Multiple concussions do not equal brain damage. Take Merril Hoge as an example.

I know you think a lot of yourself, but you’re not a medical doctor. Multiple concussions don’t mean you have permanent brain damage. Besides, the UPMC sports center has finest concussion and brain research in the world. And I had the opportunity to meet those guys. Dr Collin’s especially. I haven’t seen an official report from them. So who is the “We” you speak of? You’re not being obtuse, you’re just bullshitting. BTW, I’m leaving Fiores as we speak. There’s an empty chair.

A single concussion is brain damage. Having to equivocate and add qualifiers like permanent or temporary after the fact means you should have done a better job tightening up your language.

"any brain damage"

He's had quite a bit.

Hope you had fun, btw. Never got that PM so you'll be missed this evening

Then most people have “brain damage” that have played contact sports. To repeat the narrative that the VB hit changed AB is just that. A narrative. Not medically or scientifically proven. I didn’t need to PM you. I said what time I would be there. You should have PMed me.

You should tighten up your medical opinions

It’s likely to experience brain injury after a concussion. Most commonly, the injury will heal over days or weeks. It’s rare for one single concussion to lead to any long term effect on your brain activity. Of course, each brain injury is unique, but one concussion is treatable and will heal without long term repercussions.

Even those statements need tightened up and a good logic check. Another thread perhaps. Start one and I'll lay out why.

Back on topic, Howard had signed

Steelers just need to pull the plug on this. He's not worth it

Tomlin will let Rodgers take as long as he wants. He's his best chance to continue his "non losing season" streak.
