Review :

Football is the most popular game in the world. A different business survives due to the organization of football events. Players work hard, get wounded, break bones, get the blow on the head which is thought to be the normal thing in Game.

Dr. Omalu found the serious cause of death after the investigation of Mike Webster's brain. He finds out long term effects of regular blow to the head.

Unlike animals such as the woodpecker and  bighorn sheep, the human head does not have shock absorbers to protect from such collisions.

Everybody thinks, getting wounded and blow to head is a normal thing. But Dr. Omalu takes this fact seriously.

This is based on True Event. After Mike Webster death, other similar cases come into the surface.

Players start to lose their memory, fell dizziness, depression and Dr. term the disorder as Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy (CTE).

NFA try to suppress the fact but after some years when one of the football player commit suicide and left a suicide note that Dr. Omalu was right.

Dr. Omalu's report was so dangerous that it would change the face of football games. The report may cause loss to the stakeholder of the game, but it would prevent many disadvantages.

It is also necessary for the authority to take action for the safety of the players. Also, such a report like Dr. Omalu can make a lot of changes in the player’s life.
