      Michael, when it comes to football you need to stay in the kiddie pool.... The war on football is a byproduct of the war on "toxic" masculinity. I'm not sure what your area of expertise is but this ain't it. Thanks for engaging.https://twitter.com/mtracey/status/1165775537157136389 …

      If acknowledging the overwhelming scientific evidence that football causes severe brain damage is a "war on masculinity" in your eyes, your definition of "masculinity" is amazingly puerile. But I guess that's your "expertise"

          I’d be careful about ‘overwhelming’. The current data is is really limited by selection bias ( hard to have controls from normals when you need brain tissue), also 16% of folks with CTE don’t have a history of concussions .. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/m/pubmed/26260277/ …

          Personally, just a hunch that CTE is an underlying issue and football is being used as the scape goat. It's been found in 6% of the general population and even infants

          This is worthy of a deeper conversation. These footballers can’t make the connection. Money is key actor. Compare it to wrestling; same issues. But they get paid less as in wrestlers. I postulate this is a manifestation of Morden day slavery.

          No shit but at the end of the day the sport helps young men get out of situations they would never get out of without the game @TeddyAtlasReal could tell you about another sport that causes brain damage and has helped out a lot of young men

          Lots of people have shorter lifespans than football players. Every male who reads this would trade places with an NFL player in a heartbeat.

          If It's overwhelming, why doesn't it happen to every single player have it that's ever played?...life is risk, to one degree or another. Should we wrap kids in bubble until 21y/o?
