[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is OP.  No concussions history in the family.  Both of my brothers and brother in-law played  soccer professionally in Europe.  [/quote]

My brother played professionally in the US.  He doesn't recall any specific concussions either---but I think he has CTE :lol: .  He has always been a wild card.  He was a recessed striker, over 6 feet.  He is the type that would head butt you if you got in the way.

My sister and I played in college.  She shredded her ACL in high school prior to the invention of arthroscopic surgery. It continued to pop out and give out on her until she had fixed recently in her 40s.

I somehow came out relatively unscathed---strained ankle ligaments in left ankle which is the one I roll a lot to this day.  It's pretty bendable where I can roll it all the way over and bound back. The ligaments must be stretched to max.

The only semi-concussion I had was flipping over the bike handle bars and hitting my head on concrete (coming downhill and someone ran out in front of my bike)---pre-bike helmets.
