They include players who died as young as 23 and as old as 89. And they are from every position on the field. http://nyti.ms/2uuxZXX pic.twitter.com/axh7b9IMCJ
Football is injurious to health ?
Yeah, the constant impacts that the players suffer have an impact on the brain.
I do, but the fact of the matter is that it just keeps on continuing like this, for example the NFL won't just shut down tomorrow...
Never enough knowing that 99% get CTE at the end
Does the NFL even acknowledge that it's a problem, I wonder?
Who cares about the NFL? What about Pop Warner and HS teams? How many kids suffer brain injuries every year?
I agree! How many are told to just "shake it off?"
in our games any time a kid is suspected of one he has to leave game....
That's too late
And you've probably read the literature. This is an accumulation of many many hits that don't show symptoms or signs.
Colleges need to pay athletes or discontinue the sport. How many catch it playing in the #NCAA
Would you consider a paid scholarship payment?
Hell naw! These people are making BILLIONS & millions! Video games, jersey sales, sponsors, sold out games with over $90k People watching!
They probably make even more money on the college level on these players. I'm almost sure the college make more. And these kids are dying.
I'm not trying to be callous but that's their choice. They should make sure they're getting an education while they can.
Knowingly endangering other people's lives is always wrong and more often than not it's illegal. So. No excuses are valid here.
Good point but this didn't just start. Most athletes starting played sports as small children. It didn't all of a sudden become dangerous.
They are just finding out how dangerous it actually is!
