Typical NFL tactics. When not extorting money from communities, they try to avoid culpability for their own employees.

This sounds just like the US dept of veterans affairs denying that there was any correlation of agent orange and health problems of the VietNam vets.

Where are the Unions? I thought they also were to protect their members. I think they should be looked into also.

What a crock. I don't need a doctor to tell me some of the things I subject my body to aren't good for it long term.

what about colleges? My son took an illegal, blindsided hit from an opposing player,was knocked out cold, and carried off the field. The trainers told me, if it were up to them, they would report it to the ncaa governing body, the coach did nothing....My son sat out a week and was back starting the next game. Many college coaches do not care about their kids either. It is a business, not unlike the NFL.
