Another lawsuit against the NFL; This may damage the league beyond repair

Our sources tell us that 75 former NFL players have or will file a lawsuit against the league for concussions. Their claim is that the league as known about the ill effects of concussions since the 1920's and as failed to protect players from life long injuries. NFL spokesman Greg Aiello has publicly stated that he has not seen such lawsuit, but will defend it if it happens. Starting in 2010 the league has made a huge effort to protect players against the effects of concussions from sitting players out games to suspending and fining players for hits that can cause concussions. This lawsuit could sink the league. Could you imagine how much the settlement would be?
