i truly dont understand how any parents lets their kids play football anymore.

The revisionist history podcast brought me here and it’s really sad to see how much more we’re learning about CTE and how little it seems to slow the money machine of college and professional football down. I wish a lot more people knew about this already. Unfortunately, it’ll be a long time before the sport ever becomes a past time.
