Taking off the helmets is not going to get rid of concussions.

A collision sport like football is always going to have to live with a concussion problem to a degree.

True that! And people break bones and sometimes die from snow skiing. There's a risk involved in alot of sports. If you don't want to take it...don't. It's a violent sport. People know that when they play...and when they take huge sums of money to do it. Nobody wants to see someone get seriously hurt. But the reality of the game is it can happen.
