What I think I'll remember as much as anything is that he ended his career against the Redskins. I think it was a 4th down run and he didn't get the first and then next thing you know that's it. His career is done

Then why did you bring it up?
IMO I don't care if it is a 16 or 18 game season, they are adults they can choice not to play football.
But to say 18 game regular season sans to pre-season games is the same as a 16 game season is false advertisement.
Also IMO this topic is very relative to WP as obviously the abuse his body took in football had a profound effect on his life.
