Very uncanny.

Interesting theory. I wonder along with the TBI theory, they'll delve into a PTSD-type theory as well. Football is not mortal combat, but at the NFL-level, it is extremely violent and prolonged exposure could produce similiar symptoms, I suppose. Who knows how the human mind will react?

It's a bad situation all around, <sigh>.
