CTE doctor is a fraud..
This should piss off Will Smith a bit since he played the guy...
https://www.washingtonpost.com/graph...rce=reddit.com The medical community apparently thinks this guy is a whack job. |

Not surprised in the least especially since it is also being pushed politically in order to eliminate football altogether in our society and make lawyers richer by one particular side. I won't mention the side since that would be too political in this forum. Can brain damage occur from football ? Of course it can BUT I don't believe it is as rampant as this phony Dr. and colleagues say it is and never have believed all the hype over this condition
NFL lawyers glad to hear this and will definitely be jumping all over this to lessen these lawsuits if not start eliminating a lot of these frivolous ones for sure. |

"There is no reliable technology to detect CTE in the living; the disease can be diagnosed only after someone dies and their brain can be dissected and analyzed."
NFL lawyers will be jumping all over the above statement. Players know what they are signing up for. Sign the waiver or don't play. |

I think CTE is real. Traumatic brain injuries and even repetitive minor brain trauma has to have negative consequences, logically. But there has been a lot of hysteria around this subject.
Also, you can't blame every single bizarre thing that football players do (Antonio Brown, suicides, murders, domestic violence, etc) on CTE and football. That type of stuff happens all the time in the world at large, with populations that have never been exposed to football or brain trauma. |

Regarding shrinks statement, why though? This is not something secret anymore. I feel for the players much more before 2000 because they legitimately did not know about this. If you play now and are coming into the league. You know the risks, and you can properly weigh them.
Nobody is making you play. I'll still feel bad when they get CTE late in life, but it's a known risk.
