no i'm not, just my first thought was different. 

My first thought is if theý have evidence he committed matricide then a good lawyer will go with the cte mental illness therefore he needs commitment to an psych ward until he is cured and given no cures for cte brain damage that's a life sentence in a secured psych ward. I assume there still are some as crimes of that nature likely occur more frequently as more in society suffer those  issues.

the whole CTE thing is so funny because that crazy doctor who ranted and raved about it then the movie.

 

studies have show that people who have played any contact sports are 9% of that population, and then about 3% of the population who never played a contact sport have been shown to have it.

 

that 6% isn't much when talking millions and millions of children every sport season playing contact sports. the study i remember reading back when the terrible movie was out listed sports like basketball, soccer, ice hockey, football, and even water polo as contact sports.

 

now, i'm sure the chances go up when you play for longer periods but there have not been any studies i've seen where it is "worse" or graded higher due to amount of injury. if you have cte you simply have cte and the symptoms are pretty cut and dry.

 

also, read a while back that a lot of military folks are getting it, and this included men who are in the heavy weaponry who are subject to the shockwaves of the large calibre munitions.

In another video posted to his Instagram story Tuesday, Brown, 35, referenced the film “Finding Nemo,” repeating the movie’s famous line, “just keep swimming, just keep swimming.”

“Missing? They ain’t never seen Finding Nemo?” he said. “This is traumatic. Lucky I know how to say a joke.”

 

Police said Tuesday they were aware of the posts and are “looking into its authenticity.” The former safety who played college football for Notre Dame and played professionally most recently for the Buffalo Bills is still considered a missing person, Maywood Police Department spokesperson Carmen Rivera said.

I had a coworker flip out like this stating that my boss was trained by agency (which agency varied) was going to kill me when I went to work to renew my badge.  He also said another coworker was training by Red China / North Korea.

 

This sound this is going to be resolved by police catching guy and sent to asylum for examination.

The amount of high risk collisions in college and pro football accounts for the numerous cases of CTE, and to lump it in with all of the other contact sports is disingenuous. The man still played college and professional football and it is still very much a possibility, even though this snap counts were not nearly as high as others who played in the NFL for 7 years.

 

The percentage chance of someone in munitions in today's US armed forces getting CTE is probably much lower compared with football players exposed to a lot of high risk collisions.

Uh huh. But if there are obviously so many cases of people having it and it is essentially a disease without levels of degree than why are more people not committing these crimes, behaving this way, or just having the same attention or problems?

 

The point isn't that there could be more likelihood to get it playing in the NFL vs football in middle school. It's that the statistic isn't that much different for those who didn't play sports and get it. And then again, that if it truly is 9% of all contact sports players why aren't we seeing a rugby player out there being a jerk and then we just excuse his ray rice incident because he got bopped in the head?

?? CTE has four distinct stages, graded by amount of brain damage. The degree of impairment varies greatly by stage:

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.

There is a nickname for Stage IV - Antonio Brown.
