NFL worried over upcoming Will Smith movie "Concussion"
Will Smith's new movie "Concussion" is set to be released Christmas 2015. The movie is "a look at how American football players suffer from major head injuries and life-long debilitating problems as a result of repeated concussions and efforts by the National Football League to deny it."

Team owners & the NFL are concerned with public perceptions and have met to discuss how to deal with & respond to the film.
Maybe they can get his boss to fire him like they did for Simmons
They should get Wells to prepare a report.
The report will show that concussions don't happen in football, that if they did, the NFL would have a cure and if you challenge Wells' report by filing an appeal, they will come up with some trumped up factually incorrect allegation that assassinate's your character.
Fuck the NFL.
Great snark, but Will Smith IS the boss...
...or Olbermann
The NFL is responsible for Bill Simmons being fired? Probably the best thing the NFL has done in its history.
...And what the hell is that smell?!?
Still use that one. Generally with my kids because it makes them laugh. Thank you, Will Smith.

It's not like you don't know the risks or what you're signing up for.
High-risk, high-reward. NFL players don't have to play football, they can use their college degrees to earn a living.
I think the NFL should worry more about deflated balls than concussions.
are just as bad a steroids.
That's what I thought too. Then I realized it's been more than 20 years since he broke onto the scene.
Age is a bitch.
Debuted in 1990.
Sigh. Me old.
Think he may have been dressed "in character" for a press appearance regarding the movie.

Literally just had this discussion last night randomly with a friend. We wondered why someone else didn't pick it up. Guessing the NFL pressured ESPN to not sell the rights, but that's just a guess.
Can they just fire Goodell already....
And he is a bad actor.
