re: Another example of why I don’t understand how football keeps getting elevated in society

quote:

---

Football dramatically increases the risk of injury, specifically head injuries due to grown as a men on HGH and prescription meds launching themselves into each other for years.

It’s not a risk, it’s a self induced trauma that’s only a matter of time before it affects the individuals

Those grown-arse men are not being forced to play though. They are choosing to play because they love the sport and they make millions that they would never be able to make otherwise. It may not be the wisest thing to do, but it's what they choose to do.
