LIVIGNO, Italy -- Canadian snowboarder Mark McMorris said he's "coming around and starting to feel like myself again" after suffering a concussion and pelvic injuries during a nasty fall in training on the big air course before the Milan Cortina Olympics started. In an interview with The Associated Press on Thursday, McMorris said he lost consciousness when he fell eight days earlier during training for the contest that opened the action at Livigno Snow Park last week.

Turns out the sci-fi filmmakers got it backwards. All those '70s and '80s dystopias like "Rollerball," "The Running Man," "Death Race 2000," imagined futures in which sports were full of gadgets and gimmicks like armored cars, rocket-powered motorbikes, and electrified arenas. In reality, we got the opposite - the padding's gone, and the high-tech monitoring equipment is nowhere to be found.

The guidelines for dealing with possible concussion operate under the tagline of 'if in doubt sit them out'. It means that if a player has suspected concussion at any level of football "they must be immediately removed from the pitch, whether in training or match play". The FA states that the reason for immediate action in removing players from the pitch is because treatment delays "could risk incomplete recovery of the brain".
