Athletes and Concussions Don't Mix

     If a person had a concussion while playing football and didn't go to a hospital, these are what that person had to suffer through: Depression, more brain damage, other injuries, and possibly even death. He could have even committed suicide. He could have been rushed back onto the field on direct orders from the coach. This is why I think athletes should NOT be allowed to play after a concussion, minor or major. Here is a quote from Alan Boston: "I was told the fact I was pretty fit made a big difference. It could have been a major or minor one."
