According to your uninformed comment, perhaps some?
CTE is not a joke, and isn't the product of a few head bumps. The fact that you put brain damage in quotes, as if the brain isn't actually damaged from such things, is beyond ignorant.
Maybe start here:

- bcook 11y agoThe quotes were intended to differentiate between the obvious, instantaneous brain damage from head trauma and the long-term, hard to measure effects of an unhealthy, sedentary life-style has on the brain. I was trying to point out that we are overly focused on the easily measured (negative) effects. His life-style also had positive effects, but they were not instantaneous. Knowing what led him to suicide is infinitely more complex that asking "how many times did he bonk his head?".
