Defector | The last good website.The NFLPA Player Survey That Owners Hate Was Never Going To Stay Secret
Hermey GSince their $765 million #Concussion #Settlement in 2013, #RogerGoodell and 32 owners have denied 85% of claims filed by retired #NFL players being diagnosed and treated for #dementia by their own doctors. The #NFL is rejecting the AMA standard definition of dementia in place of their own, raising thresholds in order to deny #claims.

The NFL concussion settlement’s broken promises
A ‘landmark’ settlement promised payouts for suffering players. But loopholes, aggressive reviews and a failed doctors network have led to denials for hundreds of players diagnosed with dementia, including many who died with CTE, a Washington Post investigation found.
Fuck #RodgerGoodell and fuck the #NFLowners for placing a #playoff game on #Peacock for premium subscribers only. They have turned their backs on poor viewers who have supported the #NFL all year.

"I'm just going to say it: It's almost like #collusion Allen said, according to the Adam Hill of the Las Vegas Review-Journal.
"They decided the running back position is one where the productivity is only for a short period of time, & instead of looking at each & every one individually, they have decided as a group that they're not going to pay them."
bs2> The Bob McNairs and John Elways of the world hate the idea of a freethinking, openly anti-racist player more than they love the idea of winning a Super Bowl. That damns this league as much as hiding concussion data and ignoring instances of violence against women. It’s more evidence that the league’s moral compass points in one direction.. toward remaking this country in their political image.. where billionaires make.. us.. salute on demand.

> ... the owners treat these franchises like toys. They get taxpayers to fund obscenely overpriced arenas that double as private palaces and that always drain the communities that can afford it least. Then they threaten to leave town unless they get whatever they want.
> Which now includes a huge give-back from the players and numerous other concessions...
