There are other occupations that it is known that the risks of that occupation is greater than others and the wage is more because of that. Police and firemen perform jobs that (just as football players) they expose themselves to potential harm. The police and fireman are cared for finicaly when they become disabled as a result of injury on the job.

If Pear had worked for a company that knowingly had exposed him to a chemical substance that caused his medical problems would that co. be liable? I would say yes. The NFL knowingly exposes it players to long term medical issues every game and every practice shouldn't they step up and take care of the problem they have created?.

So you agree that compensation should be granted, but for one group but not the other. I was a public servant and a professionsl football player( in Canada) and it would not make a differesnce to me if I was hurt on either job. If your hurt your hurt the pain is the same. The group that is seeking compensation is not the group who was making millions.
