I really enjoyed the movie, but the Frontline documentary was much more


I saw the Frontline documentary over a year ago and it was powerful stuff. I was glad I had never had a boy. If I was a mother of a boy today, I would never let him play football after seeing the documentary. This movie would not have made me think twice about a child playing football. but that documentary did. The problem is that the damage starts so young. I was glad to see this movie made though because the issue needed to be brought up. It is hard for me because I am a big Kansas City Chiefs fan. I don't want football to go sway, but I would hope that science can come up with helmets that can protect the human brain like the brain of the Woodpecker is protected.

I was able to find "Frontline - League of Denial" on PBS on my Roku, so you can still easily see the documentary.

Thanks for the heads up. I'll see if I can find it after I watch the movie.
