I agree 90% (100% would be hyperbole) that the Saints players may have been put in an untenable situation regarding bounty cooperation. Like so many things in life, there are so many factors that affect each issue. Maybe improved helmet design can factor in. Maybe rules changes or fines for coaches/front offices. Maybe improved drug testing so that the size and speed of players plateaus. I realize that some of this brain damage occurred before the 1990's steroid binge, but shrinking the players couldn't hurt right? Dom Riola recently said in an article that he wouldn't sue the NFL for his future brain damage, but how can he know how bad it can get. Is he really saying that he will be happy to shoot himself in 15 years just so his family can live happily ever after? Maybe he is. I don't know. Keep thinking, and writing.

They go into knowing risks for the players. Then again the players all go into it knowing there's risks as well. <br /><br />I'm more concerned about people who sign up to "guard" their nation only to get sent oversees to fight for a lie. The guys who knowingly sign up for a rough contact sport go into it with eyes wide open, if they don't that's on them. <br /><br />As long as they have a gutless "union", and union base, I wouldn't expect to see the owners compelled into any meaningful action. I'll be equally surprised if any of these lawsuits result in much more than higher ticket prices and a bunch of giddy lawyers walking away even wealthier. <br /><br />Glad you're back writing Neil!

People will always buy the NFL's shit because, well, it's pro football and the NFL knows it. It allows them to be the sleaziest bunch of dicks in dick county.

But doesn't the helmet tech idea at least merit an effort? If they were to find something, I have a feeling it would involve an idea no one's ever had before. I know it seems like every idea that can be had has already been had but that's the story of human history, isn't it? One day - one year, one century, one eon - something seems absurd and impossible, and the next it's a reality. You at least have to try. That's the whole point. Just saying "Nope, can't be done," isn't gong to help anyway so why not? Yeah, it'll cost money but money is one thing the NFL has, and even if the road leads to nothing but a dead end - and I'll admit, it probably will, especially given that I agree with your comment about brain meeting skull - isn't it worth at least the effort? Shouldn't the question at least be asked? Not to sound like some fake Buddhist jacking off to riddles but the answer only comes if you're willing to ask the question.Neilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16300561079216508635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3580115438716980446.post-68863552510339560422012-05-04T01:24:17.216-04:002012-05-04T01:24:17.216-04:00One little point.

Perhaps the helmet could be injected into the cranium, but that might not be practical. A more practical and immediate solution would be to take away the helmet (and padding) so that the player's lose the illusion of protection. But what sort of game would be left?Angus Osbornenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3580115438716980446.post-10106132472932660552012-05-03T22:46:41.575-04:002012-05-03T22:46:41.575-04:00Yeah, the sickest part of all this is the scapegoa...Yeah, the sickest part of all this is the scapegoating of the very dudes who this is hurting.Neilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16300561079216508635noreply@blogger.com
