Also, if a brain has suffered enough trauma to have CTE, there would be visible damage.
I actually did read the link but, until now, I didn't really pick up on it to notice what was obviously proving my point.
There was a buildup of tau in the brain scans that is visible before death, and the tau leads to CTE, so no, I'm not wrong, but thanks for making me look it up to prove you wrong.
Here's a link showing healthy tau and damaged tau, which may not show exactly CTE, but it's what causes CTE.
Therefore, you do brain scans, and, if a player is missing tau or it's damaged, you end their career.
You don't get it, but that's fine it's what you do. Good luck Brad.
