Hellhound Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 As a lacrosse official, one of the things they have is focus on now besides head injuries is the possibility of sudden cardiac arrest from blows to the chest. They’ve even updated goalie chest protectors and player shoulder pads to try and protect the chest more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is zero reason to continue play even if news comes that he is stabilized. That’s a traumatic experience for those players. Send them home.

Chris- Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 Hamlin is local and a Pitt alum, he's a good guy; always active in the community and was a positive role model around campus. Very sad situation. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This MD does a good job explaining what he thinks happened, and pretty much what you said (and sort of what I thought) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silentbob Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 They need Roger Goodell out of their first. The guy has been a complete joke for them and is way way way too slow to react to anything that might look bad/negative on or towards the league. The local Buffalo NBC station news broke into regular programming for some time and is only now just rejoining Quantum Leap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thewhyteboar Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 Goodell is just a figurehead for the owners, he does whatever they want. Most of the league’s problems are due to the owners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biggie Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 Can’t believe they asked these guys to continue to play. They were absolutely in shambles. Crying and praying. When it comes to caring for the players and their safety it’s all bullshit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CastlevaniaNut18 Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 The NFL is awful. I like football, but I’ve barely watched this season. I just feel more uncomfortable with the sport as time goes on. I really hope this guy makes a full recovery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ridiculous as they are running for cover from the “take five minutes to warm up” line that was said by somebody, reported from the booth, but is now an orphan. “Who said that? No, wasn’t us. No idea where it came from. That makes us look like we just want to feed the machine for one of the biggest games of the year. We’re not like that.” 🙄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TUFKAK Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 Commotio cordis is has a very low survival rate but he’s absolutely in the best demographic to pull through this, barring some underlying non diagnosed cardiac dysfunction that is.

Guest Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 Hamlin’s condition seems unchanged at this time. The game is not being completed this week and they aren’t adjusting the week 18 schedule. Will be curious what they do if the outcome of the game would ultimately decide seeding for the playoff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 Also, I made the mistake of reading the replies to the NFL tweet about not resuming the game. Covid conspiracy freaks “NFL rigging it so the Bills stay in the 1 seed” freaks ”What about the people who bought tickets?” freaks “I’m in the fantasy football playoffs so what about my team?” freaks The internet was a huge mistake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just feel more uncomfortable with the sport as time goes on. I really hope this guy makes a full recovery. I've felt that too as time goes on. My son did football for one season when he was 7 years old. He had players on his team up to 8 or maybe 9 yrs old. One of the kids on my son's team got his knee dislocated in a game. Another kid on a different team got his leg broken. My wife and I said fuck this and pulled him out. Can't look at real football the same. Kids and teens shouldn't be tearing up their bodies for that ultra slim chance at the NFL. I still enjoy watching football from time to time. But when those big hits come it makes me wince a lot more than it used to. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
