Spot on. I was getting ready to write a post with the tobacco analogy when I saw your post. Once the real long term effects of tobacco were made public, the liability went up exponentially. In the early 70s you could get a pack of cigarettes for 30 cents and a carton (10 pack) of cigarettes for about $2 and now a pack, not a carton in Kansas goes for about $7 in Kansas and $14 in New York mostly because of the liability and cost to the government to deal with the consequences.
Now that the long term effects of football are being exposed the liability will go through the roof and most programs will end up shutting down. Frankly, I don’t see football as we know it to be around in 10-20 years.
