Look at the amount of people who have played football got cte and or Als.

I said that I accept football can cause CTE but miss me with it's a cause of ALS

In 2012, an article in the journal Neurology found that professional football players are four times more likely to die of ALS than the general population. That’s in keeping with other research that shows that football players who have endured concussive blows to the head are at a higher risk for a range of neurological disorders, including, potentially, ALS

All that statement says is they are more likely to DIE from ALS than the rest of us. Not be diagnosed with ALS--but DIE from it...which is why I also said that sure, maybe the brain injuries (concussions) could accelerate the progress of ALS.

Which is strange cuz EVERYONE dies from als, unless u have some rare form of it. Als is very rare to begin with and just imagine how the odds to get the rare form.

Most people diagnosed live 1 to 2 years.

Football should be dead in a few decades. It's just to damaging to the brain to keep this shyt up and allow people to do this to themselves just for other people's entertainment.
It will be 7 on 7 in about 20 years. Save the file.
