Quote:"Heading" Bans in Soccer May Not Be Enough to Stop Concussions

Eliminating player-on-player contact would help more than a heading ban, a new study

The head was designed for thinking.  (Religitards aside.)

Literally responsed to the exact same study in a post before.

Also fear of cte is a piss poor excuse to sit on your ass, be lazy and depressed. Esspecially considering 95% of sports have 0% risk of cte. You are thousands of times more likely to die of a heart attack from being a lazy fat ass than you are of getting any serious cte problems.

Our minds were made for thinking and our bodies are made for exercise.
