I know I can’t be the only one (along with the reporter) who shed tears at King Carter’s story. But you know what struck me as crazy throughout that? The dad didn’t tear up remembering/retelling it. Not because he didn’t want to, he’s just seen it too many times and being strong for his and his girl’s sake. God please help my help my people and also help them to help themselves. Damn broke my heart.
You probably dont give a shit but does anyone know of a trick to log back into an instagram account..? I somehow lost the login password. I appreciate any tricks you can offer me!
The amount of talent in the state of Florida is unbelievable. I sometimes imagine if there were only one university in Florida. Imagine if schools could only recruit in their state. Florida would be a powerhouse.
This could really be a 2 hour documentary. The football in Miami is like the gladiator games of ancient Rome. It is a distraction and amusement for a society that has lost it's way and is on the brink of the fall of an empire. It has embraced Bloodsport, believing that it is an extension of their own power. Inner-city Miami is a Trap game. "...Football, Music or something illegal" That is a true reality there. These football games are an outlet for youth, but as the game goes on, gansters, pimps and drug dealers are exchanging bets on the sidelines like it's a Mexican Gallo fight. These youth that don't make it to Florida State or the U end up in that Trap game. Hand to hands under street ligts, lookouts on porches and balconies and passengers in cars with pistols. The average NFL playing career is 3 1/2 years, and the average drug sentence in the Florida State Penitentiary is 3 years. Statistically speaking, Florida has the 3rd largest prison system in the U.S. and an 18 or 19 year old black male there is 9x more likely to be incarcerated than his white counterpart. That is alarming for any people/society and arguous for any place to endure. These are a remarkable people that try to survive there and football is an extension of that desire to be successful. But that dream is failing...
Accept Jesus Christ as lord and savior follow Jesus with all your heart keep his commandments change your desires and put God first spread the word Of God
I grew up in Fort Lauderdale and began playing football as a peewee in 1998. Our team was good, but they would bus us down to scrimmage in liberty city whenever we got cocky, and they would beat the everliving shit out of us. I'm glad our coach bussed us down there to learn that there are people far more hungry than us. Far more aggressive than us. It was a very teachable moment.
This rival goes back to the early 90's... I really miss those days but I was a Gwen Cherry bull tho... Oh yeah Northwest Boys Club Falcons was a big rival too...
In my opinion, the best documentary that Vice has ever made. Truly wonderful. I wish these kids and the future generations from the neighborhood the best.
Miami is scary at pop Warner. I used to play for one of the better teams in the Jacksonville Area. When we got upset in our conference championship our coach Scheduled an exhibition game against a middle of the pack team from the Miami area( I can’t remember their name) and we were slaughtered
I am American living in Brazil , coaching football . I am trying to do the same here and eventually connected back to the inner cities of the US , to show our young kings that the world is much bigger than a stoop or a street corner . We enrich our youth m we enrich our future ,
VICE, as a big fan of this series I hope to god you put your time into Rugby and the importance of it in the pacific islands. These small countries live off of almost nothing and yet breed one of the most ruthless athletes. Growing up in Samoa and having visited other countries like Tonga, Fiji and New Zealand (where rugby is certainly religion), I've witnessed and played against many young men that have outstanding backstories much similar to this. If you could do an episode in the Pacific Islands that would be much appreciated. Rugby is the only ticket out to most islanders and its something I think should be noticed on this channel considering the high quality its made in. Rugby is one heck of a contact sport and I'd love to see what you guys can give the audience.
Growing up as a kid, I was a 'Canes fan like many back then. Simply, they were the most dominant college team of that era and played with so much swagger. So much of their talent comes from their own backyards (in state) that I believe Miami and FL, in general, has sent more players to the pros than any other school/state. Til this day, I think that's still the case...just incredible. Side note - first guy they interviewed was Luther Campbell aka Uncle Luke aka Luke Skywalker from 2 Live Crew. A Miami icon that has a long history with the school and football in FL. He was a big supporter of athletics such as football as an outlet away from a bad life. Was supporting it then back in the 80's and it's cool to see him still doing it. Shows that the man cares about his community.
1. in 2017 47% of NFL players came from Miami. 1b. the Florida State championship is between the feeder high schools from this program 1c. Miami City Commissioners and they Oscar winning Moonlight director, musicians, etc etc played in this league. 2.by High School all have the skills to be drafted to the nation's Colleges & Universities. 3. Who did not make it out. go back as coaches to these children 4. As you can see , even the 4 year olds are wearing "custom uniforms" which they will grow out in few months. THE PROGRAM HAS DEEP POCKETS (see #1) but it shows you some people are just fixed in their mentality no matter what evidence is given.
To all the people saying that they glamorize the thug life, so do the privileged kids in the suburbs. Its a reality for these kids out in the hood. Kids in the suburbs think its the coolest thing and glamorize it. Look at your average privileged suburban kid and see how he acts without having any connection to the hood.
These men are good mentors, at least on the surface. If they are genuine then the impact they will make even on the kids who don’t play pro will change their life
Youth sports can be a wonderful complement to a child's development. The teamwork, physical fitness, and dedication that is required to be successful at sports all have great value as kids grow older. That being said, the odds of a kid getting a full-ride D1 scholarship are quite minute, and the odds of a kid eventually having a successful NFL career are nearly non-existent. With a focus on study and education, however, the odds of kids improving their lives are far more realistic and attainable. Putting aside the numerous potential pitfalls of serious youth football, it is my hope that these young people will translate their passion for the sport into their education. If they are good enough, they might make the NFL, which would be of course be awesome. If they aren't good enough at football, however, perhaps they can achieve a good living in another career via their educational prowess. They can strive to live in a safer area, and their kids can enjoy those fruits; this more realistic aspiration met is a documentary I would also love to see.
You have been brainwashed by the money-seeking fake CTE scientist nonsense. Millions of American men played football all their youth and high school lives. And all of them are perfectly healthy.
A plot To stop many communities from progressing Through Multicultural diversities..... Youth football is the largest sport to bring many divers cultures together . of course those Fake statistics is gonna come out. Any way to divide and conquer!!!!
@@damellman CTE is a real thing. Read the studies. At the same time, it is understandable why some parents in poverty-stricken areas are willing to take the risk with their children: The potential benefits are so massive. So, CTE is a concern, but what is even more worrying to me is the idea that kids either get a football scholarship or end up dealing drugs. Education is the answer, and football should be peripheral to study...not the other way around. Considering the low probability of a kid ending up as a scholarship athlete (not to mention a professional one), ensuring they are academically prepared is the safer bet for their future.
@@jeffvanderwerf3561 so you're saying, Only poverty stricken areas are Are willing to take a risk with their children.. 🙄 Or are you saying cte is restricted just football...🙄 or Are you saying Footballs an Alternative to education 🤫... 1...b Cause last time I Checked they are called student athletes...Who are Ironically the most successful students in colleges and schools ... 2 football is an American sport which is played in every Social economic Class ... 3 . Most physical sports are subjected To the risk of CTE.. Basketball, Baseball, lacrosse, hockey ect. and especially the world's favorite game soccer... however. What you probably fail to understand is that education education in sports injuries has evolved.. Therefore techniques and protection and injury preventionIs more prevalent today.. Rules , And protocols in football have been changed to protect all who participated in the sport.... Therefore dramatic brain injuries Is occurred less since we are more educated.... You're arguments just bias especially when you say something about primarily stricken areas
Crellin I was going to comment the same. Also with the #Boom on their uniform. Why can't they see there is some serious dichotomy there? That click clack boom chant, WTF.
the name boom squad i didnt really mind but i agree them doing a "click clack boom" chant seems like it might symbolize a gun shot and is prob not the best chant when being affected by gun violence...its sucks a kid had to lose his life over nothing...RIP
"click clack" refers to the sound that football cleats make when you walk on a hard surface like walking out of a locker room. I don't think they meant it to symbolize a gun shot. Under Armour had a few commercials several years back referring to it.
Ulices Lopez they really thought these young boys were glorifying gunplay with that. People always gonna think a certain way about what they don't understand.
I have lived in America for a couple years and I haven’t seen any youth football in DC. Back in France I played rugby, and I thought there would be more football here, like on TV.
I can't believe parents would still risk child's health and brain by allowing them to play football at such a young age. Your child's brain is still so young and developing.
The show Lebron made about these lil dudes is legendary and went so much deeper . You can’t sum up there lives in just one vice episode foreal . Good video though.
I know I can’t be the only one (along with the reporter) who shed tears at King Carter’s story. But you know what struck me as crazy throughout that? The dad didn’t tear up remembering/retelling it.

Thats crazy RIP King Carter

Are you a writer? Dang lool
DK Switzs This piece just kind of struck a chord with me.
This is a shortened version of an hour doc that was on Viceland last year.
mdhugh2 Oh, good to know. I'll look that one up. Thanks.
why is this so deep lol
Shout out to Devonta, he's a really good RB.
Slim Charles GO FALCONS
D.J. Sparks yea one of my favorite players plays for them matt Ryan he played for the Boston College Eagles
Just imagine if every South Florida player stayed and played for Miami. The thought alone is frightening.
Yo who cutting onions?
Miguel Vera my bad
I fell so bad for king cater
I think these kids could beat the Browns.... sorry Cleveland
Jason Nunes if the browns had their own clone-team as their opponent, they would lose.
Accept Jesus Christ as lord and savior follow Jesus with all your heart keep his commandments change your desires and put God first spread the word Of God
You right there boooooo
@@War-outside I butt fucked Jesus until he prolapsed

South Fl as a whole runs this whole youth and high school football scene
Would love to see them play the youth teams out of Texas! Maybe Netflix can make another series on this!
Miami murders those kids in Texas ....🤫
Go to Alabama or even Mississippi they're as serious as Texas Mississippi Wolf pack look em up
@@BLKSHARK_43 I definitely will. Thank you for the info.
This rival goes back to the early 90's... I really miss those days but I was a Gwen Cherry bull tho... Oh yeah Northwest Boys Club Falcons was a big rival too...
I played at the Northwest Boys Club in the 80's ourmain rival was the Southwest Boys Club. Also Gwen Cherry STOLE our colors and mascot.
The 80s, the field was taken. It was a battle in highschool
ViCE!!! This is one of your best, yet!!!
In my opinion, the best documentary that Vice has ever made. Truly wonderful. I wish these kids and the future generations from the neighborhood the best.
Played Gwen cherry bulls in the play-offs when I was a jitt.. we got shutout 27-0. Miami football ain’t no joke
The Miami Hurricanes were on top when they recruited Miami/Florida. If they go back to that they'll run shit again
Nona Yabuisness if Bama,FSU,Uga, and the rest of em stop dropping bags 💰💰
Jimmy Johnson
Very very true.
NovaCane Nevin Shapiro! That’s all I have to say!
Huh?!? They still recruit Miami, they just don’t get the cream of the crop and won’t anytime soon!
Miami is scary at pop Warner. I used to play for one of the better teams in the Jacksonville Area. When we got upset in our conference championship our coach Scheduled an exhibition game against a middle of the pack team from the Miami area( I can’t remember their name) and we were slaughtered
Ben the QB what color was the team
I am American living in Brazil , coaching football . I am trying to do the same here and eventually connected back to the inner cities of the US , to show our young kings that the world is much bigger than a stoop or a street corner . We enrich our youth m we enrich our future ,
Yet another incredible piece VICE Sports. SO well done. Thanks very much for producing and posting.
Man poor kid!!! Respect to his family and rip little man from the uk
They’re so good because they can play all year round in that Florida weather
GRAZE not really lots of rain hurricanes, tropical storms when it gets to a certain point of the year
ThePeruvianDawg just gotta wake up early and beat the storms
U can all year round in da whole south... we good cause we eat sleep n breathe football n we struggle different

the King Carter part gave me chills all over my body
RIP King Carter, so damn sad and the only interesting part of this. Rest of it was like Friday Night Tykes if it sucked.
Is that uncle Luke ?
Joshua Reid yup
THE one and only
Joshua Reid yep

"Who got my back?!"
"We got yo back!!!"
That sent shivers to me that was breathtaking 💯💯
Amazing the desperation for the families to escape their situation to utilise their children’s future. All strength to you.
It’s crazy cause everybody from miami done touched that field now they dead or in jail
1. in 2017 47% of NFL players came from Miami.

The receiver with the most receiving yards in Bengals history Chad Ochocinco Johnson ... lol
That Uncle Luke?
NBA Listings yes
Hands down, best Vice story in a while.
Probably the best vice video I’ve seen, my mom gotta stop cutting onions smh
love these short docs
Florida got the best sports hands down. Simple.
Football no doubt but the other sports are debatable.
Brian George lacrosse? Nah.
We can beat we already did
Tornadoes
You trippin. When it comes to football, Texas is the boss.

Losing a young child must be the worst pain in the world. Especially like that, out of nowhere.
The best material ever ! Go!

Miami is rough. As a Miami native, it would take a year to list all the children who were shot down in the ghetto of Miami.
That awkward time in childhood when the cheerleaders are taller then the football players.
God rest that little young king .
Rest in peace King Carter🙏
If you didn't shed at least a little tear hearing kings story your not normal RIP little buddy
Just a baby absolutely tragic. My prayers to the family 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Should have made this longer!!
Wow R.I.P King Carter🙏🏾
There is so much more!!
I have lived in America for a couple years and I haven’t seen any youth football in DC. Back in France I played rugby, and I thought there would be more football here, like on TV.
RIP King! Friday Night Tykes on Netflix is a good show about youth football too.
a parent should never have to bury their child
That one kid threw further than I can
shoutout to the reporter for being real . made me tear up n what not lol
I've liked ViCE since the days of VBS.
I can't believe parents would still risk child's health and brain by allowing them to play football at such a young age. Your child's brain is still so young and developing.
I played for both rivalry parks
Just might review this for my youtube channel 🩸🔥
I got tears I really feel this
Is this show on netflix?
Rip King, and G-Baby
Miami is most definitely the mecca but if you live Fla this is just about any city in the state.
It should be illegal for kids this young to play contact football. These kids are gonna get CTE, guaranteed.
10:12 so the camera is focused on the kid running the ball, but no one is going to talk about the kid laying the wood behind him?
RIP King Carter 😭😭😢
The show Lebron made about these lil dudes is legendary and went so much deeper . You can’t sum up there lives in just one vice episode foreal . Good video though.
I love my CITY
