It's ridiculous how everyone ascribes this douchebag's personality to getting in the head like he's the first player to ever get concussed.

 

Sometimes an a-hole is just an a-hole. Don't need to overthink it.

Yes but in this case, maybe whatever part of his brain was acting as a governor on his a-holishess was the part that Vontaze killed?

Speaking of Netflix documentaries, their new docuseries about assassinated president James Garfield (Death by Lightning Strikes) was excellent!

 

If you like history & want to know more about the awesome president we were robbed of, check it out! 👍

I thought Garfield died from a splenectomy... seriously.

Given what the doctors did to him, they were more at fault rather than the assassin, so it's still in the ballpark.

 

I think it was the same deal with William McKinley... the surgeons botched the retrieval of the bullet so badly that they did much greater damage than "the assassin."

I keep telling myself that one hit could not possibly scramble a guy's brains this much. But...look at his issues (hardly any) before that Burfict hit vs his issues afterwards.

 

According to his own father, he's been a psychotic ashhole since he was a teenager.

….and probably not just the normal kind, since the baseline for teenagers in general is pretty high. 

 

As usual, it’s not this or that, it’s this and that. He is where is for all kinds of reasons all acting together.

If I remember correctly (no guarantees, lol) I think they even ended up removing him from the home because they thought he was a threat to his own mother.

Yikes! Anything near that level is shocking. It’s a wonder he got as far as he did for as long as he did.

If that's true it must have been kept under close ties before the draft or the Chiefs would have jumped all over him!

What a fall from grace. 

his saving grace is he is a bad shot and missed. Hence attempted and not full blown murder

 

The guy ain't right.

 

He hasn't been right for a while.

 

what a waste of talent 

 

Now we will see what the justice system says. He will have the best lawyer his money can buy. Will it be enough to save him from prison?

 

Lots of famous people end up in prison. He might be joining them.

He has no money left.   The only attorney is one that wants the publicity to go along with this.  If they do well the NFL will produce plenty of clients for them.

Am I crazy for thinking that hit was NOT anything incredibly out of the ordinary?

 

I know his flailing after makes it kinda graphic, but just looking at the hit, it doesn't look crazy at all. Not intentional to me. I havent seen it in a while, but I know ive had thid same thought multiple times and when I see it again, I think the same thing everytime.

 

Strikes me as one of those things thats more like hitting the ball with the sweet spot on the bat, not a violent swing, but a buttery one that ball goes screaming off of.

Thats one of the most violent cheap shots Ive ever seen.  It was wicked dirty.  Burflict was the dirtiest player in the NFL.  Most teams took him off their draft boards.  Bengals love scumbags. Burflict went out of his way to ntarget Browns head

I hereby retract my speculation.

he had a history of issues prior… he just was good at smiling into the camera for a couple years
