I have to strongly disagree that American football is a "lame game consisting of mostly low skilled athletes", I think the athleticism and skill involved is tremendously high across all positions. But I will agree with you otherwise and say that the NFL has a strong incentive to dissuade youth, amateur, and semi-pro football players from adjusting their play to avoid CTE and dangerous play. The game is more physical now than ever, the players are bigger, they run faster, they hit harder, and that contributes to the popularity of the sport. If the NFL can figure out a way to regulate dangerous hitting out of the game and preserve the appeal of the game, that would immediately trickle down to all levels and make the game safer.
