Everyone who covers the sport has a responsibility to look out for athletes' health and well-being
I love college football. There's nothing like the spectacle of a college stadium on Saturdays -- the band playing, students looking for any excuse to go nuts, and a packed house roaring. My version of heaven is a College Football Saturday, every day.
But when I hear that distinct thud of pads and helmets colliding, I can't help but wince. I know that those players are sacrificing their livelihood down the road, even at the college level, giving up their bodies in exchange for four years of glory.
