In reply to Anne. I have the same existential thing when it comes to football. I love the game so much, but the injuries and violence... not so much. Have you listened to the Gladiator podcast? They did a season on Aaron Hernandez, CTEs, and the way the NFL deals with injuries as a whole and it was FASCINATING. It really opened my eyes to the way players are taught to treat their injuries, and why concussions are still not treated as seriously as they should be. I'm so glad Tua is okay, and it looks like he might be back next week, but man, I'm going to be so nervous watching him (especially with our offensive line that isn't doing much to protect our QBs lately, seeing as every starting QB from the last 3 weeks leaves with an injury, ugh.)
