well talking about concussions. I knew it was a pretty common thing it the sport of football but the numbers this tells you is alot. And it says that the players returned after 2 weeks. Im not a doctor but something tells me that if your brain bounces off the side of your skull that your gonna need more then 2 weeks to fully recover from that. It also stated the 17 people have died from it. All high school players this is kinda sad but I think that only 17 is a good statistic out of all the players that receive concussions. I think that more precaution should be taken when it comes to protecting players and treating them. This could save the lives of the 17 and help prevent other concussions from happening. This paper also states that to be released the person must be symptom free for 7 days. What even are the symptoms of a concussion. I dont have a clue. But I do think that the time to wait should be pushed back way more with kids that brains are still maturing. So that they dont get hurt worse and end up ruining the rest of their lives. And now im gonna give you my opinion on coaches that want to win even tho it comes down to putting a hurt kid back into the game hurting him even worse even death. This just is crazy and I know that it is different in some people than others but I think that when it comes down to a decision like that the kids parents and athletic trainer should make the choice not the coach. Because most are hungry for the win and would do anything to get that.
