    “Win at any cost” is the mantra of all professional head coaches and club owners. Players are simply well bred horses (or choose your animal) that are run until they can’t run no more.
    But with that said, players go in with their eyes wide open.

      I think the physical damage was always a given. The brain damage though ... players couldn't have known their helmets didn't protect them. These days players can make an informed decision about whether to risk it, but before all this came out? Nah.

      @@flyingcapsicum I agree. I don't think most people if anybody was aware of CTE until Mike Webster and Dr. Amalou. It was always a physically brutal sport and that was bad enough. You add it the brain injuries and it's too much in my opinion. Definitely not worth playing it. Just my opinion.

    The only way to get rid of cte in football is not to play it. The league that prints money, moves teams like checker pieces, and skims the top of the cancer fund needs to be exposed. I only played in high school but I bet I got it at 61. Rip Kenny you should have been inducted into the hof way before you passed.

    Stabler who won championships in high school and college plus pro football sort of Triple Crown of accomplishments. A man who said Give me the ball and I'll get your championship.

    Well. If you go back to the 1970's, there was no concussion protocols. That probably would have taken 10 years off of Tom Brady's career because he is a big baby and the NFL protects him. If he played in the 1970's, he would have been a dead man. Just look at Jack Tatum's hit on Sammy White in Super Bowl 11. That didn't even draw a penalty. Just think about the abuse the quarterbacks took back then.....

    Playing football is a choice.Harsh but true.Those guys make a lot of money and that is why they risk their long term health.Many other occupations have their own rick factors(I am thinking construction,medicine,law enforcement) for far less pay and no one seems to be concerned about those people.

      @bigpapasmurfz5352 5 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      None of "those people" get smashed in the head thousands of times during their careers.
      No one is pitying these men.
      But, it is not fair that the medical professionals assigned to them, just ignored the pain these men went through.
      It was just, here's your 'medicinal' shot and get back out there.
      "Doc, is this thing your giving me, safe for me?"
      -----"Why of course." he says as he sticks poison in their body for the umpteenth time.
      DISGUSTING AND CRIMINAL.

    You can’t stop nfl from playing contact sport. It’s pure CTE potential just as much as soldiers from war. NFL will only be a flag football. That’s 100% stop to CTE.

    Even before cte was discovered a football player knows after the collision to his head which causes a blackout in your brain that somethings gotta give with the frequency it’s happening to him. He is used to the violence but didn’t really know the seriousness and consequence as it is a progressive disease usually showing no immediate symptoms. If you take that element of hitting out of the game of football it would cease to exist. The nfl needs to put the ball back on the 20 yard line for kickoffs if real football is to be played the way it was supposed to and all 11 players including your qb should be treated equally on the field with no special treatment to one guy or you really don’t have a true championship team in the end and that was the beauty of the game you just can’t change that. Don’t play anymore no one is forcing you to. Real football already disappeared actually.
