Show me where I said more than doctors. If you read what I've posted, you saw that I admitted that long term brain damage is a very real thing with fighters. I never said I was a boxer. I have trained in mixed martial arts, and worked as a volunteer teaching martial arts to underpriviliged...

He wasn't a wannabe gangster at 15. He was associating with criminals at that time. And enjoying himself. When you are engaging in criminal activity early on in life, and doing dangerous drugs, it's an indicator of what their behavior might be if they don't change. People are creatures of...

I would rather them not kill or hurt anyone AT ALL. Don't lecture me about poverty. Grew up watching my mom not eat on more than one occassion so that my sister and I could have a meal. You have no idea the guilt I felt as a nine year old boy eating that Macaroni and Cheese. Sometimes I'd...

He was hanging out with gang members at the time and involving himself in illegal activities.

Early, yes. But not full blown. Its like eating crap, and starting to develop pre-diabetes. If you stop, change your diet, change your exercise habits you can negate the damage caused by eating crap. It takes years and years of abuse to typically have heart disease and other vascular...

There are plenty of players who play football and amatuer fighters that fight in their teenage years without developing CTE. Look Muhammad Ali, 1965 vs. 1975. How he moves, how he talks. By 1980 Parkinsons was set in. Not enough damage would occur in the best conditions for a teenager.

I think like Aaron he was born with his brain wired wrong, and CTE exacerbated it. Probably Larry Coker was smiling and clapping, cheering KW on.

I like to think during. "I'm a ******' soldier. Here is my 21 gun salute, *****."

Because Junior Seau wasn't trying to kill himself at 15. I admitted CTE and drugs could be considered a contributing factor. But he got in a bad crowd at a young age and liked it.

We cant throw stones; it was reported Kellen Winslow was openly *********ing in front of the players and coaches in the locker room.

And yet you show more sympathy for the murderer than the man he killed. "Oh, poor OJ! He killed his wife and lover, but he had CTE and secretly hated being black! Rest in Peace OJ!" ..Do you see how crazy that sounds?

He had the SUV that was used to kill two others in 2012 in a garage. But whatever. Actually according to law, since his appeal process didn't end while he was alive, so technically, he wasn't convicted of anything. Oh poor Aaron Hernandez! We're just running his name through the mud! Rest In...

Sure I do. A psychopath can often not feel any apathy or feelings to others. Bloodlust is a real thing. We are, evolutionary wise, barely out of the jungle. Our cerebral cortexes in our brain, when under stress or duress, still operate under 'fight or flight'. For some guys, not only do...

Well, I'll touch it. CTE may have exacerbated the issue in the end, but he wanted to have a violent gangbanger lifestyle even before CTE could be an issue. That, and choosing to use dangerous drugs were a very, very bad combination. He got his wish. And by the way, can we all agree he was...

Especially the old hockey players. There is a thing called scoring a Gordie Howe Hat Trick, which consists of scoring a goal, an assist, and winning one fight. xD

Hitler had syphillis and was the victim of a mustard gas attack in World War One. I don't think that forgives throwing Jews in the oven. So Aaron Hernandez had CTE. According to the documentary, he was hanging out with gangbangers since he was 15. Too soon for CTE to be a factor.

What sympathy? Or are you being facietious again?

One can look at boxing and get your answer to that. How many fighters run in with the wrong and do the wrong things? Obviously, Mike Tyson is probably the most famous problem child. Then you have tragic things like Arturro Gatti, and Oscar De La Hoya. Look at fighters like Muhammad Ali and...

In life, bottom line; you are responsible for your own actions. I neither have the inclination or pity to feel sorry for a gang member that killed for pleasure whilst making millions of dollars catching a football. Maybe I'm crazy, but maybe, just maybe, he got what was coming to him. The...
