NFL NFL Discussion: New Year

[fingercuffs]

The NFL gave us no updates for an hour when they should have called it off as soon as it happened.

I'm fed up that we don't know about the game but more worried about him and his family.

Just passed $1M. Some background, he started this two years ago before being drafted to raise money for kids from his community for Christmas. Hence the low initial goal.

He’s left it active since then and it’s been verified as legit.

Closing in on $2M. Awesome

And seriously, @Revolver are they not obliged to abide by the family's wishes?

hoping he’s ok…that was tough to watch

 

[Dude Incredible]

Yeah there were some clips of him going helmet to helmet with a 49ers boy and Hamlin did it in a way that’s not kosher in 2022. This is totally unrelated though.

To me it was almost like he finished the play then something happened with his chest and he just dropped to the ground. It didn’t feel like the hit caused the injury directly. Almost like it was the bodies response several seconds after he got up.

This one was so haunting. I think because it felt like a playoff game. I was all buckled in and ready to go. Then the second it happens it just snaps you out and it’s like wait, what happened? At first I was confused. Then the camera cuts back and you can see the captains and the players sobbing, praying, etc. when they announced the cpr my heart sank and for a second I was stunned. Like holy shit did we just watch someone die? 9 minutes is a long ass time. I don’t care how you slice it. That’s scary to watch someone pumped like that for so long. If that was me there watching someone I’d think there’s no way after more than a minute or two that someone’s gonna be ok. Not that I’m a Dr or anything. Just common sense. Like I can hold my breathe for maybe 60-100 seconds before my vision gets blurry and I half to breathe or blackout. So 9 minutes? That’s an eternity.

The number of times we’ve taken injury commercial breaks and we come back and they’re ALWAYS fine. To come back and see everyone in the circle. That was really hard.

I really hope this guys ok. It sounds like he was a really charitable guy. It was just so sudden and extreme. And I think the atmosphere along with the nature of how it happened just made it feel different.

Thoughts are with him and his family

This.

 

[heavy_hands]

The camaraderie between the two teams' players and coaches was a class act.
Yeah you have a family member at 24 years old playing in a pretty prolific game have to have CPR in the middle of the field, I just couldn't imagine.

Much love, @Zebra Cheeks

put everything in perspective, how insignificant the game is…a few tears fell I’m not gonna lie

Oh I've shed a few during Arsenal and England football games, no one needed to be revived during those other than pride.

It seems he's been put to sleep for now. I don't know if that's.a medically induced coma. If it is, then that's hopefully a good sign to give him a break for a while.

Dr Vin Gupta took a little shot at internet Dr for saying NFL needs to report on his condition. He said nothing the NFL's doing is unusual. He said they don't want to miss report his condition as they need to see how he responds. He says he is intubation is as they need to see how his heart responds before they take him off intubation.

 

[fingercuffs]

Doctors have said no more updates tonight.

 

[Revolver]

Statement by the bills organization.

Seeing doctors talk about how he probably got hit in the chest at the precise time where it can lead to a disruption of the heart rhythm that leads to cardiac arrest.
Needs to be a strong impact during the upstroke of the T wave at the end of the heart cycle, a window of only 10-30 milliseconds. Sort of a freak accident, yet most common in sports.

Amazing.

Bolt up the almighty chargers beat the St.louis rams. 31-10

This was one possible explanation given……

 

[fingercuffs]

I don't get why people think sports people are their property?
The NFL said he was critical, that he couldn't breathe without apparatus, he was put to medical indu

It was a pretty hard hit.
I've already seen it happen and then a replay. Rather not see it again, but even without a heart condition not good.

 

[Poatan Power]

everyone asking for updates needs to shut the fuck up. (not here, I mean people on social media I see demanding)

it's a CPR case. 24 hours of hypothermia. paralysis. sedation. brain assessment with additional CT/MRI. neurology, cardiology consults and re-assessments. none of this happens minute to minute, it's measured in dozens of hours. the only update tonight would be his death. it isn't the NFL's place to be bugging the fuck out of the ICU nursing staff for updates when they're actively working on saving someone's life with minute by minute interventions. and, again, the updates mean nothing for now. there's nothing to know.

everyone talking about this commotio cordis is also being slightly ridiculous. there is less than 30 cases per year diagnosed and it is largely hypothetical in nature. and they're diagnosed via autopsy with questionable accuracy

 

[Poatan Power]

This was one possible explanation given……

the only good thing about that video is that he said we typically only think we'll see this in textbooks. yeah. because that's all we do see it in because it happens less than once per state per year.

there are tons of causes of this type of event that are 100,000x more likely.
just saying

I would say this is more common with taking a baseball or puck to the chest?

So is the helmet hitting him what caused this? I don't really want to watch the video if it cause it's just fucked up.

Hope the dudes OK....
