Some people and the media forget, the NFL is a violent sport. The players know what they signed up for. It's WHY they love game. And it is what has made this sport as popular as it is.
Former and current players who are suing the NFL over concussions aren't suing the NFL because of hard legal hits and things like bounties.
They are suing the NFL because some coaches and team doctors clear a person to go back into the game after a concussion too soon. When instead they should be sitting on the sidelines letting the stars evacuate their head.
Not to mention the equipment is basically the same when average defensive players weights have blossomed to well over 300 lbs.
You think this league would have gotten this popular without mega hits by players like Dick Butkus, Mean Joe Greene and our own Dome Patrol?
Not a chance. They can't have it both ways.
Take the violence out of football and you got soccer. No one would watch.
Take the car crashes out of auto racing and no one would watch.
And hey NFL, your own network named the Saints' Dome Patrol and the number one line backing corp of all time.
Why? Because we play soft?
