Keep in mind that Chris Ryan is an editor first and writer second, and so is Fennessy.

I know this is real science, not the movie (which largely does its best to support the science but is still a novel basically) but I can’t resist:

I need a ruling:

Respectfully:

For all intents and purposes, zero. Tau is observed in Alzheimers patients and some similar disorders and that’s it. So among people age 40-65 (many of the brains in question), the frequeny is basically nil. Maybe 1 in 10,000 ... compared to 90% or whatever in studies like these for NFLers.

Let’s make the math simpler:

Charles, this was wonderful, and a great read even for the most casual of casual fans (watch 1 fight every 5 years... and yes I was suckered into May-Pac).

They used that language specifically because “more probable than not” was the standard Wells was asked to prove.

Racism doesn’t exist because we have a black president.

Watching Chris and Warren talk to players after seeing them on TV is a fascinating example of code switching.

Not necessarily. There are instances where one party will pay more for exclusive license than many parties would pay, combined, for shared license. It’s true of all sorts of businesses, not just video games.

That dude spends more time in the gym than anyone. He’s an incredible athlete. Maybe the film room or the training field, but the gym? He’s got that way covered.

It’s a franchise based on making money (the product is a competition), so...

Chargers and Raiders, dude. Looks like you’re a Bolts fan now.

I think Cam Newton vs. Andre Johnson would be a really good fight.

That... was... amazing.

Giving someone something unexpected they weren’t looking for is the best kind of gift! I didn’t know I needed Fury Road in my life, but I did. You didn’t know you needed a telephone that did email and had the internet either, but you love it don’t you.

Nah man, he’s 2015’s Ryan Gosling. Just a little more muscle.
