CTE and Tommy Nobis - You gotta read this paragraph



Great article in the AJC concerning CTE and its affect on Mr. Falcon and Longhorn legend Tommy Nobis. I quote the last paragraph from his daughter which is one of the most powerful I have ever read.

In an email, she wrote her thoughts on what football ultimately had meant to one family: "It brought discipline and recklessness, self-worth and depression, strength and weakness, determination and fear, teamwork and destruction of relationships, competition and dissension, friendships and loneliness, strategy and brutal honesty, entertainment and subsistence. In the end, it brought humility in every sense of the word."

I only post this here because the other site (you know who you are) stupidly banned me. They are free to unban me anytime. Until then, may this one prosper.
