IIRC there's at least one neurologist on here, I'd like to see their take(s). My understanding is that these studies have so much selection bias that it's hard to know what to make of them, but it's possible that as the numbers pile up that's changing.

It's also worth noting that those guys didn't play today's game, football is a lot different now, even compared with the 90's.

LET ALONE THE PRACTICE PROTOCOLS AND PROHIBITIONS AT THE COLLEGE AND PRO LEVEL NOW THAT DIDN'T EXIST TO PROTECT US IN THE 70'S AND 80'S IF NOT EARLIER.  THE HORROR!
