No because injuries are usually the athlete’s fault. Unless the training that the college or professional league is providing is what’s causing the injuries, then they should not be responsible for the athlete’s injuries. It is the athlete’s responsibility to take care of themselves.

Can someone please help me write a poem against violence?
Ahat [919]

Answer:

its so..blurry  

vision too cloudy  

too still to feel pain

the un-registration of mothers death in my brain  

it hurts

deep in your chest  

while you watch the rest

horrifying screams

"please Kai, help me!"

the tears pour out

spilling over  

they hit the ground

so small..so silent , too quiet

yet each one contains a noisy river inside

gone are the illusions of peace

fading just like reality  

its all gray

no matter what you do  

paralyzed you cant move..

the purest white snow

stained red like the mid evening sunset  

still unsure of recent events

he clawed his way in...reaching the very depths of their skin

you saw...you watched

tearing apart the strings that held their very soul together

he pulled their life right out from under them

its all your fault

you never called for help

just listen to sound of their begging pleas

darkness instilled in me

i can feel it, smell it..blood all over my hands

it wont wash away

the memories haunting me

worse than an intellectual ghost

still i scrub my hands, my body, my soul

it stings, just leave me be

im sorry

im drowning

im sorry mom

im lost

im gone...

...sry its..long hehe

Why can't you bleach your eyes like your hair and skin?
Free_Kalibri [48]
Not sure if this is a literal question, but bleach is dangerous for the hair AND skin.

I’ve heard of people bleaching their hair and parts of their body, but not their whole skin.

As for the eyes, is bleach enters your eyes, you have a huge chance of losing eyes sight depending on how much, and how fast you washed it out.

Explanation:

In fact, cucumbers have skin-lightening and mild astringent properties, so you can use cucumber slices to fix raccoon eyes naturally. To try this method twice a day, chop a fresh cucumber into thick slices and then refrigerate for 30 minutes. Then, leave the slices on your eyes for 10 minutes.
