Our latest poll question at www.appealdemocrat. com asks:

High school football participation has dropped nationwide for a second straight year. Do you think the sport is safe for youths? Your choices are:

No. There are too many injury risks, especially for young people.

Yes. Talk of risks and injury impacts have been overblown in recent years.

The game would be much safer with some rule changes (tackling, etc.)

There are so many safer alternatives that I don’t know why people play.

The decision should be left up to each family.

If the kids want to play the sport, then let them play.
