The only advice I have for you is to make up your mind before the season starts. If you decide not to play football and instead to find a job then no one (your coaches included) will have a problem with that. However if you put off the decision and get to the point where coaches and team mates are counting on you during the season then you put your self in a tough place, even if your heart is not in it people are counting on you.

The reason I ask is this:
Football is a very unique sport. You will never have this chance again, to play football in a full-contact, team setting. Never will you be able to run full speed at another guy, drive him back 10 feet, put him on his butt, and then offer your hand to him to pick him up. Never will you be able to grab a ball, lower your shoulder and run completely through another guy, knocking him down as people cheer. Football is a strange thing, where people do things (safely, for the most part) on a playing field while others would be jailed for these same actions.

That is where rugby fits in to my life.
My students want me to confirm if they're only allowed one submission per team? (Apparently they've gotten a sudden wave on linguistic inspiration...) - Siri [more]
