(5) Make no mistake—there is evidence that concussions caused by head injuries are on the increase. (6)The creation of more regulations to govern conduct on the field is not the best solution. (7)Experience has shown that players are willing to risk being fined if a prohibited action will enable them to successfully complete a play. (8), referees can find reasons to avoid making judgment calls to enforce the rules.
