WSU QB donates couch to science

Terrible shit man. At the same time, what could have been so bad for this young man to say fuck it's over? Yeah, I get it, CUOG sucks, but, as the starting QB at Cuog you are going to pull all tail you want, and certainly get at least a look at the pros with Leach's system. Chance for tons of money and all the drunk sorority ass I could handle? Where do I sign up? Something really fucking weird was in the closet on this one (drugs, gambling debts, something?).

Ts and Ps to his family, for realz.

CTE doesn't discriminate.

Let's just ban all sports.
 
Mom says he had CTE, but not blaming football, how can that be unless the parents beat the shit out of him? Is that a passive aggressive way of blaming the staff or offensive scheme? Honest question.

Not to dwell on the ugliness of it, but how do you trust an autopsy trying to find subtle signs of CTE on a brain obliterated by a 223 round

CTE doesn't have to cause it, but it could contribute. He could've struggled with depression for a number of years.

I guess they just check for atrophy in the pieces that are still intact, but tau deposits should still be able to be found regardless.

They are starting to go down some other avenues because athletes from many sports are starting to turn up with it.

I was reading the preliminary of a study that suggests inflammation could be a major contributor to it which would explain young kids who have been playing three sports since age six have a 65 year old brain by age 21. Athletes are always beat up no matter the age.

Like inflammation anywhere in the body?

Yes, excessive inflammation. So your distance runners that always have some kind of joint problem from the pounding, basketball players that are always banging and getting hacked, etc.

I think it has some legs. If athletes in general have a much higher percentage of CTE across the board than a tech kid that has never ran more than 10 feet then it makes some sense.

Until they find a way to test for it while people are still alive then it will mostly be guess work.

This is really chinteresting, and dramatically changes the narrative. It's no longer about head chinjuries (at least not exclusively). This puts every sport in the crosshairs.

Dark shit man.

I believe this started when it started coming to light that soccer players were turning up with it and they blamed it on heading the ball. When you really dig into it how often does a premier league player head a ball that has a ton of pace to it and it's less than 20 times a year. So, if we are saying it's only hits to the head and so few can cause it then a fist fight you had in middle school might mean you'll lose your cognitive function by 55.

I've read something being studied at Cal that might tie a lack of sleep to it as well. The only time your brain heals itself is during deep sleep and since most people don't get the required 7-9 hours when you get a concussion and you stay on your normal 5-6 hour sleep routine you get to a place where you can pass the eval to get back on the field but the damage wasn't repaired at all.

It's really chinteresting and something I research a ton being so involved with the game and having two young sons that both want to play. Maybe Bobby Boucher's mom was right and da foosball is da devil.

This kind of shit would lead you to believe anyone who ever played Pop Warner football is like some barely functioning zombie.

Fucking horseshit
