Summary

It's Super Bowl LVII Sunday this weekend! So we thought we'd give you a little bit of education on CTE, or Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy, which can be developed from repeated head trauma, and can lead to a host of symptoms including confusion and aggression. Michelle talks about CTE and how it's affected the lives of many football players, particularly Aaron Hernandez and Jovan Belcher.

Note: All thoughts and opinions expressed by That's So Fcked Up are those of the hosts alone. Statements made are not blanket statements, and we evaluate each story on a case to case basis.
