[QUOTE="Philhutch80, post: 310751, member: 3093"] [USER=1428]@Milwaukee[/USER], That is pure ignorance right there. My father passed away as a result of early on set dimensia as a result of CTE (testing was done post mortem which came up positive). He played football as his sport and the doctors said it was a direct result of this. I will say CTE does occur in many other sports such as auto racing and is now even showing up in soccer players but it is nowhere as prevalent as in American Football. Until you watch someone degrade in front of your eyes for five years as a result of these things I would say you have NOTHING to base your opinion off of and should probably remember that children should be seen and not heard. Yes there is emotion there but at the same time I had time to study up on how these things tie in together and also have been priveledged to work with Dr. Omalu via my coach. Mythbusters would often use g-force discs to represent lethal/fatal actions to the human body. Remember how it's not the fall that kills you but the sudden stop? Same principles apply with football. Dig your post and I will be interested to see if the former players respond. Cannot thank them enough for doing what they do! [/QUOTE]
