Korey Stringer's Family......

need to let this go. This is ridiculous. Let Korey R.I.P. and just accept that he had a simple heat stroke. Our legal system is so out of wack...

The family of former Minnesota Vikings offensive lineman Korey Stringer won an important legal victory Monday against the manufacturer of the helmets and shoulder pads he wore when he died nearly eight years ago from complications of heatstroke.

A federal judge in Ohio concluded that manufacturer Riddell Inc. had a duty to warn Stringer that its helmets and shoulder pads could contribute to heat stroke when used in hot conditions.

yup!!!

So, I'm thinking, this winter I'm gonna go buy some new Nike skates, a Reebok jersey, some underarmer and a few other big brands and I'm gonna go play pond hockey until I'm almost frozen to death and then go get me some free money...their tags never warned me that their poo wouldn't keep me warm enough to play outside when it's -50!

I have a hard time telling a family how it's "appropriate" for them to grieve.

That said, I think the ruling is stupid.

But, their continuous pursuit of these actions in a court room seems to have more to do with $$ than with grieveing.

Hey, it's a sign of the times, you get what you can take. It's not gonna change until judges decide that it's gone too far and I don't know when that will happen in this politically correct society,,,

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Mintal again.

Maybe one of your best post yet.

This is what happens when everyone is taught someone "owes" them something...

    • The lack of discipline has seriously been our downfall the last month. Seems like we just went off course this last month and Lee won't address it. You can't just live and die by the 3 when you can attack the paint and at worst draw a foul
    • Great season regardless of what happens. From starting out 4-14 to ending 44-38 is incredible progress and future is bright from here. I do think we can beat the Heat and then win on the road against either Orlando or Philly assuming Embiid doesn’t miraculously return sooner. But if not, a higher draft pick is nice too
    • I know a DT that's asking for a trade: 🤔 maybe a home discount can be worked out. Dan Morgan could create up to $80 million in space through restructures of stars like Derrick Brown, Jaycee Horn, or Taylor Moton. They could also include players like Tershawn Wharton ($18.6M cap hit) in the trade to balance the salaries. Carolina Receives: DT  Dexter Lawrence II New York Receives: 2026 2nd Round Pick (No. 51 Overall): A premium Day 2 selection that fits the for  Lawrence  after his 0.5-sack season in 2025. WR  Xavier Legette : A young, high-upside receiver who provides the playmaking depth HC John Harbaugh needs for his offense. 2026 4th Round Pick: Immediate mid-round value. 2027 4th Round Pick (via MIN): Future capital acquired in the  Adam Thielen  trade.  ----- Stone Forsythe* (another young player as a potential trade option)provides immediate offensive line retooling for HC John Harbaugh.    John Harbaugh's history in Baltimore proves he values draft volume over individual superstars.    Just my 2cents
