What I already know.

CONCUSSIONS!I already know that concussions happen when your head gets knocked really hard. The other reason concussions happen is if your head gets snatched back into a whiplash you could suffer a major concussions. Football is the number one sport concussions happen the most in. Concussions can lead to faster gray hears and loss of memory. I think that football should come up with some ways to try in prevent them. If the concussion is to server you easily get put in the hospital and die. So on way football can prevent them is to make the football helmets have bio shock to them. The reason for that is where the head will not take the hole hit.Them are a few facts that I new from common sense.

Also I would like to know how often do concussions happen, and how to prevent them. What do the players actually do when the suffer a concussion. As you can see how much I enjoy the game of football.
