Richard Sherman rips the NFL for 15 minutes straight
If you've got 15 minutes, this press conference is worth the watch. He pretty much voices many of the criticisms fans have been saying these past few years as well:

Pretty good list. Chris borland, Mendenhall, Jason Brown... And several more. Guys like DAT who seemed to question whether they want to keep playing. And that's not including players who retired after multiple injuries because they just couldn't stay healthy. Regardless when the best guys can't stay on the field or retire early, it makes for a substandard product |

While all his points are well taken, why aren't we continuing to excoriate the NFL for not caring about NFL players' safety and outright lying about it as well?

I'm all about the big hits, but this seems to me to be a little like 5he players want theor cake and eat it too. They've taken out big hits because of player safety because they players sued them for concussions etc.
They ba r gained the new CBA to have less practice time as well. |

I didn't say superstars are retiring early. Good players including superstars are off the field at alarming rates. Almost half of starters missed meaningful time last year. It's severely impacting the watchability of games. Half of the teams have become flat out unwatchable.

I'll listen to a guy bitch about the refs when he wasn't handed a victory by those same refs just 2 weeks back. Or when he isn't part of the defensive unit that won a SB just a few short years ago by saying "Well they aren't going to call PI on every play" and openly mugging receivers. Oh, and let's not forget the Fail Mary. Sherman and his Seahawks have arguably been the biggest beneficiaries of the NFL rules and how they are selectively enforced in the NFL over the last 5 years. The only contenders are the Pats (who the NFL also butt-****ed w/ Brady) and the Broncos....and **** the Broncos as well.
