    This has to be a joke, right??? I don’t think you can diagnose CTE until you are dead :lolol:

    Correct they examine the brain after death. Perhaps someday they will be able diagnose earlier.

    Maybe he's building a defense for his last arrest. Animals had to be put down before there brains could be tested positive for rabies, not sure with medical advances if this is still the case.

    The brain has to be removed for examination

    I see nothing that indicates this is not the case with AB

    Good portion of the population probably have cte. Some more severe than others. Hell I probably have it. I’ve had a number of concussions.

    I wonder if the Kidanalyst will also try to blame this on Ben and BA

    6% per this study. 9% athletes, 3% nonathlete. Much more likely if you played football especially into college

    You don't even have to have a concussion. Just repeated light head trauma can cause it over time. So most of us fans probably have it from face palming while watching the offense the last number of years.

    We have discussed this before but man he sounds more and more bipolar every time I read a news story. I hope someone gets him help.

    A lobotomy would be a good treatment for Antonio at this point.

    Guilt by association. Deebo's hits on Browns players made it so that other teams defenders want to lay people out like Burfy. Or possibly AB is just that crazy and thinks Harrison did clean his clock.
