A lot of players have played 10 plus years of football before they even get to the NFL. Awareness is growing but why does the NFL get all the blame? I guess only concussions that happen in the NFL cause CTE.

I'm sure his brain did show signs of damage from concussions. It bounced off the parking lot pretty hard. That was bound to cause damage.

Probably a pretty good chance you would if you worked a jackhammer for years. The difference is that your foreman didn't have evidence that proved such work was dangerous while sitting on it and hiring a panel of doctors to mount a PR campaign for nearly two decades saying that it wasn't.

There is evidence that Lou Gehrig s disease was caused by concussions. The proteins from the concussion got into his spinal fluid.
I never played football past high school, took a couple of fastballs to the head in youth baseball. I had an MRI done on my head a couple of years agao. You could see some old injuries on there. Nothing serious but I could see someone playing Div. 1 football and a couple of years in the NFL could have a lot more serious problems.

Yeah man. They've analyzed the brains of a LOT of people. There is a huge difference in the brain tissue of CTE suffers and those without.
