Not sure at this point if there is any way to prove it. I doubt any personnel person for the Pats would say they glossed over his concussion. So shouldn't lead to any lost draft picks but could lead to the NFL once again looking into their concussion protocol and trying to figure out how best to make sure they don't miss anything.

Having talked to players they said it is pretty easy to beat the tests. All they have to do is do as bad on their baseline test as possible without it completely looking like they are doing it on purpose. So the lower baseline then makes it very easy to pass the test in the actual season.

Tom Brady probably has had several concussions over the years.

While I have to admit he's probably the greatest ever QB, he has to address the cumulative effect these concussions may have for him down the road.

I don't blame Geselle, she probably does not want to be married to a vegetable in 10 years.

Unfortunately we all know what the league can do with one piece of unproven anecdotal evidence...

That said, I doubt the league wants to call into question the competence of their spotters and independent neurotrauma consultants at this point in the concussion protocol genesis.

That would make sense, and I don't remember a hit last year that may have prompted the protocol. I don't remember the refs calling for protocol to be implemented, and I am leery that any reputable doctor would put his reputation on the line. It seems more likely Gisselle might not understand what a concussion is.

Or she just thinks every time he gets hit he gets a concussion. Let's not forget her primary skill in life is the ability to walk in high heels.

I'm guessing she understands but with all concussions they all have a different story. What level of concussion are we talking about? If we are talking a few mild grade concussions then those shouldn't be a huge factor. Symptoms last usually less than 15 minutes. Yes his head would need rest but an entire week between games and he should be good to go. Grade 2 he probably needs to sit out for a while to let his brain heal. And well Grade 3 I would recommend missing the entire season.

It wouldn't shock me if he does have a grade 1 concussion once a year playing football. It doesn't take a whole lot to trigger that level of concussion so even just a minor hit but his head landing wrong when he hits the turf could do that.

Hell for all we know it could have happened in a practice.

Crazier things have happened. Isn't paying attention and ball comes and hits him in the head. Forgets that he doesn't have his helmet on and headbutts a teammate after a great play. The reasons are endless.

He does administer one hell of a head butt

She gave his peckerhead a concussion while playing tonsil hockey.
Happens every time.

Giselle isn't an expert on anything including the English language. I'm not calling her stupid, the word concussion can be used on every play to describe the concussive trauma a thigh pad gets when a rb runs through a tackle... A certain concussive force happens each time a helmet is grazed without any concussive head affect.

Just because she used the word concussion in regard to her husband receiving concussions on the field does not mean he had measurable degenerative head trauma. And even absent the context we correlate to concussions, she still has merit.

Suicidal psychopath was not a true Patriot. And some lame ass law that expunges him posthumously does not change what he did.

he is innocent of all murder charges

Arcane legalities aside, I don't think dying alone in a prison cell quite fits the criteria for getting away with something.

 

[nefansince75]

he is innocent of all murder charges

but yet he died in prison!

 

[black francis]

but yet he died in prison!

lots of innocent people have died in prison

So the legal ruling doesnt apply?

 

[Shoeshine Boy]

Is he still dead?
