yeah, but can you figure it out once you've already had the repeated regular head trauma? maybe the head trauma damaged the players' brains to the point that they couldn't think rationally any more.

Now you're just being silly

there is just such a moving target in this instance

a. which team said it? or was it the NFL? which management group/ownership of that team said it? or was it the NFL?

b. who was this said to? when?

c. where is the direct reliance on this alleged lie? was it one group of players in the 70s? 80s? how could a player coming into the league in the 90s make a claim?

really? studies have proven that repeated hits from football cause brain damage. At what point does that damage cause the players to lose the ability to discern a lie from, what they believe is, a medical professional? You may think I'm being silly, but I would be shocked if it doesn't come up during one of the trials.

You have players who are so messed up that they kill themselves, but you want to tell me they still have the cognitive ability to overrule a medical professional?
