Here comes another lawsuit, because everything is the NFL's fault.

ALS is a worst nightmare scenario for me. Good Lord what a terrible way to go.

If I was diagnosed with ALS, I would start using heroin. I've heard it's really good.

Sticking up for the billionaires, eh?

When have you gotten a job from a poor person??

Just know money-grabbing bullshit when i see it.

Everything is fine while the player still has the million they made from playing football. As soon as the money is gone, the lawsuits begin.

Jesus was certainly fond of them, you prosperity gospel POS.

God forbid someone capitalize on the veritable bonanza a life spent with ALS entails.....

I don't think football causes ALS.

Maybe it's not just football, but professional sports in general. Lou Gehrig and now this, just 70 years later? That can't be a coincidence.

Good luck to the guy, though. That's a terrible disease.

70 years and two different guys get it who both played professional sports, you're right. There is no possible way it's a coincidence lol

That ain't no shit man

Unfortunately, everytime I hear ALS, I think of a bit Dennis Leary did about it.

Lou died of a disease name after him, how did he now see that coming. "Lou, buddy, there's a disease with your name ALL over it pal"....

No one cares what you think. Science suggests otherwise.
