Tag is banned

<< < (2/8) > >>

Ken Layton:
Tag, dodgeball, what's next? Free thinking?

I played all those when I was a kid in school in the early 1960's.

Seriously, the principal at that school that banned tag should be immediately fired.

ChadTower:

The only defense they've come up with is "too many kids running around on a small paved area".

Uh, yeah... that's a pretty good way to describe life.

Vigo:
My guess is that Jump-rope is the next to go, they can be used as a weapon... I'm glad my days on the playground ended before everyone turned into wussies

Amen to that.  I think back to 5th and 6th grade - after school tackle football.  No idiotic safety rules, just kids having fun.  Granted we did have our share of injuries (bloody noses, sprained ankles, broken bones) but that is part of growing up and experiencing things.

NightGod:
I miss playing tackle football on the playground after school-nothing like a full-speed tackle to stop a runaway touchdown. I don't remember us ever ending up with anything more serious than the occasionaly sprain or bloody nose, but we sure had a hell of alot of fun.
