Not a med professional obv, but i remember during autopsy them saying his was by far the worst case theyve ever seen, and it was polka dotted with dead spots I have no clue, but having many dead spots sounds a helluva lot scarier than less do Quote

Huh? What Google you reading? The FakeInfo version? Marley wrote it and Clapton had a hit with it. Anyway... The sheriff and deputy are the same person. He shot the sheriff, the man, title... BUT NOT the "deputy" of the law. Any it's all immaterial... Even if Marley acknowledges that when judged by God, if Marley was wrong he will pay. "...if I am guilty (in the eyes of God/Ja) I will pay..." Wow... Not really too hard to understand, but I am still amazed a lot of people swing & miss on this one!

KellysHandWarmer Posted September 20, 2023 Posted September 20, 2023 1 hour ago, boyst said: Yes, those are stages but not significance of intensity. At least by my knowledge cte is cte and continues to develop. Obviously more contact creates more likelihood but by all accounts I've seen it doesn't intensify or change by getting hit harder, or longer, or any such thing. The only thing that goes up is the likelihood for it by deduction. And even then the difference between the control group was 6%. Not staggering. This is just not true. There is a direct relationship between # of years of football played and not just likelihood of CTE, but also severity of CTE. Per a recent BU study: "Every additional year playing football was associated with 15% increased odds of a CTE diagnosis and, for those with CTE, 14% increased odds of severe CTE." Also, "Every 1,000 additional estimated blows to the head conferred 21% increased odds of a CTE diagnosis, and 13% increased odds of developing severe CTE." https://www.nih.gov/news-events/nih-research-matters/how-football-raises-risk-chronic-traumatic-encephalopathy Quote

Not really too hard to understand, but I am still amazed a lot of people swing & miss on this one! I actually did initially remember it as Marley wrote it and I googled it and I indeed trusted it would bring back correct info, it did not. Guess I should know better but i do like being able to confirm most things online. I also don't want to auto assume my memory is correct though it usually is very solid and I know I'm technically partially braindead from the stroke and I'm sure the area they had to cut a path thru to seal off my ruptured aneurysm is toast as well. So I will try to confirm with Google or other search engines. I do usually trust my first thought on info I have knowledge of. Edited September 20, 2023 by AuntieEm 1 Quote

Now I'm not a major stat dude. But that's not a very overwhelming number to the energy manifested by those who cry about CTE. Thks is just an article where the number stuck in my head because they used a control group vs many studies that didn't. The chances of going up, sure that's impressive but it's also a compounded stat so it's not quite as impressive. Quote

They maybe killed the mother during break-in then weren't leaving any witnesses so Sergio was taken he could be hurt or deceased. That's what the investigation is for to find the truth on what happened. I say prayers that he's ok and wasn't responsible for his mom's murder. Yea would be very bad if he was with his mom and some unknown parties are responsible for killing his mom and kidnapped him to make it seem he is the person who killed her. He may be totally innocent b of that or be totally responsible. Until the investigation is concluded to I'd the suspected perpetrators this is just a bad situation. Quote
