Athlete Minded: Stories

So far in the concussion series, we've heard from three former athletes.  But today, we don't talk to an athlete, we talk to the wife of a former NFL offensive lineman.  I can only imagine what it was like being an offensive lineman in the NFL for 8 seasons, and today we get to hear what it's like for the wife of one of these athletes. This is illuminating, because what happens in a sport doesn't just affect the one person.  It affects that person's family, friends, and community, who also have to experience the symptoms as well.   We touch on the NFL, their response to the concussion crisis, and Liz takes us into her story and dealings with the NFL.  Overall, a powerful podcast from a different perspective in athletics.
