? He was still a murderous, thuggish, piece of sh!t. Unless his trauma occurred when he was 3 or younger, he can rot in hell.

Not to nitpick here but wasn't his daughter deprived of his companionship because he was living in a prison cell, convicted of murder and serving LWOP?

This is great news! Are we able to use this to our advantage? Can we say CTE is the reason that Callaway is a dumbass?

No no no. The brain is the only organ in the body that doesn't malfunction. It is perfectly designed and not susceptible at all to injury or disease. Any time somebody has mental issues, its just laziness and/or stupidity. Now, have a heart problem or a kidney problem or a lung problem, that's totally easy to understand. Brain issues however are a figment of your imagination. Of course, I have to add that the only way to interpret what I just said is to infer that there is an excuse for every instance of bad behavior and nobody can ever be held accountable for anything.

That's the direction we're heading.

Aaron Fernandez was also a stage 50 sociopath, so, there's that.

There are two drivers of CTE research;
1) Lawyers to use the presence of CTE as evidence to sue the NFL for negligence
2) The NFL in order to prove that they are doing their best to mitigate further cases of CTE (and to ward off litigation)

Neither the NFL, nor lawyers, give two schits about player safety. Both are only trying to protect their revenue streams.

So cap, you don't think its possible that a guy who commits suicide or a woman who drowns her kids or a person that goes ape **** and starts shooting people might actually have a problem with the old noodle? I mean, its nothing more than a coincidence that someone who makes completely irrational decisions also has strong evidence of brain injury? If someone had chest pain and an examination showed they had a damaged valve, would you just tell them to suck it up and stop making excuses?
