Nobody should let their kids play this sport.
the long term damage is not worth the risk.
No one who actually played football and understands the uniquely valuable life lessons it teaches young people would agree with this. The sport is constantly being revised both in player technique and equipment to be ever safer. And as I've posted before, medical science eventually will solve the brain injury issue via prevention and treatment across ALL sports (football isn't the only place this happens). But your condemnation also begs the question: why the hell are you supposedly a fan of an NFL team? Seems more than a bit hypocritical.Nobody should let their kids play this sport. the long term damage is not worth the risk.

"Quintas...I don't think we should let little Marcus Antonius perform in the emperor's Circus Maximus anymore...those swords are dangerous!"
"I agree, Josepha...if only there was a safer way..."

Relative risk doubles every 2.6 years a person participates in football, per the most recent studies. Now the sample is still convenience, baseline risk is by nature very low so it takes several instances of compounded doubling to get to a meaningful risk factor, and it may very well be that this smoothing sublimates issues unique to the highest level of the game... but the evidence suggests that NFL players are only more likely to develop CTE simply because they play more football for longer. This is true of a lot of other public health issues - there's no safe amount of smoking, but smoking for one year is much less likely to lead to major harm than smoking twenty.

Hmmm would you blame me if I was hesitant to believe that it’s a linear relationship there and rather a concave curve lol
An additional year of high school football is just as risky as an additional year of nfl football with the biggest guys on earth, rampant drug use, and much more violent collisions?
Then why are you & others who share your view New England Patriots FOOTBALL fans in the first place?Nobody should let their kids play this sport.

That's what I'm thinking.Then why are you a New England Patriots FOOTBALL fan in the first place?
