The other thing is, out of his injuries, how many are from the event and how many are from wear and tear of being a linesman for 20 odd years. Also seems weird that the government is piling on trying to get medical bills paid from the event.
Seems like a weird precedent to try to set. Would that not open up every person at fault that injured someone in a fight/accident/etc that the government would try to recoup costs? Or any play where a player is suspended and he injuries another player that requires any medical services (ambulance, hospital etc). Seems kind of weird to me, where do you draw the line.
i guess some outside the box thinking for a new stream of revenue.
