Yes, but if people died so frequently bartending that they needed safety equipment, it would be silly to say that removing the safety equipment would result in safer bar tending practices.
We already have data on what happens when football players don’t have helmets; head injuries so severe they literally die.
IDK. Require a warning, read live by someone with severe CTE, before broadcasts?
Maybe there’s a mechanical solution, such as helmets that track how much trauma someone experiences between practice and games, kinda like the “lifetime radiation exposure” concept.
From what i understand they found that pads and helmets meant guys could hit each other harder and more often, which lead to more minor cte/tbi events that accumulate over time.
honestly just make them play without pads.
make them play with sharp, spiky pads
And cars like Mad Max
Half time show is a guy bungie corded up on the front of a mack truck playing riffs on his flamethrower guitar
People used to die all the time playing football with no or leather helmets.

and now “safety” pads have gone the weapon route. so, what do?

CTE happens in sports without pads, like soccer and rugby. However, Im assuming it’s worse in American football.

you typically don’t full-tilt headbutt another 250 pound guy in those sports.
it’s not that injuries happen at all, it’s the rate, severity, and long-time coverup.
Rugby is safer for that reason. Players learn the helmet can be a weapon so then the rules committee had to ban that.
