 == Proposing edits to Prevention Efforts section == 

 Hi again. As noted above, I've been working on improving this article on behalf of the National Football League Players Association. I have some notes on the Prevention Efforts section that I'd like to present for discussion. I've reworked the section, incorporating my suggestions, but here's a breakdown of what I've changed: 

 *First, I'd like to propose deleting the following sentences from the section: 

 :""While companies related to sports have taken action in combating concussions, the rest of the country has tried to do their part as well. The country has gotten Congress to make sure that there are public-service announcements on head injuries and their detrimental effects. Also, the NFL is now meeting with the brain injuries committee to improve the situation."" 

 :These statements do not refer to any specific events or provide any new facts. They are also unsourced (there is one reference, but it links to a library login page). If any editors would like to leave the information intact, perhaps the wording and citations can be updated. 

 *Second, I'm requesting the phrase ""but the NFL Players Association ultimately blocked its use"" be removed from the sentence about the planned use of HITS in 2010. Based on the citation, the information that would support this statement was provided third-hand by an unnamed source. Since there is no verification of the NFLPA blocking the HITS system beyond rumor, I would like to suggest instead stating: ""but it was ultimately not used."" 

 *Finally, I made a few minor copy edits for clarity. The entire section with all mentioned updates appears below.
