Interesting Article on NFL Players & Dementia

IF the NFLPA is really about supporting the players, they will make sure better coverage of dementia is a significant part of the next CBA.

I agree they need to. Current day players and owners, and everyone else associated with the NFL are making so much money because of the popularity and fame the league has. This popularity and fame was created by these older former players and they truly deserve to at the very least be taken care of. If the NFLPA doesn't do something to really help these guys then I hope when its their turn to collect in retirement the NFLPA also sticks up their middle finger to these current guys!
