[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Landmark study finished in England and shows a significant increase in dementia for professional players.

“The analysis found that there was a five-fold increase in the risk of Alzheimer's, a four-fold increase in Motor Neurone disease and a two-fold increase in Parkinson's. The research also found former footballers were almost five times more likely to have been prescribed dementia drugs”

This is the study commissioned a couple years ago by the players association PFA and the English FA following public pressure after some famous footballers were suffering from the effects.

Perhaps we should ban soccer as a whole in this area, which would prevent concussions, dementia, and the cesspool of garbage it has become here. [/quote]

Yep, sign them up for American football.  [/quote]
