  • I Want to Just Start by Saying We Tried to Build a Panel with Perspectives from Different Angles on This Issue
    Scott Lewis: I want to just start by saying we tried to build a panel with perspectives from different angles on this issue. But I gotta say that we didn't find anyone who represented the pro-concussion side of things [laughter]. So that perspective is going to be lost. But really, this is not an attack. I want to just start by saying this is not an attack on anyone. This is not an attack on any particular school, this is not an attack on any particular league. This is not an attack on football. In fact we called this “The Future of Football” for a reason. It's because I want to see and I want to know what the future of football really is. Because football is kind of special. It's kind of unique. Football has reinvented itself – a lot – over and over, since it began. When it began, football was just a group of guys and another group of guys and they hit and they saw how much they could push each other. And that was the game. And people died all the time. And it took the president of the United States to intervene at one particular point after the turn of the century in 1905 or 6, and say “hey! If we're going to save this game we're going to have to change it." And football throughout its entire history has reinvented itself. It's adapted technologies. It's brought new rules on. It's changed. And it's this adaptability, it's this innovation, it's this change that has made it the most popular sport by far, in this country.
