Dr. Bennet Omalu mentioned, “Tua, my brother. I love you. I love you as much as I love my son. Stop playing. Stop. Hang your helmet and gallantly walk away… If you love your life, if you love your family, you love your kids — if you have kids — it’s time to gallantly walk away. Go find something else to do… Sometimes money is not more valuable than human life. $20 billion is not worth more than your brain.”
