Message: [QUOTE="RandomGuy, post: 2277958, member: 6422"] LB is most concussed. There are studies being done at the high school level, to determine the risk, at this level. Pre concussion protocol studies, at the NFL level are a different animal. Some folks are just opposed because of the inherent violence. A smaller group, I know, is opposed to anything specifically masculine(or feminine)... To each his own. These folks may be quick to cite studies or individuals that back their beliefs,(like jr. Seau having 1500 concussions) although the current data, is not addressing some of the changes. We shall see. New helmet can reduce the force up to 50%. It's s good start, and should significantly reduce the overall, non concussed, trauma. I believe this will be especially true at the high school level, where there are 3 or 4 sports that currently suffer from higher concussion rates(measurable). [/QUOTE]
