Football Causes CTE, People: Learn It, Live It, Deal With It...

(Thanks to my ex-football fan and anonymous still-friend for this one...)

ABC News has some sobering reality for Football Nation America tonight...

Boston University obtained the brains of 202 deceased former football players to do a study on the effects of the sport on the human brain, as it relates to the disease CTE...

Only 26 had no signs of the disease, and 11 of those had only played high-school football.

Two of the most disturbing revelations from the study:
  • Of the 14 brains of high school football players that went no further, three still had CTE.
  • Of the 111 former professional players, ONLY ONE DID NOT HAVE CTE.
And yet the study tries to walk back on it's claims, by stating that all of the provided brains were from families who wanted answers...

THE GAME CAUSES BRAIN DAMAGE.

LEARN IT, LIVE WITH IT, DEAL WITH IT....
