Widow sues NCAA over husband’s death after repetitive head trauma in football

“For years (the NCAA) has kept players like Matthew Gee and the public in the dark about an epidemic that was slowly killing college athletes,” the lawsuit said. The center has found CTE in the brains of 110 of 111 deceased former NFL players and 48 of 53 former college players, according to a study in the Journal of the American Medical Association. Hall of Famers diagnosed after death include Ken Stabler, Mike Webster and Junior Seau, a teammate of Gee’s at USC. The NCAA, which required schools in 2010 to have a concussion protocol, said long-term effects of head injuries weren’t well understood at the time Gee played. “For the NCAA, the continued expansion and operation of college football was simply too profitable to put at risk.”In a photo provided by USC Athletics, former Southern California player Matthew Gee plays in an NCAA college football game.

Pa. election 2022: How redistricting could alter control of legislature and other changes to watch

Below, Spotlight PA breaks down three things to watch for Nov. 8:Fewer competitive districts (but those that remain are more competitive)Following this year’s redistricting cycle, both the state House and Senate ended up with fewer competitive seats. The artificial creation of more competitive districts also would have influenced the partisan fairness of the map. “You want competitive districts, but in some districts, you can’t have that,” said Justin Villere, the executive director of Draw the Lines. “There’s not a doubt that the redistricting process was favoring Democrats,” state Rep. Josh Kail (R., Beaver), who leads House Republicans’ campaign efforts, said. Redistricting created two open, competitive House districts — the 33rd and the 30th — in the area, which boasts strip malls tucked into hollows and homes built into hillsides.
