Exposing the ugly truth. How financial gain overpowers player health in NFL.
Hi everybody!
Recently watched a documentary by Frontline regarding Football collisions resulting in future brain damage in NFL players. What was really interesting was the reaction of NFL to the claims and how it chooses to turn a blind eye instead of taking measures to address this nasty realisation. It seems that even in sports, money and the accumulation of profit is what really counts. Eye opening!
The documentary is called "League of Denial" and everybody can watch it for free in Youtube at the following link "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SedClkAnclk". Really one to watch.
Should the NFL take measures to address this issue? All should everything stay as it is?

I honestly can stand anything the NFL stands for anymore haven't watched in 3 plus years. But how can it be made safer, kind of a risk versus reward. I say cut there salaries to 1/100 of what there making now and use that for R and D. In my humble opinion its all about money from the players side also. I'm a fan of bull riding, you don't hear those guys bitching about PBR spending more money to keep them safe.

Same shit happens in hockey. Drugs and suicidal to cope. My pops played hockey and so many documentaries about this.
