    Yeah, they'll make this up pretty quickly.

    I'm guessing it won't be long before most of these former players blow their settlement money and start asking for more. Shit, I forgot what I had for breakfast, gimme ten thousand dollars.

    Comes to about 170K per player before you take out the money set aside for exams, "research" and presumably lawyers %. So yeah the NFL got off hilariously easy

    Alot more than they should get....

    Thats a good example of how fucked up this country is. The only people even remotely entitled to try to sue are those who played between 1987 and 1993 when there was no CBA. All players who collectively bargained by being a union member essentially waived any right to sue. In reality, the union let the players down not the league. These are people with the same mentality of the fast food workers wanting $15 an hour. Id bet 99% of these guys just joined the suit to get a fucking check.

    Liberal bullshit.
