You just said brains don't get concussed easier if they have happened recently and I'm being dense? I guess CTE isn't an issue either?

I never said that lol.... I said some people's don't, which is a fact.

Never a good sign for an argument when one side starts making up shit the other person said.

People are different, how bodies react to certain injuries varying massively is about one of the only certainties that we know in the world of medicine. If Gronk takes another insanely hard smash to the head, he could go out, but other than that, he's not going out for a tap on the head, as the guy isn't prone to concussions like some athletes are.

It isn't even relevant whether or not you suffer a concussion in a game anymore...

you take a hit to the head, you're going into the tent for at least 1 play to get evaluated

There isn't an argument. You're wrong.

Okay buddy. You get to come and say I told you so after someone pats Gronk on the head and he dies instantly.

There may be many factors that determine how susceptible each different individual is to potential future concussions. One of those factors is recent concussions. Recent concussions increase susceptibility to future concussions.

I guess all those same research papers that say all brains are different are wrong...

Don't be dense dude.

No you're wrong. There's no way Gronk could ever get another concussion.

E. Unless he gets blasted again of course
