[QUOTE="Northeast Stinger, post: 986464, member: 1640"] I’m no neuroscientist but I wonder how you compare the two since circumstances are slightly different. CTE involves repeated jarring impacts, which, in the case of football linemen, can happen multiple times in a game. In soccer, even a forward or a striker can go multiple games without even having a chance to head butt a ball. To be clear, I’m not saying head butting is benign, it’s clearly dangerous, but unless someone is daily practicing head butts, the frequency of impact is much less than with football. [/QUOTE]
