NFL OFF-SEASON THREAD 2022-23: FanDuel getting everybody hemmed up. ESPN went Kamikaze. We in that dead zone of the year y’all.

No Shannon this morning?
Probably doesn't want to be next to Skip after last night.

I never watch that show but flipped over to it to see what Shannon would say. Bayless looks like he's afraid of saying anything - dude's shaking like a leaf. He knows he stepped in it last night.

Btw, does the show always have some ridiculously jolly lady moderating the show with a 3-second delay? **** was awkward to try to watch.

"Welcome to Undisputed!!! How are we doing today Skip?!?"​

"Not good."​

Yeah I noticed that too. There's typically a delay whens he isn't in the studio, but today was extremely bad. Show NEEDS Shannon bad. Skip isn't built to carry a show like that by himself cause no one cares what he has to say. I had to cut it off after all those fake sighs and pauses.

Wow. It's just so bizarre. He gets up after the hit, and adjusts his helmet. I wonder what was going through his mind. Was he breathing at that moment? What was his breathing like that whole day? Or did it just happen when the blow happened? Has he had heart problems before.?


Probably will never know. I pray he hasn't suffered brain damage. He's gonna make it.

 

[Beans]

Read the tweets and I really think ppl are misinterpreting what he was saying. Don’t get me wrong, I find him extremely annoying but I personally find the “exclusive sideline” takes far more offensive. Felt like every account last night was scrambling to have some update or speculation. The whole “look at the players reactions, you can tell it’s bad”. **** Was gross to see.

Prayers to the player.

That was just painful to watch last night. I pray that this man makes it through and his quality of life is not affected by this injury. Things like this make us realize even more so, how precious life is.

The NFL should be ashamed of themselves. I have no doubt in my mind that they said to them take 5 and lets get this going again. This is the same league that did not cancel games when JFK was assassinated, Chuck Hughes died on the field, and didnt want to cancel games when 9/11 happened and did so because of the pressure from the players. This league uses these men like pieces of meat and spit them out when they have no use for them anymore and leave them to fend for themselves upon retirement. Its all about the $ with the league and its a shame. $ isnt everything. Should be respectful to these men. Its time the players union fight as much as they need to, to get guaranteed contracts for their players. Its time. Look what happened last night, one hit and your career is over.

Reporters and analysts are so damn horny and geared up to be make a splash on social media.

This was something we never saw before. A crazy insane freaky scary thing.

Fall back.

Don't post. That's the route to go IMO

Just reading this.. is umm something

My homie just texted me a reminder to get CPR trained as his sister administered CPR to their father after a heart attack and was able to save his life before the ambulance came

EYE don't think they're physically capable.

Nah man. Not saying that.

"Prayers for Damar Hamlin and the Buffalo Bills"

Keep it simple. You start posting some opinionated nonsense it never works for those people.

Yeah that's what I mean. They can't NOT put their 2 cents in.

 

[aepps20]

To be honest I wonder how many youth sports coaches and staff are properly trained and certified to provide medical assistance? Based on some of the folks that I encounter that coach youth sports, player safety is never brought up.

My one dude immediately tweeted about Tee Higgins and how defensive players are not protected by the rules.

Like yeah, that might not be true. But now isn’t the time to have a critical discussion about the actual game of football

I'm CPR & AED certified but I had to do it for my teaching license. I can't speak for anywhere else but in VA I'm pretty sure every coach at the HS level has to have that at the bare minimum.

On the flipside never had to do it in NC.

 

[DeadsetAce]

y'all (the proverbial y'all) need to stop watching Skip and all those daytime ESPN idiots

Is cpr training not taught in school? I had a course in hs but not sure if it’s the same in the states.

In the last hour on FB I've said this to people saying 'Skip's not technically wrong, though':

"He was wrong, though, not because what he said was inaccurate but because 'How do we move forward with the games?' is NOT the conversation ANYONE needs to be having right now.
NO ONE."

"It's the timing. Sure, it seems like he's innocently asking "Logistically, how could we cancel a game with such playoff ramifications?" Problem is, that is not a question that anyone needs to be asking right now."

That's what I've heard about CO for high school sports. It seems to be the wild west in the younger ages. Most dudes coaching the younger kids that I know aren't even teaching proper tackling so I hope they are certified but I doubt they would do it unless required.

I never had to do CPR training in school but I took a driving course and had to get training through the company that taught me how to drive.

Skip shaking this morning

 

[Nipsey3000]

Prayers up for that kid.

Imo ESPN etc laying it on thick. A few of those guys don't come off as sincere.

Not that they don't care,

But they're reaching too hard to make some grandiose, touching statement.

Imo
