Football

Today I encountered another one of those situations that are totally baffling. The NFL has agreed to pay 765 million to 4,500 players who claim head injuries. This sounds reasonable assuming they can prove the injuries are due to football. Since I can’t think of any other reason why this many people, who have playing football in common, might have head injuries, I guess this makes sense. Now here is where the problem comes in. They are still playing football. Is the NFL going to set aside a sinking fund to that it ten years they can cough up another 700 million. What is the reason why they feel that there won’t be more head injuries in the future. It would be like banning head injuries from boxing. If these players really believe that playing football leads to head injuries why are they still playing. With 4,500 joining in the suit it is not a rare thing to have a head injury. It is the norm.
