NS.. ex-NFL players sue league... It's starting to make sense now

Not much difference at all in the two which is the basis of my thoughts on this thread.

The climate in the NFL is changing. Players are going to have change. Some don't like it. Defenders are going to have to play smarter. The rules are there. The NFL wants to protect itself from lawsuits by doing a culture change after identifying a problem, but also because they do not want their assets getting hurt. People complain about QB wearing skirts, but really, if Brees goes down what happens to the Saints Superbowl hopes? How is Houston doing this year now? The Colts? The list goes on. The healthier you keep your players, the better games you have the more people watch your game and buy your stuff. The NFL is not dumb.

The argument for personal responsibility will not hold up in court. You have players who are injured going to the doctor. The doctor treats them so they can play. There is the implied trust of a doctor knowing what he is doing and that they will help you. Without knowing the ins and outs of the case, I'm sure that s the stand. They knew that the game was tough. They go to the doctor. Doctor makes them better. They go play and get injured worse. If I'm sitting ont he jury and that case is being presented to me, I fall on the player's side.
