And the $1.65B they have paid out is just a fraction of what should have been paid. The #NFL litigates individual claims as if they were lawsuit.

Insurance industry is waking up to the costs of #concussion & #CTE. They will no longer insure the AFL. Pro sports knows the cost, which is why they fight. NFL settlement has already paid $1.65B, when they thought it'd only be $765M total. More CTE than expected... Not good.

Nice ruling by Judge Wolson. It looks like #Riddell is going to have to face a new round of brain injury claims.

I can Assure you, after watching my dad suffer… it’s The Inconvenient Truth! #EndCTE

My take on Giants RB Cam Skattebo saying CTE is not real? Disrespectful. He's since apologized calling it a “tasteless joke,” but as someone who knows the stories & the families of the almost 400 NFL players diagnosed with CTE, there is nothing funny about it. Skattebo has been given a gift by these families - the gift of knowledge. He now knows he's at risk for CTE. Those who built the NFL did not. He benefits from their support of CTE research. We need football players like him to stop denying the science and join us in the fight to end the disease so we can find a cure in their lifetime.

Commitment is rare.

On Saturday, one of the members of the PAC, Roxanne McCray volunteered at the PA golf tournament at the Fairmont Hotel in San Diego, CA last Saturday. Thank you @RoxyGordon16 for representing all of us so well at the event.

The official NFL Player Advocacy Committee (PAC) is here to help retired players who need assistance with their NFL Concussion Settlement. Our committee works to ensure that players understand their rights and have access to the resources available through the settlement.

For lawyers, this is a watershed moment. For other stakeholders, it is no longer possible to say “we don’t even know if sports caused this.”

NO MORE PLAYING GAMES: Breakthrough analysis reveals repetitive head impacts are a DEFINITIVE CAUSE of #CTE. Sports industry must acknowledge cause-and-effect & get to work protecting their athletes, especially children. Release, study & a thread: concussionfoundation.org/news/press-rel…

Judge Wolson, who has replaced Judge Brody in the #NFL Concussion settlement has issued his first order, calling for a status conference with the Parties' lead counsel.
English
#FYI It appears Judge Brody has retired. I just saw this reassignment from the Judicial Panel for Multidistrict Litigation.

@APTeacher1754 @TheWillHobson @washingtonpost He is a Pulitzer Prize winning investigative reporter on sports. Not a game analyst. He broke many stories about wrong doing such as those mentioned in his thread and many more.

Some personal news: I’m among today’s @washingtonpost layoffs. It was a dream 11-year run as an investigative reporter focused on sports—making billionaires tremble (or at least mildly annoying them and their lawyers.)
A few highlights from the ride: 🧵
English
@TheWillHobson @washingtonpost @PostBaron @AlbertSamaha @Sam4TR Huge loss for the Post and its readers. They just ruined a great newspaper by letting talent like you and many of the other people they've let go.
English
@washingtonpost @PostBaron @AlbertSamaha @Sam4TR Working at The Washington Post, as an investigative reporter, was my dream job. I first read 'All the President’s Men' at 12. (I was a nerd.) And it has been every bit as fun, exhilarating and rewarding as I imagined. I’m not sure what’s next, but I’m excited to find out. Onward.

Leading off the Global CTE Summit is Dr. Ann McKee, co-founder & director of the BU CTE Center and the UNITE Brain Bank.
Dr. McKee gives an overview of what we've learned about CTE pathology from nearly 1,800 Legacy Donors whose loved ones have donated their brain to research.

@AmyLewisHealth @BrettFavre @NFLPA @NFLPAFmrPlayers @WomenoftheNFL @SheillaDingus @KennyJenkins31 @NFLObjectors A regular player can be a danger to his family and show 100% signs of TBI caused by RHI and be denied his #NFL Concussion Settlement. The warning signs could be there, and it's meanless to the multi-billion dollar #NFL machine. @SheillaDingus @Lacey__Leonard @AmyDashTV

In the NFL Concussion Settlement if you don't fit into a narrow box that wasn't adequately explained
RoxyMcCray@RoxyGordon16
Unfortunately, the faith of these retired players suffering from TBI lies in the hands of the court and Special Masters who have no idea what life is like for the families affected by TBI casued by Repeated Head Injury because the #NFL want what is right! @WomenoftheNFL @TheWillHobson @annmckeemd @rolandsmartin @stephgosk @AP
