Concussions in sports have become a 'hot' topic and deservedly so because of the fact that concussions are brain injuries. Journalist Patrick Hruby has been on the forefront of reporting on the dangers of concussions to NFL players' health. He has put together several investigative articles that have focused on why the NFL was so slow to recognize the dangers of concussion and these articles have highlighted a systematic downplaying of the dangers of concussion to help protect the game (not the players!). This is a great conversation that might change your mind about the current NFL/player concussion lawsuits....Enjoy!
