hopefully the program will stick and that choice won’t have to be made any longer.

    The link worked?? NO kidding. Hmm. We will have to test whether it was a one-off fluke or whether we can now put links in comments. Thanks.

    • Still blue and clickable for me. Still works.

    • Yes links are allowed and if you post a full URL the website should convert it to a clickable link.

      However, comments with links are flagged more often by our spam filter for moderation so it might delay when your comment gets posted.
