Why can't (or could not have?) NFL payers get there own insurance? Everyone else does. And along the same lines why not add in their contracts a disclaimer stating you may be severely injured to include later mental health issues? Hell I have to sign something saying I wont sue jumpzone if my kid breaks something.

Its completely unenforceable. Not worth the paper it’s written on.

You're going to drop the NFL because some retired players are threatening to no longer attend the Hall of Fame induction ceremonies?

You must really love the city of Canton.

Thing about athletes; they are shitty bitches as people. When their careers are over, they need the spotlight. Just enjoy them while they are playing, and tune them out when they are washed up.

I haven't found any reasons to stop watching before this thread, so we'll need to backtrack and start there.

You want a bunch of old dudes I've never met and their opinions to dictate whether you or I watch football? Why in the world would that matter?

My employer covers my health insurance. Sure it most likely means they pay me less, and probably not a proportionate amount. But it is covered.

nah

But, I agree with your take on former players.

These former players need to be responsible for their own healthcare and bills.

If the players as a whole decide that healthcare should be perpetual after playing days are over, the Players association should be the group that foots the bill.

The NFL has no obligation to the players outside of the collective bargaining agreement they had at the time of the players' service.

You are an extreamly sensitive snowflake is that bothers you. Of all the reasons...just say you like more feminine things like shopping or watch the Kardashians. No need to make silly excuses of why you don't like football.

Couldn't you haters do a little more ACTUALLY dropping the NFL and a little less TALKING about it?

The rest of us would rilly appreciate it!

Bye, snowflake.

I'll just continue to watch the games and tune out the bullshite like I have for 35 years because it's easy to understand that the only reason the bullshite is there is so useless people like Greenberg, Smith, Lebetard, and Cowherd can make a living.

Probably because they are nearly uninsurable due to having played football. Why would an insurer willingly sign up someone they know will not be profitable? You TVM could put a little bit of thought into things before you post.
