It seems to me that this is something that the NFL can resolve out-of-court with $$$ and new safety rules. But it will be interesting to see how this plays out. There are some potentially large ramifications for all levels of the game at play here.

I pretty much agree with your post, although I do think how much money was devoted to the retirees in the CBA was a big step forward. As far as the lawsuit goes, depending on how much evidence the retirees have, it will probably be settled out-of-court, since the NFL probably doesn't want to take its' chances with a judge.
