re: Why is football such a target in the media?

So that absolves the NFL from any responsiblity?

yes. the CBA literally does this as well by superseding all previous agreements

All parties can't be responsible?

the players want a union to negotiate a CBA on their behalf and by doing this they created a system where the NFL isn't liable

you can't create a collective bargaining arrangement and then cry foul when you negotiate a bad deal and blame your bad negotiations on the other side being better at it. that literally makes no sense, especially when reminded that the players created the adversarial system in the first place
