[QUOTE="HardRightEdge, post: 517477"] I should have known that was a leading question. Retired players have been seeking improved disability benefits for years. Ditka is one of those old-timers leading the effort on behalf of his colleagues. These issues have been part of union negotiations. The NFL subverted the collecting bargaining process by lying, not to put too fine a point on it. Further, individual claims for benefits by some older retirees with brain disorders have been denied based on the league's knowingly false assertions (according their own data) that concussions do not cause permanent brain damage. The NFL didn't settle the first suit of several for $750 million to make it go away. They settled because they feared it could have been much worse. It's quite the mess. [/QUOTE]
