Seau Lawyer: Family Won’t Disrupt Hall of Fame Ceremonies

The former All-Pro – who committed destruction in 2012 at 43’s era – was later identified to become linked to injuries encountered being the family of and Seau, a person is involved with lawsuit contrary to the category.

The Pro Football Hall of Fame moved shortly Friday to clarify why Junior Seau’s daughter gained’t converse reside on the late linebacker’s induction subsequent month.

After last year’s filibuster free-for-all, which featured too many speeches that went on for far too long, the Hall of Fame has spent plenty of time communicating the preferred duration to this year’s new entries. “My dialog was exclusively about him”.

Basically what all of this is saying is that Seau’s family still won’t be allowed to speak at the ceremony, and that the NFL is unwilling to bend its apparently rock solid policy, even under the circumstances of Seau’s death.

Living inductees are typically introduced on stage by friends in emotional or household speeches that follow the speech of an official video produced by the tv network of the National Football League.

“Reports published Friday incorrectly stated that the Hall of Fame was “not allowing” or “barring” the Seau family from speaking at the Enshrinement on Saturday, August 8″.

If the Pro Football Hall of Fame is a museum and not just a marketing device, it has an obligation to present the whole of the sport’s history and not just the prettier parts. Maybe it’s time to change the stupid policy. As is the case each year at the Enshrinement, all presenters will share their reflections in videos.

The Hall has been in positive communication with Sydney, her mother, and the executor of Junior’s estate who each have communicated to us that they understand and fully support the Hall’s policy. However, we are now learning that they are still dissatisfied. “Fans from across the country will travel to Canton, Ohio, the birthplace of the NFL, and pay tribute to eight “Heroes of the Game” as Jerome Bettis, Tim Brown, Charles Haley, Bill Polian, Junior Seau, Will Shields, Mick Tingelhoff, and Ron Wolf – officially join the most exclusive club in all of sports and have their legacies forever preserved in Canton”. All the league has done has drawn attention to the fact that Seau, who shot and killed himself, had CTE – likely the result of a concussion-addled NFL career.
