I remember them misreporting Kobe's death

As in they claimed he died once before he actually died?

 

[Frank Costanza]

aortic impact

I remember them misreporting the cause, think they said car instead of helicopter

 

[gamblinjunkie]

Don’t make me sound like the bad guy. It’s a rough sport, there’s a possibility of this happening on every single play. I hope he’s not dead but if he is there’s nothing you can do about it. People paid good money for those tickets, people pay good money for those jerseys those caps those beers and those hotdogs. Get your ass back on the field and play the game.

you’re making yourself sound like the bad guy or at least a selfish guy. Idc what people paid for tix, beers. This shit is life or death and you can’t put no amount of money on that. Go to bed

 

[Frank Costanza]

weird that you're not getting the positive at this point.

damn

 

[askias]

Are you booger McFarland

Just stating the obvious. The guy has a pulse, but is most likely brain dead. His poor mom has to decide about pulling the plug on her 24 year old son. You think guys are going back on the field after that?

 

[B.A.R.]

Gurv was first about Kobe and I totally thought he was messing around since Kyle hates Kobe.

Woah is his real name not Alex

 

[~Utah]

This is very similar to eriksen

That’s a bit different than being wrong about someone dying or not.

 

[Frank Costanza]

anyway, on subject

this game is done tonight. i'm sure

 

[B.A.R.]

Fellas, let's keep things semi clean in here.

Everyone has their own thoughts. Let's not getting into pissing matches. I know it's prone to happen in situations like this, but better to ignore sometimes.

 

[Teapot9]

He either had undiagnosed HCM, a traumatic arrhythmia or aortic root rupture

[Frank Costanza]

the players are done for tonight

You obviously are completely clueless with a statement like this. Nothing factual at all in this.

 

[Gandolf]

Would guess the decision whether or not to resume would be in the Bills court. They don't have to play.

 

[Frank Costanza]

He either had undiagnosed HCM, a traumatic arrhythmia or aortic root rupture

Or direct trauma

The Shield decides.

 

[RetroVK]

Just hope he somehow makes it

 

[Frank Costanza]

Just hope he somehow makes it

yup

 

[cogenman]

crazy situation

 

[B.A.R.]

Gandy said it ..50+ years since a death on field...

1971, Chuck Hughes -- Detroit Lions.

 

[jedi ninja]

The Shield decides.

After speaking with both teams is what they just said though. The Bills are not playing football tonight.

 

[rambler882]

Scary especially bc it seemed so status quo of a play

 

[gamblinjunkie]

What's AED?

Defibrillator to shock your heart to get it beating regularly

 

[Gandolf]

The Shield decides.

Goodell isn't going to tell them to get their butts on the field if they don't want to.

No, your comment was posted 5 seconds before booger said it verbatim so the timing was just weird

 

[dunedan]

This is eerily reminiscent of Hank Gathers when he collapsed at a LMU home game

 

[Inspekdah]

Or direct trauma

You’re more right than assuming it’s a pre existing issue that was randomly brought on by a violent hit. Not like he collapsed in warm ups

 

[booksbestfriend]

Guys..drop a prayer for him and his family if you're into that.

 

[Frank Costanza]

This is eerily reminiscent of Hank Gathers when he collapsed at a LMU home game

yup

 

[jedi ninja]

Chest impact / aortic issue.

Surprised this doesn't happen more often.

Well there is one relatively new denominator to think about.

 

[VirginiaCavs]

Scary especially bc it seemed so status quo of a play

Makes you think about what these elite competitors lay on the line

 

[Frank Costanza]

This is eerily reminiscent of Hank Gathers when he collapsed at a LMU home game

yes, he just dropped. difference was that there was impact in this case.

 

[Inspekdah]

And somehow the dip shit refs in the Tulane game didn’t call that hit targeting. This game is violent as fuck even after all the changes

 

[Frank Costanza]

Been around for awhile.

 

[Inspekdah]

Right this isn’t a random collapse

My MIL a DR

Says either a trach issue or Maybe commotio cordis

Don’t know really what either means

 

[emg2525]

Not a doctor, but from a doctor…. Potential Commotio Cordis

 

[jedi ninja]

Been around for awhile.

2 years, yes.

 

[Frank Costanza]

Violence wasn't really the big issue in this one. Peripheral.

 

[Frank Costanza]

2 years, yes.

yup

My MIL is a DR and said this. What is it?

 

[B.A.R.]

Interesting.
Reading up on this right now.

Makes some sense for sure.

 

[Frank Costanza]

Too much quiet with this thing.

May have passed.

Hope I'm wrong. I often am.

 

[jedi ninja]

yup

But not one person in the “media” will bring it up. That’s worse than any blowback you’d get…who else could it happen to next?

 

[emg2525]

Commotio cordis - Wikipedia

[Gandolf]

If he has a pulse already I think he's going to make it. They got to him quick enough to keep blood flow/oxygen going to the brain. If reports are correct I'm optimistic as to his prospects.

Please be right.
