I'm being a little tongue-in-cheek, of course. The article implies a selection bias -- that the actual number of football players with CTE could be as low as 9%. It also notes cases where CTE effects really become "horrible"

It's just people fact-checking information with research. Take it or leave it. But that's not a bad thing. I wish more websites would at least attempt to validate the info they're flinging around.

They fail to completely adhere to the right-wing Fox News counter-narrative. People caught up in that consider everything else "leftist propo."
