    Story By: Gail Nobles

    But, after football, Bubba started feeling the effects of all those hits he took while playing. He had pain and headaches.

    So, Bubba and other former players sued the NFL. They said the NFL didn't tell them enough about the dangers of head injuries.

    Then, something surprising happened: Howard Cosell, a famous sportscaster who often criticized the NFL, supported Bubba and the other players.

    Cosell wasn't a lawyer, but he was a big voice and helped get the word out about the lawsuit.

    Even though Bubba died before the lawsuit was finished, it be came a big case with thousands of players. The NFL ended up paying billions of dollars to help the players with their medical problems and research.

    Bubba Smith's story shows the price athletes pay for playing sports, and how companies like the NFL should protect their players. Even someone famous like Bubba could challenge a powerful organization and make a difference, with the help of someone like Howard Cosell. This story is still important today as we think about keeping athletes safe in all sports.
