Those studies are highly flawed since only suspect brains are chosen to achieve the 99% results.So are its players

CTE falls on a spectrum, and—unsurprisingly—professional football players tended to have some of the most severe brain damage compared to players at the semiprofessional or college level.
Eighty-six percent of professional players had severe CTE, whereas only 56% of other groups of players did (excluding former high school players, of whom three out of 14 had any kind of CTE). In total, 84 of the 202 players had severe CTE.
According to family interviews, 89% of these players showed either behavioral or cognitive changes, and 85% of them showed signs of dementia. Among the other 27 players who had only mild CTE, 95% of them had changes in their mental health, such as signs of depression or anxiety.
This evidence is the largest to date that suggests that playing American football leads to lasting brain damage.
Back in 2015, research found that 87 out of 91 players who had donated their bodies to science had evidence of CTE as well.
Yep.Yes, so the selection of players who had donated their bodies to science was rigged you are saying?
LOL, I was hoping it was about the death of pro sports as it is entertainment rather than true competition. Expensive as hell thanks to all the PR money poured into it once all avenues are included. Fans deserve a lot more fact for a lot less money.So are its players

Trump is one to talk about how to run football teams. His USFL New Jersey Generals flopped big time.
Do you really want to bring up people like Peter Puck??as did so many other corporations he owned
