After watching the movie Great Achievements, Broken Dreams and hearing all the great points made by Dr. Sanjay Gupta, I was truly amazed by the things I saw and heard. As every high school and college athlete knows, there are many great benefits to playing all sports. Whether you are looking for a “full journey” to college or even a career in the professional league, there are many highly successful paths for an athlete. That said, I still believe that safety comes first. It doesn't matter how much money can be invested in something, it doesn't matter if you will eventually die. There are so many possible possibilities of sustaining an injury, be it temporary or permanent. Many sports injuries, especially soccer injuries, can be fatal. Using an example from the movie, Jaquan was just a 16 year old boy with a dream of playing football forever. He was a great athlete and always seemed to know what he was doing. The difference here is that Jaquan was not in control of his injury. He had not been examined by a doctor the first time, and if he had perhaps he would have been saved from death the next time. On the other hand, the other young protagonist of this film, named Gray, was not informed about the brain damage he already had before the collision, and if his family had known, I'm sure he still wouldn't have played. . Therefore, I firmly believe that the athletic risks outweigh the benefits that athletes will gain from playing sports in the first place. There are many people who play a key role in athletes' injuries and how they take care of themselves. Some may be more thoughtful than others, but the contributions of all roles are important in determining whether or not an athlete is able to participate in the game. The first role is always that of the parent... in the middle of the paper... for starters I will eliminate all these new ideas for injury prevention. Having said that, I believe everyone needs to step up and change something in the game. After seeing the film I don't blame anyone in particular, because as a "team" it is everyone's duty to work together and communicate. Jaquan's family should have realized that seeing a doctor, or at least being seen by the coach, was a crucial decision. On the other hand, Jaquan's coaches should have realized the lack of medical attention and intervened immediately; rather than thinking about your sport first. Bottom line, unintentional injuries can happen to anyone, but it takes the strongest player to step up and admit that they feel something is wrong. This video should not only inspire people, but teach learning lessons about how serious brain injuries can be.
