I have said numerous times check their bank accounts, most that have done it were about to lose everything or their wives/kids in divorce.

All this concussion BS is about the billion dollar NFL industry and how former financially irresponsible NFL players can recoup some of their financial mistakes through ambulance chasers now. |

Ed McCaffrey faked a lot of injuries. Maybe they finally pulled those out of the data.

One thing I wondered about the correlation between tackle football and concussions was what effect alcohol and recreational drugs had on players who were eventually found to have CTE.

I am really surprised that this hasn't gotten more comments. I thought this would be a very good discussion. I guess I was wrong.

The sample population of this study was not limited to players with known concussion issues so it's not really relevant to that discussion and it is not a study about how concussions are related to suicide. |
