If he was unable to properly judge his state of readiness due to neglect or malpractice by the team and it's doctors, does your opinion change?

Dave Babytch broke his ankle. He was told he could play on it. No one put a gun to his head to play, but he was told he could play.

He later won his lawsuit against the team doctor.
