Football is under attack. At least that's the perception for some, especially as we learn more about the effects of concussions on players' long-term health. And Cardinals coach Bruce Arians is tired of hearing about it.

"People that say, 'I won't let my son play [football]' are fools," Arians told TheMMQB.com.

"We have this fear of concussion that is real, but not all of those statistics, I think, can prove anything," he continued, echoing comments made by several NFL owners earlier this week.

“No, that's absurd," Cowboys owner Jerry Jones told the Washington Post about the relationship between chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) and playing football. "There's no data that in any way creates a knowledge. There's no way that you could have made a comment that there is an association and some type of assertion. In most things, you have to back it up by studies. And in this particular case, we all know how medicine is. Medicine is evolving."

Texans owner Bob McNair added, "I think it's an important issue. I'm more concerned about the misconceptions people can have about it than I am about what's really taking place. We're studying this issue closely, more than anyone else. We've put up money for research before anyone else did. Our medical scientists still don't know what the cause of CTE is. It appears that if you've had multiple concussions from whatever you've been doing, riding a bicycle, skateboarding, it's not just football, that there's a possibility it could lead to CTE."

Meanwhile, Arians has nothing but good things to say about football.

"This is the greatest game in the world," he said. "I think it teaches more values than any other game that you play. You have things that happen in your life that aren't going to be good. If you play football, you know how to handle them. It doesn't necessarily equate in track and other things."

Last week, during a roundtable discussion on concussion research with the Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations, NFL senior VP for Health and Safety Policy Jeff Miller was asked if he thought there was a link between football and CTE.

“The answer to that question is certainly yes," he said.

It was the first time the league publicly acknowledged the link.

I think LoneWolf is pushing the envelope a bit too far. Giving the guy shit is one thing, going past that is another story. Let it be man.

Why can't you just let it go?? You don't believe the story who cares?? I don't care if you believe me. Going to try and find me on Facebook is too far. What were you going to do message my family or friends??

I just don't care enough about this site to deal with that shit.

Because wolf is a creepy prick. That's what they do.

I'm not suggesting it, but isn't that a bannable action?

Though admittedly not provable.

I am not trying to get anyone banned. I just don't want to deal with that shit. I am here to talk football and read what is going on in the world and Chiefsplanet is entertaining to me.

For me the best end to this is we just continue on like normal. I have no issue with him, in fact don't think we have even been in a discussion here. I didn't even recognize the name LoneWolf. I have no issue with someone calling me a liar, a bitch or whatever they want on here. I do have an issue with somebody attempting to find me to do whatever he planned on doing with my profile. If that was post stuff or message me or my family and friends

Just to clear up something, I never searched for any of this guys information outside of CP. I looked at his past posts because I apparently am the only one who read his original story before he deleted it and posted a different one. They didn't match and it sounded like bullshit so I looked at his past posting history.

I asked him a question about where he lived before because he referenced his high school in a past post and I wanted to see if he would lie to me. He did.

I have no intention of trying to look up any information outside of this site and I was basically just amusing myself by flipping him shit. I decided to really be an asshole when I found out that Brucey is a 49er fan who followed Alex Smith here.

I'm sorry if I creeped you out Brucey, but you don't need to worry about me posting any Facebook information on here. I don't even have a Facebook account so even if I had those intentions, which I don't, I couldn't see any of your information anyway.

Yes I did originally follow Alex here, I admitted it from the beginning. The thing about is that I wanted Kaep over Alex. I have never been a Alex nut-hugger. I am a member of several NFL teams messageboards. I have actually grown quite found of KC, my wife is actually a Chiefs fan. I am still not saying where I am originally from. If I made any lie about where I am from it is simply so you wouldnt post anything. I dont know you so I didnt know your intentions. I have seen what somebody did on here a while back.

\

Can I offer out my hand as a truce? Lets just leave it at you dont believe me & go on with our lives.

There's no reason for you to offer a truce. You didn't attack me in any way.

If I took things a little too far, I apologize.

I accept your apology, only part that I had an issue with was the fact it appeared you were trying to look me up in person.

Glad we can both be men here. I have respect for anybody that can apologize.

An old guy...defending his cash cow? Obviously Arians needs 3 or 4 more houses. Take his word as truth...he would never lie for his own benefit.

Dark forces...
