Brett Favre has become the latest former National Football League player to reveal he is suffering memory problems after spending 20 years on the playing field.

On ESPN Radio the former star quarterback said that he had become worried about the state of his memory in recent years.

"I think after 20 years God only knows the toll," said Favre, who was sacked 525 times, more than any other NFL quarterback. "This was a little shocking to me, that I couldn't remember my daughter playing youth soccer."

:yeshrug:

You got all that money. You knew what was gonna happen. Don't complain now that you're old and retired. Pay somebody to stand next to you and write notes.

That's the problem, the players weren't aware of the risks. The NFL has kept a tight lid on research.

On the other hand the writing notes thing is gold :dead:

Football might really get fukked over on this one. They better hope Favre don't become to football what Ali became to Boxing.
First shyt that came to my mind........

But as far as Ali goes, he serves as an example as to not go far beyond your physical prime and also be smarter with your money. Boxing change really occurred after Mancini-Kim :wow:

Ali was/is just sort of a cautionary tale, but didn't change boxing at all :manny:
