This sounds like it will be a major problem for us if this bill gets passed.

Why in the world would LA lawmakers want this passed?

You don't honestly believe that limited worker's comp is really going to create a problem?

The only players who would think twice about this issue would be guys on minimum salary; these are guys who will take a contract from just about any team that offers one.

And yet again, Brees feels compelled to jump on his soap box.

I hope it does get passed. They don't deserve preferential treatment. As for Drew Brees, he was in California previously touting that they players should be treated equally as everyone else with regards to WC. Now that LA wants to pass this bill, he thinks they should get more than others.

This is why the saints got punish for that fake bounty stuff cause of this stuff. If we push this law Godell will come up with something else maybe take all of our free agent money and all our draft picks. The nfl is one evil powerfull organization and when you go against it you get burn we are going to get burn watch.

Now as I read the passage it saying that some states/teams don't want to pay as much worker's comp if the 16 game season is not going on. I understand that but if the player is hurt doing football related stuff like preseason, otas, mini camps, playoffs they should still be paid the same. You should only not be paid worker's comp if you where to get hurt playing basketball, car accident, etc.... basically anything non football associated. If we was injured off the job we would not get worker's comp.
