Man Sucks if True....

Steelers cornerback Artie Burns says he 'definitely' has CTE | Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

“I definitely know I have it,” Burns said. “I’m going to [test positive for] CTE. I don’t need a test. Is it going to tell me how much I have? We play a physical sport, man. Humans are not made to run into each other.”

Humans arent meant to go to war. but we do.

Humans arent meant to drive at fast speeds in automoblies. but we do

Humans arent meant to eat such processed foods. But we do

The list can go on... if you want to play.. play if not do something else.

Wouldn't be surprised if they eventually find a cure for it. It's the result of hitting your head a lot, but apparently it's because some kind of protein forms in your brain that starts slowing killing brain cells. Don't see why they won't be able to eventually make something that stops that from happening.

The problem is the NFL has been stifling reporting and science on CTE for decades so they are way behind they 8 ball on just basic clinical studies much less treatment research.

Think about it tho. If you're a GM would you dangle big $$$ to a dude who just copped to this. I have zero doubt it's true. I sure as **** wouldn't want that high beta asset on the books. Also how retarded do you have to be to say that before you get paid for real. He did just play himself.

Regardless if his brain is now a frittata he is one stupid mfer to admit that on the record to a journalist

If your brain is fd wouldn't you do not sane things. Have you ever wondered why some players do some off the wall stuff. I wish the best for Artie and the rest of the guys especially on Defense. Practice can be worse than games in my opinion.

Not to mention that if he actually believes that he should retire today.

99% of deceased former NFL players tested had CTE. It’s a given. At least he’s cognizant of it and has made the choice to play. It’s his life.

Humans aren’t meant to work 2500 hours a year under high stress while neglecting their health, but they do (and often age, deteriorate or die prematurely because of it) in order to make a fraction of what Burns makes. If you don’t want to get da CTE, then learn a trade or hit the books, get a degree and join the rat race.

Of those 111 tested, because relatives/family suspected it.

CTE found in 99% of studied brains from deceased NFL players - CNN

I have a wrecked shoulder looking at second operation in Jan, need a new knee, just had the good one scoped and I can't remember a **** thing my wife says to me (hehehe) and I didn't get paid a **** thing for beating up my body. LMAO Going from 130lbs dumbbell presses one year ago to 0 breaks a mans heart, but we go on!
