The recent report confirmed what was generally believed. Football is dangerous. Brain damage was found in 99% of the professional players whose brains were studied post-mortem. Even providing for statistical variations, the results seem clear and are troubling. The NFL will, no doubt, take steps to address the problem -- changes to rules to ameliorate the most injury-causing plays, and public relations to combat the bad press. But will it impact the fans? Although I am not an avid football fan, I watch my share during the season and I'm increasingly questioning what I am watching...and why? Am I watching the gladiators of another time? And, if so, what does that say about me?
