[[File:Symbol possible vote.svg|16px]] [[Junior Seau]] doesn't belong in this hook, at least not worded this way. He was not known to have suffered many concussions while playing and the results of his brain examinations are not in yet, therefore it cannot be said that PCS was a factor in his death. The article, in fact, doesn't say this, and the hook shouldn't, either. [[User:Daniel Case|Daniel Case]] ([[User talk:Daniel Case|talk]]) 16:56, 23 June 2012 (UTC)

Concussions in American football

Created/expanded by ZappaOMati (talk). Self nom at 03:36, 9 June 2012 (UTC)

  • The date for the new article criteria is going to pass after today, and I nominated this page for the new article reason. ZappaOMati 19:33, 12 June 2012 (UTC)
  • Looks like it passed. ZappaOMati 15:24, 13 June 2012 (UTC)
  • The newness factor is for nominating, not reviewing. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 15:06, 20 June 2012 (UTC)

File:Symbol possible vote.svg Junior Seau doesn't belong in this hook, at least not worded this way. He was not known to have suffered many concussions while playing and the results of his brain examinations are not in yet, therefore it cannot be said that PCS was a factor in his death. The article, in fact, doesn't say this, and the hook shouldn't, either. Daniel Case (talk) 16:56, 23 June 2012 (UTC)

Until I fix this, I came up with 2 alternates (one without Seau's mention and the other without him altogether):

ALT1: ... that eight NFL players have died (with five of them being suicides) due in part to concussions having affected their playing careers and later life?
ALT2: ... that seven NFL players have died (with four of them being suicides) due in part to concussions having affected their playing careers and later life? ZappaOMati 22:08, 23 June 2012 (UTC)
