Herschel Walker said he'd proudly compare his resume with that of Barack Obama. Obama was a two-term president, who also won the popular vote twice, won a Nobel Peace Prize, an Emmy, and an Oscar. Walker scored some touchdowns and paid for lots of abortions.

Obama also has an Ivy League education, a law degree, was a US Senator, a bestselling author, an educator, and also won two Grammy's.

1. I wonder just how deep into crazy town we will delve before

Election Day.

2. You're going to need scuba gear

3. President Obama also has had one wife who has an Ivy League J.D., is a wonderful mother & daughter,

a very successful career too, produced movies, and is kind.

His two kids went to Harvard and the University of Michigan.

And he protected this too. (the world's largest marine preserve)

4. Also, Obama would kick Walker's ass in basketball.

5. Beat me to it.

6. For sure. Much better jumpshot

[Mr.Bill]

9. Correct.

I bet Walker can't shoot a three-pointer.

7. And I'd be a little nervous too, being that a lot of former football players are ...

suffering from CTE, an unfortunate and deadly disease affecting the brain from repeated blows suffered on the football field. I hope that Mr. Walker has a successful life after football, but I suspect that the brain injuries suffered as a result of his football history probably won't heal 100%, so this could play a role in his ability to be 100% if he should win the election.

The link between football and traumatic brain injury continues to strengthen. Now, one of the largest studies on the subject to date finds that 110 out of 111 deceased NFL players had chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), a degenerative brain disorder associated with repetitive head trauma.

Several studies have linked CTE to suicidal behavior, dementia and declines in memory, executive function and mood. Professional athletes may be at higher risk for CTE because of their high likelihood for concussions and other traumatic brain injuries; up to 3.8 million sports-related concussions occur in the United States each year. In 2016, a health official with the NFL acknowledged the link between football and CTE for the first time.

In the new study, published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, researchers looked at the brains of 202 deceased people who had played football at various levels, from high school to the NFL. (The brains had been donated to a brain bank at Boston University for further study.) The researchers analyzed the brains for signs of CTE and also spoke to family members about the players’ histories.

They diagnosed CTE in 87% of the players. Among the 111 NFL players, 99% had CTE.
