No name = Fake news
Sorry, ghetto rats. Your Liberal-Leftist plantation masters are going to jerk your big paydays away from you.
No room for the NFL in a feminized, Socialist America.
It would be interesting to see how they try to go out about pursuing a case like that. They don’t name the former player, so it’s uncertain how long he actually played in the NFL. In the meantime, he probably played football for 10-15 years at other levels before he ever signed his first NFL contract. How do you assign liability in a case like that?
59 to 61 is pretty early onset for dementia. Wonder how they differentiate between CTE and various forms of dementia, especially in the living?
If I am an enterprising prosecutor in a non-NFL jurisdiction and this player lived in my jurisdiction I might be tempted to start a RICO investigation. Just imagine the howling from the pro-Kap people if the NFL were found guilty and PUT OUT OF BUSINESS!
It would make a great movie . . . maybe have Lizzie Warren play the Brockovich role as she struggles between the world of Pajama Boy Feminism and Gang Banger NFL tough guys, both of whom want to vote for Bernie! As she gets further into the case and sees Jacksonville owner Shahid Khan has led the coverup of the medical studies and it freaks her out to find her three favorite interest groups have conspired over the years to protect their cash flow.
In the end Warren reenacts the final scenes in Quadrophenia, driving her electric-powered moped over the cliffs of the Grand Canyon, while holding onto Susan Sarandon’s urn. The scene fades out to the music of the Star Spangled Banner as we shift to the site of the last NFL game where as the clock is running out in front of 50 people in the stands both teams get together for a final kneeling . . . holding up a sign that says
“Thanks a LOT Cap . . . a**hole . . . “
If the NFL dies. It dies.
The NFL already agreed to set aside $1 Billion for CTE and or other neurological problems in April 2016 for 20,000 past, current and future players.
All jocks have degenerative brain disease as a normal condition
They’re jocks!!!
BAN THE NFL!
Until then:
BOYCOTT THE NFL!!!
Isn’t it funny that after all these years nothing like this NEVER existed. Yet it came to be discovered some 6-8 years ago. Fast forward to today and still we have yet to hear the most traumatic of all sports with respect to repeated brain trauma is boxing and this is never spoken of? Why is that?
Ping
The question I have is what is the incidence of CTE in the NFL compared to CTE in other sports or professions?
Also, while it is possible that the trauma occurred while in the NFL, how much occurred in college or younger?
Furthermore, might the NFL have less of an issue if the helmets were more like the old leather helmets, so that the defense would have to tackle without using their heads, and that running backs would not duck when taking hits, similar to what happens in rugby?
