Whats Your Opinion? Episode 1

     Todays WYP(Whats your opinion) is on Sports Concussions. This topic has a lot of controversy. Some people believe it is wrong but then again some people think it is not wrong. Now to the facts.

      A proven fact is that 31% of athletes are rushed back to the activity right away after sustaining a concussion. Another important fact is that, football players who have had 3 or more concussions have increased risk of depression. There was one for sure death last year due to concussion another is possible. The autopsies on the football players who have committed suicide showed that their brains have shown damage.

     Now to the opinions. I think for a player to play after a concussion you should have the most amount of rest. Players who have had 1 or more concussions should have doctors come and check on them at their residence. Leave your opinions in the comments.
