I often refer back to a comment someone made on SoSH: Football is like stripping; I like watching it but I wouldn't want my kid to do it.
I have to believe that middle- and upper-class parents are less and less likely to let their kids risk scrambling their brains and compromising their future. So the labour pool is going to come from those who feel there isn't much of a gamble anyway. And, hey, economic disparity will be creating more of those families anyway. But what happens when someone successfully sues a school over their kid becoming fucked up? The costs of operating a football program is going to become more expensive, which will further shrink the labour pool (and with it a generation used to watching football, too). That's how the sport dies.
