More evidence of the sissification of America - Not it! Mass. elementary school bans tag... No more tag, or touch football...good grief.
My childhood days of smear the queer (I know that is not a PC name for a game - but we made no reference to anyone's sexuality - it was just tackle to the dude with the ball) and tackle football are long gone for these kids.
Toughen up your boys - we might need them some day to be able to do much more than "tag"

Wow, anything went on the playground when I was a kid. It had to devolve into an out-and-out fight before a teacher would get involved.

Hey Reid:
I found this gold mind. It is a bunch of talks about Chesterton that are actually shows aired on EWTN. They're fabulous and happy listening.
