    Well was watching a youtube story about a “58 year old man” who is now playing Division 3 College Football in NCAA? He plays for a school called “Lycoming College”? Not 100% sure where that is but think it’s somewhere in Pennsylvania maybe?

    What’s your thoughts on that? Do you think a man at the age of 58 years old really has any business playing College football with basically kids who are 3 times less than his age?? What say you?

    In Williamsport, home of Little League baseball.

    I say why not. I played hockey into my late 40s against kids half my age. If his body can take it, then live his dream. Unfortunately, we don't recover from injuries as well at that age, but good luck.
