Don't bet on it. The players tested were all deceased and were all suspected of having CTE anyway. That's not a fair study. It's like testing people who ate celery and got cancer, and concluding that celery causes cancer. I have no doubt that repeated head injuries can damage the brain, and I'm also not a huge football fan. But to condemn the entire sport based on this shoddy study is ludicrous. It panders to those who want to believe that football is eeevil.
