Daily Dose of BS Nov 21 football players

There are certain risks with every job right? When you work as a professional football player you would think that you would know that you are getting beat up every week by a brick wall. The men of the NFL are huge muscle bound guys whose job it is, is to stop you, by using their bodies. When you run at another man at great speeds and they are running at you at great speed, you are going to crash. As an NFL player you get paid a great wage, a wage that most of us only dream of. As a practice squad player the minimum is 6k a week and as a one year NFL player the salary is over 400 thousand dollars. With men the size of trucks running at you, you are going to get hurt. I have an issue with the players who are going after the teams and the NFL because they suffered this that or the other. They knew the risks and got paid handsomely. I have tinnitus which is ringing of my ears, I’m guessing from headphones too high early in radio career. Does this give me a right to go back and sue former employers? Is the paper cut that you got at work last week going to get you paid? With a job there are risks.
