I'm very ok with people making their own decisions in regards to employment. I'm not ok with employers lying about the danger of a position and then acting surprised when the dangers become known to the general public. In today's NFL we now see many players playing football knowing the risks, but we are now seeing some players walking away from the game and making what they feel are informed decisions about the pros and cons of continuing onward.
Yes some don't value the generational changing wealth. Which is fine but to tell another they can't is wrong. And whether or not the NFL his the info. On every helmet you get there is a warning of the potential side effects of using this equipment and what it can do to your head. Every coach is required to go over this in detail. That's been my whole life, well before any of this concussion protocol nonsense.
To say any player doesn't know the risk is bs. The concussion lawsuit was nonsense as well.
