Someone should keep with the Joneses

The professional athletic careers of Western New York brothers Chandler Jones, Arthur Jones and Jon Jones offer a good opportunity for a natural experiment to see whether football or MMA cause more long-term brain problems. The brothers have similar genes and upbringing but Chandler and Arthur play defensive line in the NFL while Jon competes in the light heavyweight division in the UFC, all at a very high level.

Concussions!

Football is great because it combines all the head injuries of hockey with the downtime of baseball and the importance of referees in basketball.
