Ponderable

Naturally, a post from this proven hypocrite deserves no more than a quick overview. I have done just that. Didn’t bother with the brunt of his typical copy and paste jobs from his usuals gang of idiotic “news” re-tellers that twist and ignore facts and dwell on irrelevant tangents the deplorables feed on like vultures over a dead possum in an open field.

NFL is the pinnacle of a series of interacted but separate sports programs designed to teach intet surf youngsters, mostly boys to men, the game of football.

Science has conclusively shown in recent years that concussions of varying degree upon the human brain has a debilitating and lifelong adverse affect on the development of an array of mental health conditions and diseases, most notably CTE, or Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy, to an increasingly alarming ratio of football players at any point in their lives, most notably after they end their football careers at whatever levels they achieve, and unfortunately those who acquire the condition often die early, or have significant mental impairment issues for the remainder of their lives.

If football were the equivalent to rhythm gymnastics, I suspect rhythm gymnastics would cease to be a sport or activity in the majority of nations of the world. But it is not.

No. Football is a billion dollar sports dynasty most of us dearly love to watch, and as youth, play to whatever level one feels motivated to join. Flag football, Pop Warner, etc.

Helmet reengineerimg is ongoing. Rules of head to head tackles are working to address the risks.

The fact that the leadership of the NFL knew years earlier of CTE and its effect on a players yet did nothing, just as tobacco executives knew for decades the increase of cancers to lungs, throats, bronchial tissues, lips, tongues, etc. yet did nothing is a testiment to unregulated capitalism.

Former NFL players, determined by their years in the league, deserve health care paid entirely by the NFL, for all reasonably related medical conditions stemming from brain injuries.

Being in or out of the HOF is irrelevant. Included in the assessment of the degree of free mental heath care based on time in the NFL need factor in the 8-10 years each of these former NFL players devoted to college (4 years), high school (usually 4 years) and documented full tackle football before high school.

Those earlier years were all designed by each player that earned selection to the NFL to one day be an NFL player.

They needed science to tell them that head to head collisions are bad for the brain? You smart people crack me up.

What about applying for disability through SSA?

Sure, if your solution is to deny the cause of the condition, and the profitable organizations that created the conditions, and instead simply suggest another underfunded national program that would have no meaningful impact to those affected, sure, the SSA is a great way to sweep the problem under a neighbor’s rug.

Perfect over-reaction to an opinion on a specific issue. Assuming “all” refers to every American. My earlier opinion was clearly about NFL football players, not the entire populous of Americans. Two groups of extraordinarily different population figures has been ignored by either ignorance or intent, yet wrong either way.

Is medicare not available to ex-football players that meet the requirements? What about disability from SSA? What about the crown jewel, Affordable Care Act? Are NFL football players not a part of the populous?

So you’ve scoured all of my posts and found narcissistant comments I’ve made about being “smart”. Please cite just three or less of such posts, and you’ll be proven truthful. Not citing any such posts, or refusing to respond to your allegation simply demonstrates your own opinion about the quality of my posts, be they signs of ignorant knowledge, or intelligence that threatens you, and shows you to be a coward.

Coward is a fairly common word I’m confident does not contribute to your obvious fear of conversing with people you perceive as better educated and/or more in tune with both history and current events.

What does "smarmy" mean?

The NFL holds billions in reserve accounts, compounding thousands if not tens of thousands of dollars in interest and stock market gains via a panoply of investment advisory diversified investment strategies.

They simply ought to provide cost free mental health to their players and former players, on a scale rational to the timing of each player’s NFL career.

Citing various health insurance records plans is a simple tactical diversionary move no one is falling for. Sorry.

Again, was science to tell them that head to head collisions are bad for the brain? Stingley was paralyzed by Jack Tatum nearly 40 years ago.

I hate to resort to this, given the level of disingenuousness by so many posters here. Assuming your “friendly” emoji was genuine re deceased football players, then a whole hearted thank you.

I’m more than aware of that awful incident. I don’t think medical science at that time had any empirical data that would lend itself to NFL rules that might have given pause to Tatum in the moments before he tackled Stingley.

Good grief. You watch the video of helmet to helmet collision and say to yourself there is not enough empirical data?
