I think the Commish wants to get fired, he wants to eliminate kickoffs.

More needs to be done at the lower levels of football. Once a football player retires from football at say age 36 he might have been playing football for 30 years. At that level the contact, while not as hard as it appears in the NFL, is still very damaging. Some kids play harder than others. If you compound the hitting, especially over the years where kids practice in pads with nutjob coaches every day, we could be looking at years of damage that don't manifest themselves until decades later. As part of the new CBA NFL teams practice less and less in pads with fewer contact drills during practice. So why do kids who are less developed go through more contact drills?

Kickoff coverage in the NFL happens at the end of one's football career. By that point the majority of damage is already done. Take the tackle out of football until age 13.
