CTEM–Like ALS, A Frightening Result From Head Trauma For Many Athletes In Contact Sports, Particularly American Football

The above is my version of title by Steve Dorfman at The Palm Beach Post from his article there on September 8, 2014.

With the death of “The Catch” star Dwight Clark today from (they say) ALS at the young age of 61, I wanted to get more information on that disease and CTE or CTEM. While I’ve opposed the idea of ending contact sports like American football and football, it must be said that all athletes who get involved in contact sports should be warned of the dangers.
