the obligation of the NFL to provide safety
same goes for every level from pee-wee league all the way up to the NFL. Like someone else said, he should have sued everyone from that level all the way up.
Not just the NFL.

I wish the first line in the next CBS between the NFL and the players was, "You are going to get crippled, concussed and maimed for the rest of your life. If you want the money, pussy, fame, pussy, adulation and pussy that go along with playing in the NFL that is the price you will pay. But the game is going back to the rules before the Goodell-ization of the league took effect. Your participation in this profession is voluntary. If the benefits outweigh the risk in your mind, sign here."
I love when the Kornheisers of the world start crying about player safety. News flash: the fans don't give a shite. We want to see real American football in all its violent glory. If the players don't want to risk life-altering injuries let them fall back on that college degree they were given...
Everything outlined here is a terrible idea. The NFL would lose a lot of viewers with your plan. Many fans would turn away from football if they did this.

I just love when money grabs don't work.
That makes me a racist that hates workers rights and child labor laws though:/

If any body has a right to sue for concussions, it's that poor bastard Austin Collie.

Oh how typical.... Someone that's out of work is now trying to sue for a living....
What a sad world we live in

Free agent Jahvid Best is suing the NFL, alleging the league "knew about the risks of head injuries suffered by players, but didn’t do enough to protect them."
