Should youth tackle football be banned?
In light of the recent discussion surrounding banning tackle football in California for children under 12, Snoop said he will continue endorsing all versions of the sport.
“I think that it represents positivity, unity and what's necessary,” Snoop said. “Some of these kids need that. This is all they have and through sports and football, you can achieve many things. It doesn't always have to be going to the NFL. It's more about achieving life goals.”
this level? Who calls plays that moves the kids around and do all this? I need him. Who is the defensive guy that can stop all of that, bring all these guys up front and then have great guys back there? I want the best coaches and then the best recruiters. Who is going to be able to go get those kids from down South to mix them with California and put them together? It has to be that.
“That's a lot to put on your shoulders and say I want to run out the tunnel with these kids. You have to have all of that together before you can run out the tunnel with those kids and Prime has been priming himself for this for a long time and remember this, his babies are on that team. When my babies was on the team, I coached every level I could coach, so if they would have went to the next level and they would have asked me to come, I would have ran right with them because I'm better for my babies because I see what you can't see as a coach but I will bring in a coach to coach them but I'm going to help my babies in areas that you can't because I see what you can't see in them.
“So I'll have to say no I won't take a job in the NCAA so ya'll coaches don't have to worry about Snoop Dogg coming to get y'all. Y'all cool because all y'all kids going to come play for me anyway because my NIL deals gonna be way better than y'alls. It is what it is so y'all can breathe easy. Don't worry about it. I'm not coming to get you.”
On a lighter note, when Snoop was around the age of the players portrayed in “The Underdoggs,” in addition to playing youth sports, he said he was a paperboy who sold subscriptions to the Long Beach Press-Telegram.
“By the way I used to sell the Long Beach Press-Telegram,” Snoop said. “I was one of those door-to-door guys: `Hi ma'am my name is Calvin, I work for the Press-Telegram, would you like to subscribe?' I was one of those guys, so good job.”
