Yep. My wife has actually tried to engage me in conversation about this since seeing the previews and how tragic it is blah blah blah.
I'm like when you sign up to play football you are told day one the risks, and you sign the paperwork and accept the risks. Heck inside the helmet at least back when I played they had a sticker that said "Football may kill and/or maim you, so don't be a Darwin Award Winner and spear someone with this helmet unless you want to drink Campbell's Soup through a straw for the rest of your life."
Nobody is forcing you to be out there. Unless some of you jack wagons are overbearing fathers trying to live vicariously through their sons......

^fricking this
I can't even begin to remember all the times I heard a coach say, "This isn't a contact sport, it's a violent collision sport". If proper tackling is taught this issue starts to go away.
Does Rugby seem to have this issue? Nope.
