Re: Around the NFL: Training Camp edition

What amazes me the most is there is no repercussion to the NFL backing out of the promised $30 million dollar donation to the NIH to fund concussion/CTE research in 2012. In 2012 the NFL made a huge press conference and announced player safety and research was #1 priority and they were donating $30 million to NIH as an unrestricted gift with no strings attached for research and helping to create a test for CTE in living patients, which currently does not exist. Well naturally the NIH hired the top CTE experts in the world including the Boston University team that discovered CTE. NFL tried to pressure NIH to remove the Boston University team so the donation was pulled. The funding had to come from US tax payers, so we had to pay the bill. Stay classy NFL. Since us fans are so hard up for NFL football nobody cares and the NFL has no price to pay for pulling this shit. They could practically commit murder and nobody would really care as long as we get our NFL football in the fall. |
