ms. bell, talking about soccer, and -- there's three -- just like tony romo, you were slammed down to the ground. that's part of the deal; right? you slammed the guy down and his head hit the ground, which is often hard. there's so many ways in football to see how a revenges hit, just a mean player who is famous for that and loves it and gets endorsements because of it, commercial endorsements. soccer is extremely brutal, exhausting on a huge field where there's usually, what, one, two, flee or four goals scored, and that's it, so in thinking about it myself and i've watched a lot of it basically because of that 1980 victory, it's heading the ball, or because i don't think that you're -- you probably are slammed down to the ground or tripped up, a lot of tripping up, deliberate tripping up. does that mean the head hits? i don't know. what are some of the ways if ranked number three by dr. kutcher, what are some of the ways concussions come about in soccer other than heading the ball, and if it

school girl soccer players sustain concussions each year, so what we're going to do is hear from ms. bell and our other witnesses today who i should name. dr. jeffrey kutcher. you're not in my opening script, so i have to do that, and you'll forgive me. university of michigan districter of neurosport. and dr. ann mckee, director of neuropathology core bu alzheimer's disease center, i guess that's boston university, and dr. mike oliver, director of the national operating committee on standards for athletic equipment. we welcome all of you, and i'll just close right there and ask if the chairman of the subcommittee would wish to say something because he's been just terrific on the subject and also the ranking member. go ahead. >> well, thank you, mr. chairman, again for us holding this very important hearing this afternoon. as a former player, it's something i'm interested in, but also, you know, there's so many moms and dads and coaches and players all across the country, you know, that are also very interested and probably should be more interested than what they realize, and i think that

ms. be saharsky? >> i want to start with justice cay can began's -- kagan's questions. it is true that contact's visits in bell are different than a person coming in that there might be a greater opportunity for planning. but as one of the justices pointed out, this was less of an opportunity to get contraband. the inmate was wearing a one-piece zip-up jumper, and he seemed watched the entire time. the contraband situation in this case, at intake, the person does have an opportunity even if they are not self-reporting knowing that they're going to be arrested. protesters, for example, who decide deliberately to get arrested, they might be stopped by the police, they might have a gum or contraband in their car and think, hey, i'm going to put that on my perp, i just need to get it somewhere and then potentially they have the contraband with them. also the process of going from the arrest, point of arrest to the general jail population is not a quick one. the person typically goes, for example, to a metropolitan police department. that's what happens here. and the person would mix potentially there in a holding

bell rings, that is telling you precisely that there is nothing happening.
