After seeing Tua from the Dolphins go down this week after the last week head injury. have him been cleared was crazy and so difficult to watch and really opened my eyes how dangerous this game is. probably so many injuries that are causing CTE the cameras dont see or cut away. only because Tuas a QB is why they had no choice but to display it.
@@Biobele And soccer players. Any activity where the brain is contacting the inside of the skull, like with a header in soccer, cause potential harm to the brain.
I played center and linebacker for over a decade. Now I can’t remember things and I’m clinical diagnosed with depression and anxiety. I know it’s going to get worse. I put my body on the line to win. It sucks now, but it was worth it. I love football.
It's incurable & absolutely tortuous. We have to be VERY careful not to label people--especially young people--with this disease unless they definitely have it. Once diagnosed, there is no hope.
I used to wonder that tgese huys have tge most beautiful wives, buggest houses, best cars etc but still get depressed, commit suicide, have their wives divorce them etc I mean most women love money add fame to that and a well built physucally active husband or boy friend yet they end up dicorcing, throwing it all away etc Now we know why most celeb marriages fail, why they get fat, depressed, violent and all that. I'm happy I didn't go on with my dream of becoming a boxer I used to have this fantasy that I'd evade all dangerous hits but even the best boxers, MMA fighters etc get there brains shaken very very violently from other equally talented or skilled opponents I have 2 degrees in law I'm going for an MBA and hopefully another masters or PhD after that at the same time I'll like to go into business and philanthropy so looking back at it all it was God saving me from a life full of money but short and miserable. I was still going to make one final push until I saw all Dr. Omalu had to say. I'd prefer a peaceful life to that sickness esp. Because all my NFL/boxing salary can't buy back my good health not from CTE
Parents shouldn't let their child play contact sports like football b/c they don't have the right to throw caution to the wind with their child's health. If you are 18+ yrs old then follow yr own guidance but remember that if you develop this disease it will seriously negatively affect yr loved ones. We should stop supporting these sporting activities so as to place people above profit. A mind is truly a terrible thing to waste indeed. Let's all be scientific and deny the temptation of instant gratification and teach our children to think logically.
So sad. I find it incredibly insane that even with evidence that this isn't humane and logical to continue to do these Sports, people will continue regardless because they're not ready for the truth. As usual this is disturbing. I wonder how many parents will sign their children up to do these Sports now. Knowing what they know?
was a nod to Gupta's utter lack of integrity as a sell-out government hack. the basis for my unconventional conclusion, unfortunately, can't be explained away without providing a lengthy back story. not a dodge, but that would take a few days short of forever to properly explain. thanks for the question!
