Message: [QUOTE="JoeCollege, post: 762675, member: 189"] Mine too. For the cover up you reference, sure. But also for supporting the cash-rich league and the billionaire owners who make a habit of extorting cash strapped municipalities for billions of dollars so that millionaire players and coaches have places to play games while schools fall into disrepair, ambulances don't work, etc. But that's another subject, so I digress. I think the NFL's popularity long term is unsustainable for the reasons others mentioned- fewer kids playing in the youth levels, concern over injuries, etc. I don't feel too guilty as I agree with MAD that the players knew that there was some level of risk. I feel disappointed if the NFL withheld any knowledge or proof of danger in order to make a buck, but not too guilty. [/QUOTE]
