I understand his point of view but he significantly undermined himself by not quitting BEFORE he got the L. Football, on a fundamental level, doesn't change from one level to another. The game just speeds up. If he had these inklings prior to, he should have simply not entered the draft and gone through the process. Discontinuing his football career after college would have made far more sense than quitting after his rookie season. In fact, I think we all know that he wouldn't have stories on ESPN or be the subject of interviews had he simply quit after college. Makes me wonder if has ulterior motives. Either way, hope he does well with whatever he pursues after football.
How could he even have known that shyt? If you read the article, you'll see that the reason he quit was a combination of his own personal experience with all the medical evidence that was coming out about the long-term consequences. The NFL (and to a lesser extent the NCAA) was purposely hiding that shyt for years, so how was he supposed to know earlier? He had inklings, but that's not the same as having the actual research that the doctors have. He made the decision to quit
the same day he was first able to meet with the concussions doctor in person.
Your "ulterior motives" shyt is bunk. You really think he could have balled out the way he did his rookie year if he just had "ulterior motives?" Kept taking all those hits knowing what it was doing to his brain? And the article goes into the ways he's refused to profit off of his revelations to this point, so if he has ulterior motives, he's certainly playing a long game.
League of Denial showed how underhanded the league is about protecting itself
They basically stonewalled the concussion researchers at every opportunity and had ESPN ignore the story as long as possible
They made the Nigerian doctor look like a crazy with doctor..dude was crying on that documentary for what they put him through
I know all big leagues/corporations are about money and their brand but the nfl is a whole nother level of greedy imo
Truth.
Yeah, how ever will white people save a multi-billion dollar industry they've loved for 60 years :unsatisfied:
You're misreading the statement, I think because you probably didn't read the story.
By saying that "football can't be saved", what he's saying is that there are no rule changes or safety procedures that will cause it to cease being a problematic sport. Of course people will still keep it going any way they can, players be fukked.
. If they had a tackle football league like the church basketball league I play in...
...I would sign up for that shyt in a second. I been wanting to put a helmet on a nicca for 13 years
Btw fukk Chris Borland
