This subject is going to become a massive thorn in the side of tackle football.

In the NFL's case, there's little doubt that in my mind that there has probably been decisions made by franchises/coaches that would border on criminal negligence in any other workplace. And you probably don't have to go back very far to find them. I do believe that teams are going to come around and that concussions will be handled more carefully in the future, but can they survive their past decisions?

I also feel like players are going to have to shoulder a degree of the responsibility. They need to realize that these things are sometimes the price you pay for the career choice. If you don't want to face the risk of future brain damage, get an office job and slog through life like the rest of us.
