Retired Players Struggle to Receive Disability From the League

Seeing and reading things like this makes me somewhat ashamed to support the NFL. I used to cheer for Eddie "Boo" Williams and to see him in this situation makes my heart break. While I know that this could be anyone's fate, I think it especially hurts knowing the guy took so many hard hits. I realize they knew what they were getting into and all that but still, like the NFL should be giving this guy 10K a month for life so he doesn't end up homeless or worse. The NFL makes BILLIONS and they should take care of these foot soldiers.

I still watch the games for entertainment but can’t take the NFL seriously and I stopped buying NFL merch a good while ago…..It’s an evil empire there is no question, the billionaire owners for the most part are evil, narcissistic aholes, look no further than the “commissioner” they keep re-upping, just a puppet to do their bidding…..which is likely what that job will entail from here on out….it’s sad what its become…..
