Ex-NFL ball boy reveals guilt over what he saw

[tweeterhawk]

And the role he suspects he played in players suffering from concussions after hard hits. As a ball boy in 2003, he was instructed to carry small bottles of smelling salts. If dazed after a hard hit, a player would come over and take a whiff of the smelling salts, supposedly to help him regain his senses. TV cameras were instructed not to show players getting help from the salts.

Ugly story to read.
