This isn't really a review, but bear with me…Apparently, little kids in Attleboro MA. can't play tag anymore. Apparently a lot of kids in a lot of states can't play games like touch football, tag, and other games of physical exertion because of the liability of parents suing for physical injury. Oh, and apparently these games do a number on kids' self-esteem. Great, so let's just make them sit on their hands; maybe get 'em to play a little more Nintendo, and effectively promote the sedentary lifestyle our little ones live these days. I bet that will really jack up self -images. Oh, and keep rollin' those "5 a day" commercials, because it seems one just needs to eat fruit to be healthy, not exercise…right.
