There are all kinds of people who work physical labor jobs that are not millionaires that have the same problem. boo hoo.

Double Q...

That doesn't look like "due to football injuries". That looks more like "due to failures in modern medicine".

That's a nasty looking leg. Hope that dude feels better soon. Amputation might even make him feel better.

At first I thought it was about Ricky Williams. Then I was like 'even if it was', I still don't give a shit

THIS...

obligatory bring him in for a look

Only if he can lead block for dexter on reverse sweeps

He played when the Broncos offensive line was always hitting low. This is the result. He should be suing Tom Nalen and Matt Lepsis.

I feel like most normal people don't have 24 surgeries on one knee. That leg is also almost 3 inches shorter than his other leg.

"never let a crisis go to waste" -rog

That's exactly what it is.

If you read the Cincy Enquirer article, the football connection is pretty damn tenuous.

It looks a hell of a lot more like some doctors screwing up a knee replacement 15 years after the guy retired.

Because of an infection that set in after a knee surgery 15 years after he retired.

The leg wasn't shorter in 2003 and the guy retired in 1989. The leg hadn't had 24 surgeries on it in 2003.

He had some basic cleanup procedures done in the 80s (common for manual labor jobs) and when the knee degraded, he had it replaced (again, very common for manual labor jobs). A knee infection that his doctors suggest arose from a root canal then ate the bones up and yeah, a ton of surgeries followed.

This really isn't the NFL's fault any more than it's Walter Camp's fault for inventing American Football.

Is it a requirement to bring up money when talking about bad things happening to players?

Someone always brings up players making a lot of money even when its not relevant to the situation. I don't get it.
