Mooseontheloose posted:does he show the hit and collapse, cause not sure I can handle that. The hit, yes. It's a tackle youve seen 1000 times before. He doesn't show the collapse. Basically, in layman's terms, this doctor thinks that this is a rare cardiac event in which he took a blunt force trauma to the chest at the exact right (or wrong) moment in the electrical wave of the heartbeat or something like that. Basically the freakest of freak occurrences.

Vitals back to normal is a really good thing? Yes? I mean, obviously it's not *bad*, but is that significant to his condition?

Nothing will happen, but if there was any justice, heads would roll over the attempt to restart the game after five minutes

abelwingnut posted:i mean, just end sportscenter at this point? put some reruns of...something more uplifting? a nice 30-for-30? there's no reason they should be putting him out there at this point. He's a journalist covering a story. One that is actually important in the grand scheme of things, instead of showing highlights and talking about playoff games and trades and whatever else. He probably wants to be covering this. Even Cronkite had trouble keeping it together on occasion

abelwingnut posted:i'm fairly convinced these two teams have already agreed to a tie. i think the bigger question, especially for buffalo, is these owners talking to the owners of the teams they play next. both teams are already in the playoffs. i would imagine both would be trying to agree to ties to take another week off or something. I have no idea what all the playoff qualifying scenarios are, but the only way I could see the NFL allowing that is if there wasn't a bubble team that wouldn't be hurt by a Buffalo/Cincy tie.

Applebees Appetizer posted:Was watching last night when it happened. Knew something was seriously wrong when the medical staff were frantic, knew it wasn't a typical injury. And like with Earnhardt, it initially looked routine (as routine as things like that go, anyway) like you've seen a thousand times before. I was watching the night Owen Hart died in 1999 and I have the same feeling now that I did then. Something about this tells me it's grim. I hope to gently caress I'm wrong.

Apples McGrind posted:my concerns were more about the NFL handling the aftermath and canceling the game. I know the medical personnel basically did everything they could and probably handled it in the best possible way. Yeah the NFL sucks rear end, but I can't find a single thing to criticize in how they've handled the situation

pseudodragon posted:If the refs were thinking straight, the thought process could have been something like "I don't really want to play, but we should talk to the coaches/league about it first. But if we do play, the players can't come in cold, so let's get that taken care of while we figure things out because that's the only thing I can control right now." I'm going to hell for laughing at your typo, but I agree with your overall sentiment. You wrote "poo poo" instead of "shot"

Eifert Posting posted:The players were obviously gearing up to play the game. There's no reason for either sideline to behave the way they did if they hadn't been told the game was going to resume. Do the on field officials have the authority to call the game? If not, I don't know what else they were supposed to do.

It makes perfect sense that people who have recently been traumatized resort to things that are familiar and comfortable to cope with their feelings. There's really no playbook on what to do in a situation like this. They probably just needed to do something. Anything.

Adun posted:Yeah I mean the only real prism to look through actions by the league office is what maximizes revenue for the NFL with the least risk to the value of the brand. I would think there’s absolutely no way the league office is looking at that situation and telling people to continue the game given the potential long term harm to “the shield” from having to broadcast a player has died while the game he died in is still being played and broadcast. Hell, WWE survived (and even thrived) after one of their wrestlers literally died in the ring during a Pay Per View and they continued the show.

Do we know for a fact it hasn't worsened? Is there a statement? I hope you're right, but we don't know for sure.

Techno Remix posted:Why does it feel so weird to be so affected by this? Like, I’ve seen people get hurt before, even pretty badly, but this is really sticking in my mind and I can’t get it out. Maybe because it seemed like something so innocuous. It seemed routine, and he's a young, physically fit athlete. People getting hurt in bad accidents makes sense to our brains. But something like this makes no sense. A young, healthy man shouldn't go into cardiac arrest doing something he's done 1000 times before. If it happened to him it could happen to me. At least that's where I'm at. I didn't and still don't care about NASCAR, but the seemingly minor looking crash that killed Dale Earnhardt affected me in a way similar to this.

Sash! posted:What's odd to me is that Dale didn't affect me at all. Car racing is dangerous business and people get killed all the time. One weekend at San Marino killed more people on field than the NFL. I guess it was because of all the insane crashes we've seen where someone walked away, and a seemingly minor wreck was deadly.

Narcissus1916 posted:I don't want to make this about me or anyone other than Hamlin, but I'm getting flashbacks to the pandemic. At one point I had multiple family members and friends in hospitals, fighting for their life. They all survived (some with lung damage) but its the waiting that can be so brutal for loved ones. We're waiting for a binary update when the truth is that the body is still so complex that modern medicine can only tell us so much. Waiting is hell. My dad battled esophageal cancer for 5+ years. He had numerous surgeries for metastisized tumors, complications, etc. He spent 2 1/2 months in the hospital recovering from sepsis. He had dozens of emergency trips to the hospital. We often had to wait for news, and it was hell. I sympathize with the family. Time has to be crawling by right now.
