SeaShells21 Posted September 30, 2022 Report Share Posted September 30, 2022 I don’t even know where to begin with this. There are so many parties at fault there and it is sickening to witness the well-being of someone’s life being neglected and placed in jeopardy for game. 🙏🏻 This is beyond heartbreaking “Tua Tagovailoa left Thursday’s primetime showdown against the Cincinnati Bengals with a head and neck injury that forced him to be stretchered off the field and taken to a local hospital. It was the second time in five days Tagovailoa was forced out of a game thanks to symptoms listed on the NFL’s concussion protocol. The third-year quarterback left Week 3’s win over the Buffalo Bills after a shove from linebacker Matt Milano forced his head to snap into the turf at Hard Rock Stadium. Tagovailoa appeared to shake his head as if trying to regain his thoughts, then stumbled and eventually had to be propped up by his offensive linemen before exiting the game. He suffered what was originally classified as a head injury but later explained away as a back injury after he returned to the field following halftime. In all, he missed just three offensive snaps.” Miami Dolphins vs. Buffalo Bills | Sunday - IMG_6936.MOV Miami Dolphins vs. Cincinnati Bengals | Tonight - IMG_6934.MOV 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Champa Posted September 30, 2022 Report Share Posted September 30, 2022 Should have never been on the field. No way he was near 100 percent and ready to go after stumbling around with his "back injury" from the previous game. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way he was near 100 percent and ready to go after stumbling around with his "back injury" from the previous game. Exactly. He could not even walk by himself. I did just hear a report from our local 10:00 news that he has movement in his extremities, so thank god for that news but incidents like these shouldn’t even exist in a sport that’s already so dangerous. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t even believe that should be considered after a second serious head injury, let alone allowing him to travel on a plane. He needs to be monitored in Cincinnati and adequately tested as to not have lasting effects from this concussion. There is so much poor judgement going on. It makes you ponder just how often injuries are blown off snd overlooked 🙁 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reggid Posted September 30, 2022 Report Share Posted September 30, 2022 Glad Tua is going to be okay, but quick question for all you sister-humping, SEC-chanting inbreds: When both Burrow and Tua are playing in the same game, which one do you root for? Or do you just uncontrollably splooge in your pants for the whole 60 minutes? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldTerrapin Posted September 30, 2022 Report Share Posted September 30, 2022 You can't fool around with these brain injuries. Last October Mervo (Baltimore Tech School) had a star WR pass away from a serous brain injury he sustained vs Dunbar a month earlier. Essentially the brain injury caused his vital organs to shut down. This same team/school had a player gunned down a couple weeks or so ago. Crazy Very sad story.. https://www.wbal.com/article/537032/21/mervo-hs-football-player-dies-from-injuries-sustained-in-september-game https://dailyvoice.com/maryland/baltimore/news/popular-football-player-idd-as-victim-of-mervo-high-school-shooting/842616/ 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's comical how deluded some people are. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm saying that *every doctor that evaluated him* said so. What makes you insane is your insistence that you know more than the doctors who were there. It's actually your ego stroking that allows you to say this while at the time time claiming that I'm full of myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For your information there has been growing opposition from many about those games including the NFLPA. Nothing knee jerk about it. Besides this whole thing is dominating sports radio this AM so it's not just a a few posters on here. Maybe you should call in to some of them and tell them how stupid they are because ole AtticusFinch knows everything. lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
