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

I don't care if you guys know drew brees personally!!! You are very ignorant if you think these spoiled athletes should be able to sue due to health reasons attributed to playing football. They get paid very well and it is there responsibility to plan the rest of their life after the game. As I sit here typing i am doing it with one hand and i can barely use my left hand due to an IED explosion in Iraq and have to wear a hearing aid at the age of 30 for hearing loss associated with explosives. I have applied for disability through the VA dept and only get a measly 15% while I made pennies to serve my country for 10 years and was medically released, while these clowns play for about the same amount of time and make more in a year or two than i will make in my life. I love my SAINTS. They put a smile on this broken soldiers face every week, but c'mon man. You cant tell me that any person with even a pinch of intelligence doesn't know that repetitive head trauma will cause issues.

Oh and Lets kill those Dirty Turds

Listen, I'm not trying to argue with you, but the former players don't get anything if they did not play for a certain amount of time. Only under the most recent CBA did health benefits kick in for many of them. Sure, they made money when they played, but nothing even close to what guys are making right now, and certainly not enough to provide for some of the long term health issues they have.

You made a courageous choice to fight for your country at the risk of death and serious injury. I applaud you for that. They decided to play a sport. I don't think the two should be analogized in any way, shape or form, and I mean that as a compliment to you.
