American Football - Stop the slaughter

Jesus fucking Christ.

:joy: it’s a piss take, right???

If there are 200 million priests in the world, and, say, 5% of them are paedophiles, that’s still only 10 million.

It’s junk science m8

What is?

Most troubling part is the younger players developing it. No one’s going to want to be the guy/gal who killed football though.

You don’t see woodpeckers taking their ball and going home just cos they take a few bangs.

Was it @gilgamboa that tried to say that a concussion isn’t brain damage?

Concussion is a brain injury, brain damage is a different diagnosis thst may or may not result from a brain injury.

So when you injure something you haven’t damaged it?

Brain damage is a term used to describe a significant long term issue.

If I banged my knee on the table and cut it I would consider that a knee injury and not knee damage.

Go away and educate yourself now pal before you start windmilling again. Good day sir

So youre comparing a concussion to a bang on the knee?

the person who made that meme obviously afflicted with some brain disease too. “are jobs”. FFS.

hard to know if this will change anything though. The only thing it will really do I think is expose the risks involved more scientifically. Players always knew there were risks, now it is being a lot more clearly identified.

I was more interested in the spelling and grammar mate,
Is it a pisstake?

Jim McGuinness?

Thanks for bringing that to our attention Tim. That’s a terrifying chart. A huge slice of the pie for concussions during an NFL game considering the tiny % of people that play NFL vs don’t play NFL.

Eh Jim McGuinness saved football mate. He brought the long ball game back.

I wonder are these head injuries counted?
