Giants player targeting 49ers player because of his history of concussions
This article almost made me sick to my stomach. Now i know that a guy with 4 concussions probably shouldnt still be playing a professional sport in the first place....but the fact that these Giants players were saying that they were specifically targeting Williams because they knew he had concussions and could ring him up and take him out. Its different if you were going after someone with a bad knee or a bad shoulder......but a concussed brain?!?! Second Impact Syndrome could kill this guy or cause serious disability! I just got in a facebook fight with a bunch of guys trying to make excuses for their comments. And yes, i am a Patriots fan so the guys arguing with me are all Giants fans......but this is just plain stupid to admit to the media you are targeting someone with multiple concussions.
Also on a side note.....CNN is having a special this Sunday Jan 29th at 9pm on concussions in youth sports called "Big Hits, Broken Dreams"

Suffered a TBI with PCS on April 25th 2011 from multiple blows to the head from falling, unconscious for 12 hours with no memory of event. Hit the back of my head, and above right eye. MRI and CT negative. Symptoms included constant headaches (migraine, pressure, tension, icepicks), dizziness, tinnitus, visual changes, photophobia, fatigue, "spacing out", word finding difficulties, depression, and emotional lability.
Began Healing in November 2011 after starting acupuncture and Healing Touch (a nurturing energy therapy that promotes relaxation and pain relief). I went back to work in February 2012. Ive been symptom free since July 2012. Very happy, positive, energetic and working out every day, doing yoga, and living a normal life again!
I also began taking Healing Touch classes in November 2011 and completed 5 Levels of Healing Touch Certificate Program that included a 1 year mentorship to become a Healing Touch International Practitioner in June 2013. I am so pleased to offer this wonderful healing therapy to my patients, friends, and clients.
