RegretfulHuman68, Replay: I know a gentleman who after open heart surgery would faint and suffer syncopy and hit his head. His neurologist diagnosed him with CTE he had to retire from teaching because of it. He never played any contact sports. Sad he Had a gifted brain. :(

vikked, and the picture gave a big clue, as long as you know that encephalitis is inflammation of the brain (or that encephalon is the brain; basically anything that starts with encepha-).

i def also actually looked down this list for boxing to be listed. im sure it was probably just skipped because thats gotta be num 2 on the list football being 1st to cuz this issue. but it does say "and other sport related blows" if my mind serves me correct. never heard it put in this term before tho so learned something new i guess. thx

Only one of the option sounds medical, so the answer was obvious

RegretfulHuman68, they didn't say it was an exhaustive list, just a few examples.

Chris Sharkey, me too Chris. I was thrown from my friends horse, catching my foot in the stirrup, then being dragged along a road for a quarter of a mile, before my foot came loose.

This is a very sad disease. I think of Aaron Hernandez, so very tragic for such a talented athlete. 🥲
