SAN FRANCISCO -- Major League Baseball Commissioner Bud Selig said Thursday that the league and players union have previously discussed the idea of a blanket policy regarding domestic violence during collective bargaining, yet so far baseball has opted to handle any issue on a case-by-case basis. Eddie George Titans Jersey . "Yes, it has been discussed, because were sensitive to all issues. But Im not going to sit here and (hypothesize)," Selig said Thursday. "Fortunately we dont have that issue in front of us. But we deal with all issues." Selig, speaking at AT&T Park as part of his farewell tour before the Giants hosted Arizona, declined to address the NFLs situation surrounding the Ray Rice case and whether he thought there could be an impartial investigation. Selig said he cant remember the last domestic violence case involving a baseball player. Talks about a policy could come up again in the next collective bargaining, but Selig leaves office Jan. 25 and Rob Manfred takes over as commissioner. "We havent had any cases Im happy to say for a long, long time. I cant remember when the last time was," Selig said. "Im grateful for that. But we deal with situations as they occur. The only thing I want to say, Ive said it before and Ill say it again, we are a social institution and Im proud of our record in dealing with a myriad of subjects, and we deal with them, I think, quite effectively."

This case is about providing security and care to former NHL players who have been subjected to repeated head impacts, which the League deliberately ignored and concealed the risks of for decades, the statement read. We do not believe the NHL is entitled to complete immunity for exposing its players to devastating neurological diseases and disorders. The time has come for the NHL to take responsibility, and care for former players whom the League has depended on for its success. The NHL is facing a lawsuit from about 40 former players about its concussion policy and protocols. The players feel the League didnt do enough to educate and protect them. The League fired back by filing in a Minnesota court that the players should have put two and two together about the inherent dangers of playing a sport in which the head is targeted by pucks, sticks, hits and fists.

In documents obtained by TSN Senior Correspondent Rick Westhead in early December, lawyers for players including Joe Murphy, Bernie Nicholls and Gary Leeman rubbish the NHLs claims, saying players had no knowledge of the medical literature, and no understanding of any need to go find it because they relied on the NHL for information about player health and safety. Whether players could have accessed information in the public sphere is a red herring, the players say in court filings. By representing that the NHL was the caretaker of player safety and was responsible for researching concussions... the NHL was telling players not to look for or believe what the NHL now says the players should have researched and understood. In December, NHL commissioner Gary Bettman reiterated that the League didnt believe the lawsuits had any merit. ' ' '
