“The NFL informed Carl Eller’s legal team Friday that the NFL Players Association has taken $500 million that could have benefited retirees, the Hall of Fame defensive end told the Sun-Times.”
As if it isn’t bad enough that the league as an entity doesn’t care about players unless they’re on the field, and that teams/owners actively screw with former players and their benefits (even current players if they’re injured), but once again the players themselves (allegedly) turn their back on their brethren, the NFL Alumni.
Pitiful. Absofreakinglutely pitiful, by all parties.
