Injuries to the head

http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/subjects/f/football/head_injuries/index.html

I found a very interesting article on head injuries in football written in the New York Times.  I felt this was relevant after talking about it in class.  The statistic speak for themselves and these type of injuries continue to be a scary problem in sports, specifically football in this article,  Even with an improvement in equipment and having more strict rules regarding hits to the head, the issue will never resolve completely.  The players are becoming stronger,faster, and more powerful as the game has progressed over the years.  In my opinion, all they can do is minimize these injuries and whenever any head trauma is done, teams are forced to have players sit out for a lengthy amount of time.  It is not worth it to risk more injury to your brain.  It is nothing like any other injury.
