I saw it from the link. Thanks Balt. it is definitely shown from an "investigative journalist" viewpoint, but the NFL's behavior looks damning no matter how one might try to spin it. Agreed with others that everybody should watch this.

Eye opening for sure. Must watch for NFL fans. I tell you what I wish I could look into the future and see where the NFL is going to be in around 10-15 years it be real interesting.

I don't think football will be much different in 10 - 15 years but I doubt that there will be football as we know it today in 50-75 years.

I find it hard to believe that football can't survive when we have far more violent sports out there like boxing and MMA.

There's risk involved with any sport that involves contact.

From what this show says football causes the same type of brain damage as boxing.

I'm not saying football won't survive but 75 years ago boxing was a major sport and it's barely a blip on the sports radar now. The problem for football will be when parents decide they don't want to risk their child's brain health by allowing them to play football. I think anyone who sees this show would have to think about letting their child play football.
