CTE - Football related but not specifice to Southern Miss - Up2stuff - 09-20-2017 09:43 AM
Since we all seem to love football, I thought you guys might be interested in this article. It's long, but interesting. And also points out why I only believe about 1% of what I read in the media. The politically correct thing to do now is attack the sport we enjoy. Anybody that took statistics knows you can make numbers say anything you want. It just depends on which numbers you use.

Quote:Contrary to what appears in the headlines, multiple researchers have found no significant relationship between playing football and increased risk of violence, suicide and dementia in the general football playing population. In fact, studies have shown a lower rate of death due to violence and suicide in NFL players as compared to the general population.
