    The largest CTE survey of dead former players had like 99.5% (if I recall correctly it was 199/200) of players with signs of CTE at their time of death. This is players from high school, college, and pro levels.

    Obviously it's just one observational study, but that's not a good baseline for the sport.

    Not passing judgements, though, for people who watch it. I played football through high school and still watch soccer which has its own problems with CTE.
