I fully expect the Panthers to release Michael, eventually.

Blame it on the concussion.

They updated the story. Apparently the driver put his hands on his face and oher knocked him to the ground. 

Driver's a punk and there's nothing to see here

I heard his concussion was really bad, slured speech, dizzy all the time, etc.  For his sake I hope he considers moving on from football.  Amazing success story that needs a happy ending IMO.

On a serious note

Athletes, soldiers and other people who experience repeated head injuries are at risk of becoming angry and violent, developing depression or experiencing memory loss, new research suggests.

The study looks at the effects of chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), a brain disease that's common among athletes and linked to repeated head trauma.

Neuroscientists from the Boston University School of Medicine studied the brains of 36 male athletes, aged 17 to 98, who were diagnosed with CTE and had no other history of brain disease.

After thoroughly interviewing the athletes' families, they found 33 had experienced negative side-effects.

According to the interviews, 22 of the athletes, mostly young men, first experienced mood and behaviour problems, and were often angry and violent. Of those 22, 73% were described as "explosive," 64% as "out of control," 68% as physically violent, 74% as verbally violent and 86% as depressed.

Sure, but did he blow a 28-3 lead in the Super Bowl?

Nice to see he's dishing out concussions for a change.

Well this sucks. We will see what happens, but I was hoping he could keep his career going.

Please no more blindside jokes. Not saying they were bad, just we're going to hit over a dozen of them in this thread.

Jokes...we apparently don't have them.

[pantherj]

Just wondering what type of person would put their hands in Oher's face? I have to see what this Uber diver looks like.
