Football General Talk

Crazy…reminded me of the 1990 Loyola Marymount game where Hank Gathers collapsed after his dunk. They were playing Portland in the West Coast tourney for a play-in to the NCAA. He just slowed down and dropped, right in front of Erik Spoelstta the Miami Heat coach who was the point guard for Portland (then). Marfan syndrome, just never know.

In truth, he has no idea what caused the injury; he hasn't examined the patient. Young athletes are suffering cardiac injuries at an alarming rate.

Saw this morning a charity he founded before he started pro went from $60k to $3 mil overnight on mostly small donations.
I hope the best for this young man.

The NFL said the game would not be resumed this week. Both teams play their last game Sunday, so it sounds like they won’t finish it. The Bills and Chiefs are tied for the best record in the AFC. I wonder how they will sort that out? Home field advantage for the AFC title game is a big deal.

Of course he has some idea of what happened. There's high quality video of the mechanism of injury. If only you knew the number of patient reports that begin with, "Patient was found down for an unknown amount of time...." While it's unfortunate for all involved, this will be a teaching point in resuscitation classes for some time to come.

I don't root for the Cowboys (or the Packers).

 

[Khunter]

@seeth07 Rightly or wrongly, America’s team is the Dallas Cowboys not the packers.

Rooting for the unlikely scenario they snag the #1 seed today.

Big D @ the Commanders is the very definition of a trap game for America’s Team. Would not surprise me one bit to see them trip over their junk. Hope not.

I’m not a fan, but I do like Aaron Rogers. Personally, the only fan I am is a Yankee’s fan, since 1957. Not necessary but I said it anyway.

Brady and Rodgers are both seasoned head coaches and refs, but I like Rodgers better.
