Two last quick thoughts... 1) Given what we know about the neurological problems that football causes, it seems a bit callous to be agitating for more football games.

Just saw the HBO specialist on the physician who examined CTE in Mike Webster and Terry Long (among others).  Fascinating.  Now I don't have to see the Will Smith movie.

But what I find curious...does it really surprise anyone?  If you've played high school football you know how damaging it can be.  I can't imagine it at the D1 and professional levels.
