        It’s from heading the ball (at least in soccer) A lot of repeated head impacts can result in CTE.

            I didn’t think you were being rude. I just assumed it was a joke. But, I’m tired, and been flying all day, so I explained it anyway, lol

          I remember the average professional soccer player loses ~10 points of IQ per decade due to the repeated impacts to the head. There was a guy advocating for the introduction of helmets in children’s leagues because of the potential.
