Former NFL players speak out about race-based concussion damage assessment | Nightline

1. You knew all about this before you went to the NFL was all about money money. Now it’s racist oh my God
   What are the differences . What are the black norms. Pay the man ?

2. Okay i'm confused because isn't there a huge problem with doctors giving less attention to african americans especially with covid. And also, don't black women have a higher chance of heart failure? That's why they ask for race i'm pretty sure and that's what this system is for I really don't understand how that is being used to say that black people are less intelligent? That's really got nothing to do with it.

3. And football & boxing is the safest job someone can CHOOSE to do for a living

4. I would never trust Caucasian doctors diagnosing any physical, mental, or emotional pain in Black ppl. Stop seeking care from people you know think less of you!

5. Game over

6. USA! USA! USA! USA! (sarcastic)
   we live in such a bubble of LIES in the U.S. its fuckin crazy when u actually wake up and start paying attention.

7. They need to give him what rightly belongs to him my prayer is that you will what belongs to you. It should not matter what color anyone is , You deserve it just as much as the next person.

8. Don't worry about that bro I got you I didn't conversate you just hit me up in the morning don't worry about your doctor's notes or whatever cuz I had to do the same thing with my brother and Hernandez and I plus I know and understand about it because my Grandma had it old time mission but she was born with it so I can understand what you going through her name was Nancy starting Robinson. She died November the 1st 2015.

9. Race Norming? That's the most outrageous thing I've ever heard!!! I hope he gets the help he needs and continues to fight for what's right!

10. It’s crazy they did an interview on this then 2 months later, Former 49ers Philip Adams did what he done in Rock Hill SC… 🙄

11. Maybe all black players, their families and their supporters should sit out a month of games. I would be interested in re results…

12. Your enemies rarely have mercy on you or treat you fairly. Wake up "so called black man".

13. WHY is there an adjustment for race?? That's terrible.

14. Tragedy waiting to happen. Cant support the NFL anymore. Shame. Such a large part of my childhood

15. And why isn't this sport banned??? My kid will NE.VER play

16. "Race Norming"????? I'm sorry, what ????? Making assumptions about a patient based on education, sure, but the color of their skin ??? Nah, fnck you, that's crap.

17. Gotta see the movie “Concussion”

18. this is sad every "American family" , loves to watch it with there family but when something likes this happen you don't hear about it , just sad. Quotations around American family because most do , but I don't.

19. you would think that this day and age, especially in the NFL that race wouldn't be an issue. But it seems to me that race plays a bigger and bigger part of our deteriorating society. It's absolutely sad. Somethings gotta change.

20. Why don't they start scanning players brains upon starting in the NFL? That way they have a proper comparison later on in life if needed. If I was a player, I would have this done anyways.

21. This just screams medical apartheid

22. +Bit Stream : Okay Carass 🏞️ Mountain 🗻 Male….!!! WS is "ALIVE* and well.

23. Every aspect of this "WICKED" Satanic, Demonic WS Country United Sankes 🐍🐍🐍 of Amerikkka is about keeping the Modern-day Descendants of The Ancient Children of Yisrael down on the bottom of Society but not just here in "BABYLON" but Worldwide where we where scattered Worldwide as Bondmen and Bondwomen Deuteronomy 28:68 as "SLAVES"…this Wicked System of WS is Worldwide against the Truth Bloodline DNA 🧬 Seed/Offspring/Descendants the so called Afrikan Diaspora True and Real Bloodline DNA 🧬 Descendants of Abraham, Issac and Jacob/Yisrael. So the Hebrew Yisraelite Brother Football player at the end stop being blind to Reality…..!!! Why wooden systemic football being the sports industry as well huh Bro….!?!?

24. Imagine playing a contact sport, getting hired and get millions of pounds, then complaining

25. Sounds like CTE to me, but I guess black players don't get CTE (a result of many blows to the head) where the NFL is concerned.

26. How interesting that this came out recently, just two months before today's NFL murder story. Since he killed a white doctor, you have to wonder if the suspect had resentments about insurance issues around his two concussions. "Life after football is not fun." That's a major statement, considering that football is a game that's so much "fun" for so many people.
