I didn't see the movie but it has been an ongoing problem in the NFL.

I don't expect much will change, as it is always about the money to be made. Some players have decided the risk is not worth it and have quit early in their careers.

With the concussion and PED problems, I am amazed at how much risk one is willing to take to have the possibility of an extravangent lifestyle, with big money being thrown around.

Sadly, most players don't even make the five year mark when their pensions kick in. It's a brutal sport but I have to admit, I am a big football fan.

Hopefully, they will get better at recognizing concussion symptons better and make rules to stop players from being permanently disabled.
