Message: [QUOTE="BlueMAB, post: 2016846, member: 920"] History of concussions? How many has he had, when did he have them, and what was their severity? We know he had one in November of 2015. Logic doesn't suggest that should or would keep him from playing in 2017, when it didn't keep him from playing in 2016. He doesn't need your approval, or understanding, of what playing, anywhere, "does" for him. He gets to decide for himself. The fact that he may only have one more year to play this game at a level far higher than most people ever reach, is only more incentive to play. But if he plays at least this year, he can re-assess next year. And he'll get to tell his son or daughter that he didn't quit on his dream. That he knew he had a short window to do something he loves, and he didn't quit just because some on a sports message board obviously doesn't get why people play sports. [/QUOTE]
