being padded. there s a great scene in the movie where will schmidt has a human brain in a jar of liquid and he starts shaking it back and forth. that s very arresting when you see it. right. it really brings the human element, i think, into the story because for a lot of people it s easy to brush off concussions, oh, you got your bell rung, you ll be fine. things will be okay. once you start seeing the long-term effects of cte, of what it actually does to people, then you get that visual element of, this is how it changes people. it s a permanent change. chris, look, when you join the league, and granted, you were a punter, every position is at risk, you didn t know what we know today about cte. i know you re a proud father, a stay-at-home dad with your kids, doing the most important job. are you letting them play the game? unfortunately, i have two daughters so i don t think the league will let them in anyways. maybe as kickers. another segment.
dr. siegel, first off, i remember when i was a kid in wrestling i may have gotten a concussion. they said, shake it off, you may have gotten your bell rung. it s serious, widespread. what rtsymptoms? first of all, when i interviewed harry carson there, he says, sometimes you don t know if you have a concussion. you go rook right back in the game. meanwhile, later on, you could start souuffering from inabilit to think clearly, develop headaches, nausea, develop depression and you may not even know you had a concussion. so you can get hit several times. what do you look for? carson said that you can get one smack and end up not the same for the rest of your life, even in high school. what should you look for? i think you would first of all look for somebody getting hitting you. secondly, you look for a headache. then you look for not feeling like yourself. you re having problems thinking clearly. you re having problems solving problems that people give you. your judgment is off
this? i think they absolutely need to. there s a couple important reasons. people talked about concussions as getting your bell rung or something like that. it was it s trau mat you can brain injuries and changes the dynamic. a lot of concussions go undiagnosed. people don t report them. as a result of these studies, people are more likely to report them. there are other sports to develop concussions or hits. these kids brains are still developing at that age. it might have more of an impact on them. the chief held at vierz for the nfl, i had a chance to sit down and talk to her about this. take a listen. any contact sports is going to have a risk of injury. e we see that in soccer, for example. i think that s critical is
and move on to the next drug and because i want my bell rung basically, right, and it s insiddious but then there s other people that i know adults that smoke every day, they are functioning people. they are taxpayers, and they don t want to get any higher. so i m not taking the position of pot legalization necessarily, but i think all the legalization that s occurring now is sending a message to that 12 or 13-year-old that you know the possibility of you using it might be okay for you, and it s almost condoning it in a sense and so that s sort of the slippery slope that concerns me the most. what do you see the future of our laws will be as far as marijuana goes since they are changing so dramatically. here s the situation. society wants to accept marijuana as something that s safe on par with maybe alcohol perhaps. then the administration or congress needs to change the law. we currently have thousands of people locked up in federal prison on nonviolent marijuana
