NFL Damar Hamlin - Bills & Former Pitt Player

[BiltmoreCANE]

Games is obviously over, question is cancelled or rescheduled.

 

[FuriousStyles]

Just call the game

Looks like Goodell finally got it right.

 

[Ispyin]

I’m nauseous just seeing it now.

 

[PIPO]

Is there some reason they can't just move the game to tomorrow? Would give the same interval between games as having a Sunday-Thursday arrangement.

Prayers to the young man.

Maybe if he survives and he’s going to be ok but it’s doubtful that he will survive and even if he dies, might be a situation where he will be on a machine for a while.

Likely best to suspend and if it needs to be played at end of season then that can be decided then.

Mom was in the stands

That means he's on a ventilator.

 

[Suhrthing]

Thoughts to his friends and family right now.

What would keep him from breathing on his own though? He took a good hit to the back of the head when he fell, but he had a helmet on. Hope there's no trauma to the stem.

Anoxic brain injury following cardiac arrest

Looks like Goodell finally got it right.

Nope, he initially gave them 5 minutes to warm up after the ambulance left the field. The head coaches said **** no

 

[Highline17]

Craziest thing I think I’ve ever seen occur on a football field, Terrifying moment.

 

[Tru C]

He is 24, in supreme condition as a pro athlete. He’s gotta have a chance, right?

 

[TemplarCane]

Let’s not be critical of the game and studio TV crews. Rough situation. I thought they handled it professionally.

 

[AtlAtty]

Not a common occurrence, but this happens more than we think in Little League & HS baseball.

It does and there has been discussion about whether baseball players should wear a shirt which incorporates a heart pad. As we can imagine, the discussion will start again. And maybe should.
