That's fine, but to ignore the owners side of it, even as just a fan, is to willfully live in a fantasy world. There is this disconnect sometimes where fans act like players "deserve" the health issues that come with the sport because of all the money and fame, but then they act appalled when they hear stories about the legends who are killing themselves as a direct correlation to way the game was, and sometimes still is, played.
