Will Smith wants to give America a Concussion for Christmas
Christmas is a time of year for warmth and nostalgia, so with that in mind, this December, Sony Pictures is bringing us Concussion. The behind-the-scenes football drama harks back to a simpler time, when fans of America’s favorite sport didn’t have to think about domestic violence, child abuse, coaches paying bounties for injuring other players, or deflated balls. Yes, it was a more innocent era, when fans could root, root, root, for the home team while only worrying about their favorite players suffering brain-damage-inducing head injuries. And performance-enhancing drugs. And rape. And dog fighting. Come to think of it, there was plenty of domestic violence in the league back then, too.
