This is really an incredible story. CTE is chronic traumatic encephalopathy, a brain injury that causes dementia and worse. A recent study of nearly 200 ex NFL football players who had contributed their brains (after death obviously) found that 90% of them had CTE. 90%!
Happy that none of my boys chose to play the game.
I still watch it. I'll admit that. But its getting harder and harder to enjoy it, knowing that every man on that field is risking his life.
