What is it with all the people making comments that are trying to tie this into things that have nothing to do with football or with concussions? All of you idiots bringing politics into this, or the economy into this... this story has nothing to do with those things! Instead, why don''t you actually use your brain and make relevant comments. What a concept!!

Somebody needs to do a study on what''s inside the heads of the Wall Street bankers -

I''d really like to know what makes them so freaking greedy that they would wreck the US economy. Their greed is sick and now the whole country is sick, too.

Wish they could do a follow-up on participants of high school sports. How many beer guzzling, middle aged cripples got that way because they were led to believe they had a future as a "Pro" by the local high school sports coach years earlier.

You know the coach-the home town hero/father figure that encourages adolescents to be "team players" and "give it all for the team".

Absolutely nothing wrong with this study,football is a brutal,unforgiving game as is boxing, studies like this are necessary for insight into ways to deal with concussions or brain injuries, maybe it could be adapted for everyone.
