Default Great idea

Looking to professional sports associations to help fund brain injury reseach is a great idea that your should really suggest to the scientists involved. How many players have seen their careers end too soon and/or the quality of their post retirement lives seriously eroded by TBIs. Heck, many people think that head injuries contribute to the high levels of domestic violence among NFL and NHL players.

A cure for headinjuries would also allow contact sports to grow as parents would be less reluctant to let their children participate.

Good thinking!
