It was in the NFLPA's interest to grade owners poorly, just as it's in their interest to get folks fired up over this even if those folks don't have clue on how it works.
The NFLPA would love for owners to have to cover a lifetime of medical expenses for the players then they wouldn't have to provide long-term medical insurance to members of their association.
Worker's compensation is to cover wages missed at work and medical expenses directly related. It is not long-term health insurance.
Hell texas doesn't even have Worker's comp laws. What do we think about ALL the pro teams in that state?
Ohio and maybe Washington(?) are the only states left that have pro teams and still monopolize workers comp.
