He should be allowed to play, but count as 300/135 = 2.3 players

So he is too fat for pee wee football, and is too big of a pussy to play in the junior high league....
and why does a 12 yo weigh 300 pounds?? who cares he is six feet tall that is too fucking fat....
Now he can sit on the sideline and think about if eating all those twinkies were worth giving up his pee wee football career for.

Saw that on another site a day or so ago - most of the commenters were adamant that as he was six-foot tall, he couldn't possibly be fat.

The article states that other oversize kids get to play. Is it the fact that he's 300 and not 150 or is there something else at work?

It was suggested and offered that he practice with the older kids in a more structured program. But if you listen to him speak, he is definitely 12. Just wants to play ball with his friends and thats all.

Good point. He's big, but not fat for a football player.

10-1 his mother is already dealing with high school (and college) recruiters on a regular basis. Hopefully he gets a chance to be a kid for a little longer.

I'm in my 7th year of Pop Warner w/my 12y.o. 108 lb. grandson, who plays on the line. The max weight at this level is 145 lbs. After about 10 years old, these kids have reached a level of skill and strength where they can hurt each other. We've had a couple of emergency room/ambulance ride experiences per year over the last couple of years. The ability to have the mass and force to cause damage is even more apparent with 12 & 13 year olds.

A kid this big could seriously hurt an opposing player. I'm sure that was explained to big momma, but she doesn't give a shit because her baby isn't being treated "fair".

he shouldn't be playing with the smaller kids. but the smaller kids perhaps shouldn't play when they get bigger.

the woman who studies athletes' brains:
She photographs every brain before autopsy and memorializes slivers of tissue in irrefutable portraits of disease that line the hallways of her lab. Exhibit A: a montage she created from sections of 27 damaged brains. . . "This is Eric Scoggins," she says. "This is Wally Hilgenberg. This is Mike Borich, a college player. We got it from the coroner, so it's not a complete section. This is John Grimsley. This is Dave Duerson. Up here we have Derek Boogaard, the hockey player."
. . .
To gaze upon McKee's montage is to see the unseen. Daniel Perl, professor of pathology/neuropathology at the Uniformed Services University in Bethesda, Maryland, who has known and worked with McKee for two decades, says: "I think she has completely changed the way we see the experience of playing football."
