Color me very skeptical about this.

I'm not convinced there is something going on here.

If this were the problem they say it is, 96% of league players would be having serious problems. Are they?

While some testing can show signs of CTE in the living, so far researchers can only positively identify it during a postmortem.

It really bothers the Left that contact sports exist.

We should all wear helmets and padding when we go for a walk. /s

Maybe this is a pre-existing condition that somehow encourages the patient to play football.

It is very odd with high tech radiology testing and other presumed neuro tests it can’t be identified in the living. Sounds fishy to me. Would think by now they would do those tests pre autopsy for learning purposes at least.

You'd think all those expensive heads would have the very best helmets around them.
