TD Joins The List

Hall of Fame RB Tony Dorsett announced that he suffers from CTE, the chronic brain debilitating disease linked to so many former NFL players. He is now predisposed to early-stage Alzheimer's.

Dorsett joins growing list of players with a potentially bleak future. His announcement puts a high profile player into the news cycle of the CTE story.

As long as the game I played, CTE will be a problem when players retire and get older. The game is so fast and violent. The human body was not made to absorb so many train-like collisions.

The real tragedy is that players will die, or in some instances, take their own life. We don't need any more Dave Duerson or Junior Seau stories.
