Football And Brain Damage: 'The Fans Have Responsibility' (VIDEO)

WATCH: Do Football Fans Create Demand For Brain Damage?

HuffPost Live host Mike Sacks tackled the issue of traumatic brain injuries in football Thursday, discussing who bears responsibility for the troubling recent trend in the game.

"The fans have responsibility in the same way that any of us as consumers have responsibility for a practice hazardous to people's health," sportswriter Patrick Hruby said. "If there was no market demand for football, people wouldn't be giving each other brain damage in order to provide football."

Hruby and Sacks were joined by law professor Roger Abrams, fan Stan Phelps and former player and coach Tim Reynolds.
