Help Hockey & concussions on The Good Wife

Anybody catch this week's episode? I'm watching it right now. Interesting questions about whether the league promotes violence, if players feel obligated to play when injured in order to keep their jobs, and also pounds out the cumulative effects of brain damage. Actually heard the words chronic traumatic encephalopathy! Interested to see how the lawsuit turns out.

I wonder if there is true interest or just writers who find a new subject to use in the scripts.

Law and Order and Harry's Law have also had concussion episodes.

Any exposure is good exposure.
