Re: NFL, union to aid retired players.
I've never understood why Pro athletes would want a labor union as it has been known in this country. They could hire a law firm to do everything the NFLPA does and probably for less. I suppose Federal Law more or less compells them to have a union in order to bargain collectively, enjoy certain protections, etc. But I mean why create a monster like Upshaw when you could have an expendable lawyer do the same thing. Get tired of the lawyer, hire a new one. Upshaw will never go away.
