Nice injection of facts, PONY.
Who here works in a job where years later the industry raises your retirement benes? (assuming you have any; those of us in high tech get nada)
And his point about drawing benes early is a good one. If you tap Soc Security or your 401K early on, you'll have less money. Football players are very very very fortunate money wise compared to 99% of us. That being said I would strongly support extra health benes for old retirees as football DOES destroy the body. Fix that problem and a major improvement would be made.

Unfortunately, all you hear in the media is how the NFL is screwing the older players. Most people would think the NFL doesn't give older players ANY money based on the coverage the media gives it.

I agree, facts would show the WHOLE picture.
 
the cost would be roughly $57 million per year for the NFLPA, and $43 million per year for the league.
Actually, I meant roughly $35 million per year for the NFLPA, $25 million for the league.
