Oh I see. This is all about you having  to be recognized as having it worse than others. Now it all makes sense. This is all about YOU 

yeah you mean like you laughing about blunt trauma football-related injuries all to prove that Trump's an a****** you mean kind of like that? 

Here let me help you out a little bit Grandma The reason I bring it up is that's the reason I'm interested is the reason I've learned a little bit about it It's the reason I want to learn more It's also the reason that I've never read anything that you're saying anywhere and also the same reason that you're trying to act like a f****** medical doctor now :lol2:

GRADES OF CONCUSSION

There is no standard classification system for concussions. Four of the leading researchers in head injuries maintain their own classification system. The symptoms of each degree of concussion are often very similar, and one can be confused when accessing a head injury.

Concussions can be divided into five grades:

Grade 0: results when the head is struck or moved rapidly. It is characterized by a post injury headache and difficulty with concentration. The athlete may not notice any other symptoms.

Grade 1: concussions occur in the same manner but the athlete may appear stunned or dazed. There is no loss of consciousness (LOC), and sensory difficulties clear in less than one minute. Grade 1 concussions are the typical I got my bell rung description from the athlete.

Grade 2: concussions are characterized by headache, cloudy senses lasting longer than one minute, and no LOC. The athlete may have other symptoms including, tinnitus, amnesia, irritability, confusion, or dizziness. One, all or none of these symptoms could be present.

Grade 3: concussions are characterized by LOC of less than one minute, the athlete will not be comatose, and exhibit the same symptoms as a grade 2 concussion.

Grade 4: concussions are characterized by LOC of greater than one minute. The athlete will not be comatose, and will also exhibit the symptoms of the grade 2 and 3 concussions.

I apologize for my last post to you. It was clearly over the line and totally unwarranted. Head injuries are a serious matter no matter how they’re received. They create untold suffering. I took this too far. I’m sorry.

Are There Different Types of ConcussionsConcussions are graded as mild (grade 1), moderate (grade 2), or severe (grade 3), depending on such factors as loss of consciousness, amnesia, and loss of equilibrium. In a grade 1 concussion, symptoms last for less

further down the page on your link, From the Mayo Clinic:

Common injuries that cause concussions include falls or other direct hits to the head, car accidents and blast injuries from explosions. These injuries can affect the brain in different ways and cause different types of concussions.

Still fit into the three categories though (3-severe).  Every category has different Sub-levels.

I posted it more because it backed up what Spin was saying. I could care less about how many categories there are.

Absolutely no reason to apologize. But I appreciate it

My oldest grandson, Ezra 11, was removed from the second to last game of the season this year due to Pop Warner concussion protocol.  

Third quarter his team was up 12 to 6.  Up to that point they had never led the score in any game the whole season.  Ezra made a TD saving open field tackle.  It was a clean tackle from the side, something he had done 25 times this season.  Ezra popped up and started back to the huddle and stumbled a little on his first couple of steps.  Opposing team coach and ref saw him stumble and threw the concussion protocol flag.  He appeared to be fine but our coach talked with Ezra, and decided to take him out of the game.  Ez took a good hit in the tackle but he spoke and performed the sideline concussion tests fine.  Ref said PW rules require him get a doctors permission to return to pads and he gets a 2 game suspension.  All part of fairly new PW concussion protocol.  

Ez was so upset.  He had worked harder than any other kid on the team all year long.  Scored 4 of the 5 TD's the team got this year.  He had over 25 tackles and dozen more assists.  He absolutely loved football.  He was so upset that the opposing coach and ref could through out the Concussion Protocol for what he considered a simple stumble on the field.  

Anyway.  Concussions and TBI is serious business.  IMO we should invest more money studying this and developing better more sophisticated tools to determine the extent of the injury.  From what I read today there is some good technology being used but the more we know and understand about TBI the better.

I have no idea what makes you tick but I find it hilarious that on a discussion about TBI's you type as though you suffer from one.
