Earlier this week, Los Angeles Times columnist Bill Dwyre wrote about how he had lost faith in the NFL after the recent concussion issues the league faced.
Daniel Flynn, the author of the book "The War on Football: Saving America's Game," had a rebuttal to Dwyre's column on the viability of football. He defends football, noting that the game is much safer than it was decades ago.
Flynn said to take away football -- a sport, as he has written in his book, that builds character and team building -- only will invite children to use their growing testosterone and aggression in a negative manner.
