      True! I looked up CTE in soccer before posting. Apparently repeatedly heading a large ball is not good for the brain

    but they die a few years after retiring, so they’re livin’ the life for like 40 normal years

    What is this from? I’m not sure I want to know but I am morbidly curious.

    If you eat any fast food or processed foods or drink liquids from anything but glass containers, this concern is meaningless

      Yes because repeatedly bashing your head and other parts of yourself is exactly the same. /s

        Let’s see

        get paid millions to hurt your body and shed a few years off your life but retire in your 30s with access to some of the best healthcare and be free to do whatever you want

        get paid poverty wages to get microplastics in your brain only to die from America’s P2P healthcare system

      I’m thinking of a way to test this 🤔. 2 test subjects. Each time one person eats something from McDonald’s the other gets KO’D from a blow to the head. Someone should drop relatively quickly haha.

      I know that the other things you mention are bad too and I agree. But they can all be bad in their own right. I definitely don’t think fast food and micro plastics are healthy but just because they’re not doesn’t negate how bad blunt force head trauma is as well.
