I brought this incident up to my son who plays football and is a junior this year.
His response: "everyone does 'bodies'. Sounds like someone turned 'bodies' into a fight"
Yes, I was shocked by that response.
No way! That's not what the in the know and totally not out of touch posters were saying earlier in this thread. Some of them have been coaching for 30 years, and another one personally knows guys that played HS ball as recent as the 80's! They didn't know what "bodies" was before the article (and honestly still don't) but that's not Important! These posters are the authority when it comes to young people and should be treated as such.
I know your son is about the same age as the kids in the article and plays the same sport as them...but his claim is pretty hard to believe. I'll stick with the experts on here. If they're unaware of it, it doesn't happen period.
