no, im looking to understand how "air in a football" ruins the "integrity of the game" when, by definition posted, goodells covering up of concussions/CTE isnt an "integrity of the game" issue.


its weird.

air in footballs effects the outcome of a football game
50 year old ex-player being mentally retarded does not affect the outcome of a football game



A parallel example:
Pete Rose betting on baseball effects the outcome of a baseball game
Michael Jordan losing $5 million a year in retirement because he's a horrendous golfer does not effect the outcome of a basketball game


_____
EDIT: I may have screwed up the effect/affect grammar thing there. My bad.

junior seau was only a few years removed from playing

jovan belcher was on a roster for the chiefs when he killed his girl and himself...at the freakin stadium

there have been a TON of active guys who were effected by CTE

why do you think its only 50 year olds? why wouldnt a concussed player on the field effect the outcome on the game?

hes playing in it.

right @cerealboi ?

Do you think that if Edelman was pulled from the superbowl because he had a concussion, it could have altered the outcome of the game?

 

[redseat]

it's all the Patriots fault. I expect nothing less than loss of a first rounder and loss of 2 second rounders and a $5 million dollar fine

And by "grown up men" you mean "married men"

When Chris Henry died, they found advanced CTE, they were shocked by how advanced it was. I heard more than a few people from around that time state that they thought it was a real possibility that Chris would have never lived to see the end of his playing career with the kind of brain damage he had.

The concussions in the NFL and how they were handled is just as much the players fault as it is the leagues. How many times were players told to sit only to argue their case with the team that they were fine and are ready to play. This whiny BS the ex players is just that, complete bullshit. I can understand the players argument they need better retirement benefits, but to sit there and act as though they had no fucking clue concussions were bad for your health is BULLSHIT, the public knew this, the players knew this, the NFLPA knew this, every body knew.

no, the NFL knew and the players didn't

The players were told that concussions had no bearing on future health, and that a prior history of concussions had no relationship to the likely hood of future concussions.


Up until 2009, the NFL (and the NFL funded studies) said that retired players were retarded for other reasons, and there was no identifiable link between concussions and alzheimers.
