[QUOTE="lunkerslayer, post: 75720, member: 217"] [url]https://www.yahoo.com/sports/news/hall-of-famer-paul-hornung-suffering-from-dementia-sues-helmet-maker-riddell-004825142.html[/url] Hall of Famer Paul Hornung, suffering from dementia, sues helmet maker Riddell Pro Football Hall of Famer Paul Hornung, who spent his entire career with the Green Bay Packers, is suing helmet maker Riddell Inc., according to Associated Press, alleging that the helmets he wore his his career did not protect him from brain injury According to the lawsuit, Hornung is suffering from dementia. He incurred multiple concussions in his career as a do-it-all player for the Packers, mostly as a running back. A Riddell spokesman declined comment, saying, “It’s our policy not to comment on pending litigation.” Riddell, which started making football helmets out of plastic in 1939, makes helmets for all levels of football, from Pop Warner to the NFL. Now the can of worms of lawsuits for football players, but as far as I know they can only detect brain damage from multiple head injuries after the brain has been removed. I am glad their is more awareness when it comes to detecting potential head trauma but to sue a company that was providing the best possible equipment at the time is crazy. I can see heavy metal head bangers sueing Metallica for making music that has caused that person to become injured. [/QUOTE]
