Even High School football players are testing positive for CTE

Not buying it, we know who's behind this, just trying to further the u.s. into a bunch of pansies. The nonthinking will fall for anything though and even help with their agenda.

Montana won with Jerry Rice, John Taylor, Roger Craig, Dwight Clark, etc.

Who did Tom Brady do it with?

I wonder how many of these guys have CTE?

Rice, Montana, and Brady are probably fine. Craig, Taylor, and Clark maybe.

Marvin Harrison was a genius. Guy never let himself get hit. He did shoot someone, but didn't fight for the pointless extra yard to destroy his brain, and body.

I guess my Dad not wanting me to play football growing up, and pushing me towards soccer paid off. Oh wait, the alcohol he had no problem with destroyed my brain anyway.

I could have been a beast at LB, TE, or QB. Was good at soccer. Well, as a goalie really, or D, and won a lot, but that shit got old. I wanted to hit people, got booted for some slide tackles. Then quit for baseball, and that's all she wrote. No more running needed, and I suck holding anything to hit anything. Never got to play my two best sports really, and my brain is still shot.

Pretty sure soccer players on average receive more concussions than football players. Saw a report on OTL where young soccer goalies were getting lymphoma at a higher than normal rate, think it was in Washington. Theory is that the rubberized fields with toxic, recycled bits of tire were causing the cancer.

I think I have it

Couldn't find car in a 2 car parking lot...Finally found it...it was 1 of the 2

Funny we won't know if you have it until after you die though.

I know soccer players get CTE. Headers, and butting heads.

Then I think you're fckin with me. Especially the lymphoma thing, though I have swolled glands, and lymph nodes. I played on real grass anyway, like most do. Too much CTE to know if you're being sarcastic. I do remember a report on ESPN saying soccer players get CTE as well, though.

Though the HS field had that rubber shit. Got me worried here, Nino.

Google turf fields cancer and you will see a lot of states and the feds looking into the safety of tire material in fields.

Welp, that's no good. Spent 4+ years on a field like that constantly. They just built it too, right before I got there.
