Life in the NFL

The New York Times has a piece today on some of the lives being experienced for men after they leave the NFL. 

This same thing is happening to some military vets in Special Forces.  Recon Marines, SEALS, Rangers, and others are having the same kind of injuries due to over use and extreme conditions.

For the NFL -- I think some of this information is being kept away from players and fans.  These young men need to know what waits for them on the other side of football.  I have heard stories about the life expectancy of NFL players.  It is not good at all. Linemen in particular do not live long.

How much is playing with your kids worth to you?

In the end -- save.  Save. Save. Rainy days come for all of us.
