Title: practice

I can see getting rid of 2 a days, if you believe that is the best way to reduce injuries.
But i would contend that granting 1 extra week of pre-season practice would also help.
I can remember practice getting sloppy on 2 days.But maybe if you add some time to get in shape,
resharpen technique and shake the rust off injuries might be limited too..

Agreed -- unfortunately, it sounds like the people who argued against changing the date won this time around. The big issue is that schools will have to pay to feed and house kids longer and that is definitely a huge hurdle.
