Goodell 'terrified' a player could die during game

That would be kinda cool actually

He should be concerned!

Anything could happen. Take reasonable precautions. Unfortunately, our society is full of "leaders" that try to control everything. Everything cannot be controlled.

Close down the weight rooms and make all the players eat at MacDonalds and Burger King exclusively. They'd all be too fat and too slow to hurt anybody. Problem solved.

Honestly, with the speed of the game right now and those helmet-to-helmet collisions, I'm surprised that there hasn't been anything like that yet. I would hate to see it. I can barely watch the replays of the Theisman injury or McGahee injury (when he was with Miami).

Chuck Hughes died on the field of a heart attack during a game in '71. I also thought a lineman died after a game due to injuries he suffered in the game back in the 60's. it's a violent game that puts enormous stress on the body.

Yep them where some bad injurys....same as Tim Krumie for the Bengals in the Superbowl against the 49ers.

Noneofurbussiness should think of it this way what if that was your Dad that dies in the game ....how cool is that?

I'm old enough to remember the news stories for Chuck Hughes. Nobody thought it was cool and the lingering image was Dick Butkus frantically gesturing to the Lions bench to get someone out to try and help revive Hughes. The teams were forced to finish the game, but nobody wanted to be on that field any more.

Race car drivers die on the track every few years and it hasn't hurt racing. Too many fans and too much money are involved. They keep making racing safer and they still have fatalities and the fans still come.

I think the NFL has been very lucky it hasn't happened yet. If or when a player dies in the NFL the same will apply.

Roger Goodell is a pathetic excuse for a man. People die all the time doing their job. Truck drivers, cops, pilots, cabbies. The only difference is the TV coverage. Goodell is more suited to be a dance choreographer in a drag show than the commissioner of a sports league.
I cannot express my disdain for that P.O.S. in a family friendly forum. How much longer do we have to listen to his drivel.

That's kind of a sick thought don't you think?

Goodell can't win on this one. If he changes the game to increase safety, he gets criticized for watering down the game. If someone gets killed on the field, he didn't do enough to improve safety. He's just going to have to pick his poison.

<----- Has a morbid fear of an NFL Comish dying in a back alley of N'Leans

No one pay any further attention to nonofurbusiness. Note: 2 posts. Just a troll getting what he wants. Let him be. This series of slaps to his face are the most affection he's had from humans in years.
