***10 points to first most helpful answer***I need help getting out of playing football
Explain to her the long-term effects (knee trouble, extensive surgery) if you wear down your knee to the point that it hurts really badly. I mean, you can run down the ligaments to the point that it's just your nerves being grated between two bare joints. Now that hurts.
Oh and ramble about how all this extra time can be used partially to extend your knowledge. Of course you won't use that much more of it, but you'll still get smarter and will have more time for projects and papers so that you don't come home from the big game the day before and think "OH CRAP! The paper!!"
keep telling the doctor your knee still hurts.
Sorry dude but your parents shouldn't force you to play.They should support your choice because it's you that will be physicaly hurting if you do blow out your knees.
Tell your doctor that you don't feel it's a good idea for you to continue playing sports and to explain it to your parents.
Best of luck !
say that your knee still hurts and its gotten harder for you to play. and say that you need to focus on ur grades, cuz you feel like they are suffering because of all the time you are putting into football.
_hope it works out_
If your knee is still hurting then you shouldn't play anyway, i tried it when i was a freshman, got tackled really hard in a game and had to get screws in my knee (long story). So tell your doctor about your knee pains because it could be more serious than you think. I doubt if he would recommend to your mom that you not play, especially if she is in the room during the examination, but there is a little hope on that. I think the only truthful way out of this is to just tell her you don't want to play football. And come up with a constructive way that you are going to use that time since you will not be practicing anymore.
well if u dont like a sport, ur mom should respect that, and u should play another sport, but u could always just finish the season
dude just tell ur mom after the injury u just had u want to take a year or 2 off!! by the time that time is over she will forget about u starting agin!
