UD‘s loving the CTE headlines leading up to the Super Bowl. Her favorite so far:
[Ken] Stabler’s Brain Damage Intrudes on Super Bowl Fun
In the same, er, vein:
Ken Stabler’s CTE Diagnosis Put[s] Damper on Super Bowl Glitz
There’s also:
NFL’s New CTE-Tainted Reality
This tainting glitz-dampening fun-intrusion risks making this year’s Super Bowl a kind of Masque of the Red Death, the field crashed by a guy in a red suit and a facemask.
Updated version of the party crashing.
