Welcome to steemit! I was a college OT who quit early for my health & have studied the impact of brain trauma for many years since. Make sure you educate yourself about protecting your brain health as much as possible. The NFL has been covering up real research for many decades & still are. I’d rather read what you have to write then see you bang heads!
This is exactly why i consume medical marijuana without it my brain does without it my without it my brain does not operate properly ie fog and pain probably from the five years of head hits I took as an offensive tackle I Can Only Imagine you took many head hits
Me too! & I credit marijuana use with giving me the intelligence to quit that game long before I had to. Didn’t make sense to me sacrifice my body & brain for chump change while old white men made all the money & fans scream ingnorances. Close to 20 years since & I have spent a lot of my free time studying the brain as a hobby & professionally with corrupt neurologists. As well as the system of indoctrination used to trap young men & control their brains via head trauma & constant propaganda. A lot of my perspective comes from seeing first hand what Alzheimer’s did to my dad, who is ten years deep & has very little functioning left. No amount of money or glory is worth putting ones family through that imo. Good luck to this hopeful player, but fuck football. Should be illegal for kids to play & a whole lot of people should be put in jail for working to cover the effects of football up. The denial from coaches players & fans is sickening. I want to see a take an nfl hit booth at every football stadium in the country. Free concussions for fans so they can feel the game 😉
Yeah those hits are brutal and the extremes these athletes go to are amazing. Keep up spreading safety to the younger generation!
Thanks, I’m most concerned about protecting the younger generation. Would love to be the instrument of karma for a lot of football coaches I know, but in reality they are brain damaged & brain washed too, & admitting the truth would be an admission to having brain damage themselves as well admitting there life’s work has been causing irreversible brain damage to kids they say they love. You want to see real denial talk to a high school football coach in 2018. They will spit the nfl made it safer propaganda, but I coached hi school football 2 years ago & the kids I coached were still getting there bells rung regularly & displaying symptoms of head trauma, & I was the only coach on staff who said shit about it. When I see the kids I coached now around town, I apologize to them & give them my unfiltered opinions.
Head trauma besides way overly competition no fed coaches are driving youth into dangerous training practices. And I know what you mean. My nephews and nieces are getting to go a different path. I've seen too many people destroy their bodies in the chase for glory at a game.
