Seau's Sacrafice
In our latest article, we pin point the topic of Junior Seau's suicide. Many people believe that the well known San Diego Charger and New England Patriot line backer suffered from concussions. The thought of this is not to far off, Seau was known as a fearless tackler that had no regard for his body.The doctor that actually looked at Seau's brain said there was evidence of CTE. Dr. Cantu says that 45% of NFL players suffer from this brain disease that has to do with concussions and head trauma. Cantu says that the only ways to prevent a player from having CTE is to bench the player even if he has just reminents of a prior concussion. Cantu says that they need to be benched and taken away from contact to fully heal. This info took a toll on my thoughts on concussions. It just goes to show that no one is safe, no matter who you are, you are susceptible to concussions. Tyler Seau, Seau's son, has told reporters that he will no longer play football because of what happened to his dad. Obviously this type of injury has effects on everyone. From players to fans, from fathers to sons, people are all now becoming aware of serious this injury can be. It just makes you think how long you have, how at risk are you.
