Why are there seat belt laws for people in autos? Just teach folks to drive slowly and safely and there won't be any accidents...
Same argument for helmet laws for motorcycles...
The most amazing element of the "player safety" situation today is that it is "managment" that is out front on the issue and it is the "union" that is taking a back seat. In the history of the labor movement in the US, worker safety was a top-shelf issue for unions and it was management that basically did not give a damn. Here in 2011, those positions are stood on their heads...
