  1. Then again better hurry the Settlement is about out of Cash with 660M of the 1B obligated. So only 340M left in the money grab and then we can stop hearing about it. Then maybe these players should go back to their PARENTS to float their Bills on this topic
  2. Yep I played Big Time youth sports, and College Ball as well NOT once was I FORCED to play by my parents. It was ALWAYS my choice.
  3. Who FORCED them to play? Their parents? Yep the enhancement to the Return to play guidelines
  4. So the NFL should have to shoulder the brunt of 8 years? When he only played for them for 6?
  5. First Concussion Guidelines in 1997 (Essentially the First Gen Concussion Protocol) March 1997 NEW RETURN-TO-PLAY GUIDELINES The guidelines from the American Academy of Neurology say that repetitive concussions can cause brain damage, and suggest that players be removed from the game if they lose consciousness or exhibit any concussion symptoms 15 minutes post-injury. “Repeated concussions can cause cumulative brain injury in an individual over months or years,” the report warns.
  6. Would still get ALOT more than any other person that has to lose his career in 2 years
  7. so in 2006 ok. McClain started NFL in 2007 so he knew. And the 10s of 1000s since then still know and take the risk
  8. OK Cool, point is the PLAYERs know and knew well earlier than 2007. And yet 1000's STILL make the choice to play and bank money. So knowing that WHY should I really feel sympathetic again?
  9. Now when did the NFL warn of this.... HMMMM 1997. So want to keep saying these players didnt know? More likely they DIDNT Care. March 1997 NEW RETURN-TO-PLAY GUIDELINES The guidelines from the American Academy of Neurology say that repetitive concussions can cause brain damage, and suggest that players be removed from the game if they lose consciousness or exhibit any concussion symptoms 15 minutes post-injury. “Repeated concussions can cause cumulative brain injury in an individual over months or years,” the report warns. They are, if they want to say thy didnt know and play for free thy are Idiots. Also in 2002 was when CTE was mentioned. McClain started playing in the NFL in 2007.
  10. Absolutely I do because they WERE NOT justly Compensated for their work and have ZERO benefit package for their work
  11. I care it is sad he struggles (there does that make them feel better) BUT it was his choice, no reason to cry for more. I care MORE about that HS player that has issues and GETS NADA I care MORE about that College player that ISN'T compensated and his body and head used up. This is about McClain and his 11M he made and all the nice benefits that he still makes.
  12. And for those that think the NFL is callous here may I ask Why? Here is their POST career Benefits? https://www.playsmartplaysafe.com/resource/nfl-benefits/ What are the Post Career Benefits for an NCAA player (and their Billions they make)? What about the Post Career Benefits of a HS Player?
  13. And a CHOICE that Compensated them at a Higher level than any other person could think about being compensated at. So yep DONT Care, they could have walked away like Luck, Willis, Sanders etc etc etc. Would I have booed them and hammered them.... NOPE. Why Because it was THEIR CHOICE. Just like it is their choice to KEEP playing
  14. No all these players OBVIOUSLY still being lied too, because why would they keep playing??? OOO YEAH they are MAKING MILLIONS
  15. Yeah alot more issues out there than worrying about a Millionaire now trying to get more money from a sport he made millions from
  16. June 2007 - The NFL holds a medical conference on concussions. August 14, 2007 - The NFL formalizes new concussion guidelines which include a telephone hotline to report when a player is being forced to play contrary to medical advice. Now tell me how McClain (started in the NFL in 2007) was deceived? Cool I got a head shot in Buffalo watching a game. Guess the NFL owes me as a Fan a settelment
  17. No According to Some The lawsuit for the players in the 60-70s Mean that these new players didnt know
  18. Y because I dont GIVE TWO ***** that these players are experiencing AGE. And Issues that ANY person with ANY Common Sense could see?
  19. Cool here is a RECENT one.. LET me HIGHLIGHT the KEY Study: Concussions Aren't the Link to CTE New research on chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) concludes that it's not concussions that cause the condition, but repeated traumatic brain injuries (TBIs)—the kind experienced by more people than just those involved in contact sports. Authors of the study also call for more clarity when it comes to concussion—which they describe as a syndrome—versus TBI, a tissue-damaging event that can happen with or without concussion.
  20. So I should SUE the US Government right? My Head hurts.... Who knew FIGHTING Wars and taking Head Shots would cause this. THEY HID IT FROM ME
