Wonder how much time's left on the clock until Munich Re blows the whistle? FWIW as a consultation-liaison consultant to med/surg inpatient teams at UCLA from 92-03, even then neurologists/neurosurgeons said they would never OK their kids playing tackle football, soccer w headers, etc. No brainer.

By age of 12 in the early 1970s, as I was starting to train semi-seriously for what I hoped might become a pro career in soccer, I had already decided to avoid heading the ball whenever possible. Had nobody to advise me about the danger. It just stood to reason. Football v obv was debilitating too.
