With the recent increased media attention being paid to the National Football League and the controversy over the care of it's players suffering from traumatic brain injuries, many may be surprised to learn that football is not the leading sport in which brain injuries are suffered.

According to the Think First National Injury Prevention Foundation, traumatic brain injury causes 20 times more disabilities than AIDS, breast cancer, spinal cord injuries and multiple sclerosis combined. An estimated 1,165,000 children will require hospitalization following a traumatic brain injury, while one in 10 will live with moderate to severe impairments.

Federal officials say more physician practices could see bonuses from the project's second and third years.
