Once blood (money) is in the water, with these bloodsuckers, it will be game over, I doubt families would pay the price of a college or NFL ticket to see Jr on Friday night.
I guess those "he got his bell rung", or "follow my finger", or in any case where a kid wasn't sent for comprehensive testing and a kid has any problems,visible or not.....lawsuits against those involved will occur. I sure wouldn't want to be an unqualified person who cleared a kid to play. Even some team Dr's are not experts in dealing with concussions.

Cris Collinsworth said he expects major concussion lawsuits in college and HS football...added that this will end HS football.

Sadly..... he is right.
