10k claims but by how many people. If a part of the red tape their talking about is every single issue needs to be a new claim then 1 person could rack up hundreds of claims in a year. I find it hard to believe there are 10k retired NFL players all making unique claims.

He’s also not a Pippen to Lyndon B Johnson either.

most people who have heart attacks at work are covered forever via insurance? i don't think that's how it works, but maybe i'm wrong??

> there's no sense of, "Hey, maybe we did get it wrong this time, and we should think about that."

do many companies think like this? I've had tons of wrongfully denied claims via insurance and yet they still deny claims as much as they can. most of the time i don't even know what it means or why it was denied or it's just "because we said so," and so I have to pay. Companies are not in the business of giving things away, and if they were suddenly approving claims without trying to deny them first, they would make less profit.

They are right back before they started building a super team, a bunch of quality ballers that can play team basketball

Really? You're he's going to go join an established finals team again? He knows that if he wins there it's exactly like his Warriors rings and literally nobody will respect him for it right? Fuck, I really like KD but it's hard to root for him when he keeps doing this weak ass loser-mentality shit.

Phoenix is literally insane right now. Waste management open, superbowl, and we traded for KD. ALL IN THE SAME WEEK!

can the players not buy insurance? and their contracts account for the risk and short shelf life that is assumed in the league. and at least at my job, once i'm no longer employed by them, I don't have any sort of benefit plan? and i don't make millions a year.

i get it that it's sad, but nobody is going into the NFL thinking it's not going to take a toll on their body.

Imagine if Harden, Westbrook, Ibaka, and KD had been able to stay together in OKC.

You might. But I live in Chicago. And having lived in Phoenix, I known for a fact Phoenix does not have better Chinese food than Chicago.

And even if Phoenix has better Chinese food, Milwaukee has more 2021 NBA titles.
