The vast majority of players don't have trauma this bad. 30,000 people a year die in car accidents but everyone's still fine driving.
I also think that our understanding of CTE is going to change dramatically once it can be diagnosed before death.
Fatalities in cars are a side effect not a design feature. For a number of positions in football, repetitive head trauma is part and parcel to the game. Either that has to be eliminated or the sport will be. Will you let stupac jr be the test case for medical advancements in brain trauma? I sure as h$ck wouldn't let my kid be.
