on second thought, the ski gloves are probably contaminated after coming in contact with road salt, school buses/cars which undoubtably have oil or gas residue, and have been chewed on by household pets.....
on third thought, let's play the games in EPA certified, hermitcally-sealed hazmat suits that contain 100% oxygen systems...we certainly don't want Dustin Hoffman and Renee Russo showing up at a high school game in Burlington, VT. in order to administer E-1101 anti-syrum to eradicate the Ebola virus....
OR... maybe we can just let the kids use mouthguards without all of the superflous rules....c'mon...where are the "less government intervention people"? I'm sure the old guy who said last year "keep your government hands off my Medicare" can be convince to shout "keep you government hands off my gradnsons' mouthpiece"...whaddaya think?
OK... my rant is over and I can now officially start my weekend!

I don't know about Ebola, but you might want to think about hepatitis A and B, not to mention whatever that kid I saw last night might contract from constantly taking his mouthguard out and then chewing on one end, then putting it in again. Oh, and there is always the possibility of someone slipping on that slobbery rubber thing on the floor - before he puts it back in his mouth. Yeah, lets just worry about some blood on a uniform.
