        It says "Rate" So if it's 1 in 10 from Ny And 2 in 10 in fla the fact FLA has more recruits is irrelevant

        More recruits from that area = more injuries. How does this pass for "journalism" these days?

        Which parts have the highest recruiting rates though? Is it the south? I honestly don't know, not shooting for sarcasm here as much as hoping someone has a magical answer of sorts.
