Dick_Cheney Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 1 minute ago, Thrivefourfive said: The real problem here with Tua is that he’s tiny and SLOW. He got thrown about like a rag doll, again. And that will continue to happen for the remainder of whatever career he can squeeze out of his very limited physique. The NFL has big string men who wish to do harm, and…. I’ve made my point. This could have happened to Allen all the same. It's happened to big QBs before. The problem is the way this whole week has been handled and the concussion on Sunday. There has to be devastating consequences for this. I don't know if I've ever been this upset about an in game injury before. The circumstances are an actual worst case medical scenario for the human brain. I'm so disgusted with Dolphins fans and the Dolphins staff. I wouldn't give a ***** if we were going to lose however many games in a row if Josh had had his brain scrambled so bad last week that he was walking like he was doing the stanky leg and didn't know where he was on the field. This is worse than Deflategate. It's damn near criminal. 2 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Level one is the highest level of a trauma center. Surgeons of various specialities are in house 24/7. Most do surgeries around the clock have specific teams for emergencies. Smaller hospitals that aren't trauma centers usually stop surgeries at a certain time at night and have a call team incase an non-trauma emergency comes in. i swear twobillsdrive has the some of the most well researched and knowledgeable posters with all things football and other topics, well done sir 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It WILL be interesting to see who says what and when. This is going to be a HUGE thing. 7 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The night the warehouse burned down most of the locals turned out to watch and drink beer at the bar on the corner. I was there drinking!

Saint Doug Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 5 minutes ago, TheFunPolice said: I'm so pissed for Tua the human being. WTF... The people who let him go back out there Sunday and suit up tonight ought to be ashamed of themselves. This is true. But Tua is also an adult. It’s his responsibility to be truthful with the medical staff, assuming Miami coaching staff didn’t fully make up the “back” or “ankle” being hurt. It came from somewhere. That said, it’s up to the coaching staff to know when he’s not being fully truthful. The whole thing should be thoroughly investigated. Disgusted this all has been risked for a game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The arms are bent in toward the body and the wrists and fingers are bent and held on the chest. This type of posturing is a sign of severe damage in the brain. People who have this condition should get medical attention right away.

I know posters are upset with the TV crews but for me the true responsibility lies with the NFL. I'm sure the NFLPA has the lawyers ready to go.
