Maxine Waters demands NFL reimburse her husband for injuries

Ok, so Maxine Waters' husband played pro ball for 6 years in the 60s. Now they're finding out that those NFL players who were hit repeatedly (and who isn't) have higher likelihood of developing diseases like dementia and other cognitive diseases. So apparently no one knew when they signed those multi million dollar contracts that they might be injured. So Maxine wants her husband to be remunerated now...no mention if he has any diseases. This is what Congress has devolved to...self-interests and bullying on the part of Congress to get stuff that benefits themselves.
She said the NFL needs to recognize that injuries will always result from professional football, no matter the rules or the equipment.

"The question is, what are you going to do? Are you going to pay for it? Are you going to pay the injured players and their families for the injuries that they have received helping you to be a multibillion operation?" she asked. "I know that you do everything you can to hold onto those profits. And I think the responsibility of this Congress to take a look at the antitrust exemption that you have, and in my estimation, take it away."
