More on the concussion front...

You may or may not remember Jesse Freitas, who was an NFL QB in the 1970's. His post-football life mirrored that of many of the former players whose deaths have revealed the kind of head trauma found in patients with SEVERE head trauma over the course of YEARS. 

Our hope is that the family of Mr. Freitas, who was found dead "in a parked car" yesterday, will allow the examination of his brain to see if someone of an older generation, as well as someone who did not play a line position, would have the same kind of damage - and frankly, his behavior following his football career warrants that attention.
