I'm pretty sure that Frontline re-aired the original report this week. Did they provide an update?
Last week Colin Cowherd said someone he knows in New Jersey told him one area youth football program couldn't find enough kids to form a league this year. He was quick to point out that football is actually responsible for fewer concussions than other sports, but that football has lost the narrative and it is starting to show in the form of fewer kids playing the sport.
Soccer, which IIRC Cowherd said has as many concussions, is growing and football is shrinking because the NFL and NCAA has done such a poor job handling them. The images of the Michigan QB this week going back in the game after being knocked out, are exactly the kinds of things the dolts in charge of the game do that give the sport such a bad reputation these days.
