Me too. I expect it at some point. I hope it isn’t today.

I remember hearing a story from decades ago where a HS player died instantly on the field, and the medics pretended to do CPR etc because they didn’t  want the crowd to know they saw someone die.

Always wondered what the NFL would do.

 

 

You may be referring to Phil Hughston, who died from injuries at Garinger High School in 1971.  The field is named after him.  His brother Chuck is married to my wife's cousin.

He required CPR, so this is normal. Anyone receiving CPR has to be intubated.

The best new information is that he's alive. 

It’s f*cking horrible. He might be alive but he was given CPR for almost 10 minutes meaning that’s 10 minutes his brain and other organs might have not been getting oxygen. Being intubated means a host of other pathogens can get into your body in an already weakened state. It’s so awful and am praying for that man and his family. This is just terrible.

Based on the most recent US Commotio Cordis Registry data, 58% of individuals have survived a commotio cordis episode in recent years. Overall, survival trends following exercise- or sports-related sudden cardiac arrest from all causes in young athletes is improving.

Goodell. The NFL's policy on these situations has already been posted. It's his call.

right, not sure what's hard about this. As long as there are no safety complications for fans or players associated with announcing the cancellation quickly (no idea what those would even be, but just saying), no reason at all to wait this fuging long. disgusting

Wow.....Those fans who were still sitting and ONLY GOT UP AFTER THE Public Address announcment came through that the game was called.....Those fans SUCK.

 

PERIOD.

They may have had less of an idea what’s going on than we do. May have been waiting for an announcement on the player.

It was frustrating that it took that long to announce it, but they all knew it was postponed pretty quickly. 

only because the players/coaches refused to play. or that's how the NFL has now made this look. which is absolutely pathetic.
