Very long, wrenching, intimate essay built around the death of a much-loved Georgia football player, Paul Oliver. Seriously asks whether we can continue to watch football in light of growing knowledge of the brain injury it causes.
I ask myself that very issue. I love football but the knowledge of what it does to people makes me sad.
