Frightening

Studies on dead athletes brains show severe brain damage from concussions.

I hate to be a sissy about this, but after seeing the hit last week on Mcgahee and reading about all these awful injuries ex-NFL players have, there ought to be some serious analysis about the long term costs of NFL football careers.

I mean, these guys are essentially enduring car accidents every weekend. The average career is probably 4 years, does not yield enough money to support a family for the rest of your life, and almost definitely deteriorates your life expectancy.
