Football article, injuries

The article I found in the New York Times was about head injuries in football. It was published Oct. 21, 2010 so it is a fairly new article. I liked the article because it gave me facts about head injuries in football. It also gave definitions of medical words that had a great deal to do with the article, and the article didn’t assume that its audience knew what the words meant. Over all I liked the article because the detail it gave about the topic and it stuck to the topic.

These injuries all have different effects on players. Some could just take a player out for a game, or some of the injuries could take a player out for a whole season. Each injury has its own way of treatment that if done right can be make a player come back to play football before the expected time. A feature article can be written on this because it can inform people about injuries that football players could possibly deal with and treat.
