Proposed KO rules....
(05-07-2018, 04:39 PM)Au165 Wrote: 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. 

I'm not ignoring their side or living in a fantasy, I simply don't care about it. I'm a fan of Football as it is, if it changes too much I simply won't be a fan anymore. I don't have unrealistic expectations of the NFL, I don't really have any expectations of the NFL. It's either something I like and want to watch or it isn't.

I don't think they deserve to be injured (I know you were just generalizing and not saying I believe that), but they do know what they signed up for, we all do. Before CTE was even a thing, there were still tons of parents that didn't want their kids playing football etc. Hell, that cliche goes back decades. We all knew playing a contact sport like this leaves a lot of people ****** up by the end of their career, but now we know how it happens and most of its effects.
