Great article. Christian's parents made a great call. Took guts to make that call but Christian will benefit greatly.

The second article about a restrictive collar to hold more fluid in the brain so it is more tolerant of impacts is horrible. It is like assigning a drunk driver to only drive the safest cars so they will survive the collision impacts.

We need the sports to change the rules of play to protect the brains from any impacts.
