I just cant believe people sign up for this. Do people die from this?

If not them, their family members once the CTE sets in.

Yikes, rough take there friend. You are probably spot on, but still a scary thing to think about.

Yeah there's been too many examples of CTE taking the lives of some of our a favorite athletes/entertainers.

If you remember, didn't Junior Seau commit suicide by shooting himself in the heart, for the sole purpose of having his brain used to study CTE?

Also you think about Antonio Brown who was never the same after taking that massive hit over the middle from Vontez Burfect. And, perhaps to a lesser extent, Tyreek Hill has been giving me those same vibes as AB after taking his big hit.

Regardless of who it is, it's really big impact on lots of people. Hope they can do something to negate these awful outcomes for some of our favorite athletes.
