Reference Dead athletes' brains show damage from concussions

It appears to me that athletes includes football players and possibly professional wrestlers.
 
Concerning football players, Duh! what do the players expect? They use their helmets as weapons in their attempt to injure the opponent and they end up with brain damage. Are we suppose to care or be interested? As long as the rules permit, nay encourage, helmet to helmet contact, helmet to chest contact players will continue to suffer. But the good news is they are well paid. First contact with the helmet used to be called spearing with a penalty. Rules should not permit any contact with the helmet. Change the process for tackling, it can be done. Until then que, cera, cera.
