actually, i think this may have something to it. ever notice how professional athletes are more prone to injury later in their careers? you get hit in the knee when you're 20, no big deal. shake it off. you take that same hit when you're 35, kiss your career goodbye.
take steve young for example. he was the king of concussions. i know he was in double digits for his career. anyways, he had more of them as he got older. it's possible that because he was older/slower that people hit him harder more often, but it's also possible that his head couldn't take any more punishment. something to think on.
when your get knocked out, your brain bounces around your skull. think that this is a good thing? i believe that the more this happens, the less shock/rupture your brain will be able to withstand--thus making the ko easier. any ideas?
