Then tell Dieter to fucking apologize to me for putting words in my mouth that I never said and leaving snide insults instead of properly talking to someone with respect like I have with him.

That's all I want, Rhody: a fucking apology from him. If he apologizes, I will let bygones be bygones.

Steps in for what? His doctor cleared him.
Dying on the field? Oh the drama...

Would you want your son, nephew, husband, close friend returning to the field after a 3rd major concussion in such a short time? It’s indisputable that’s a dangerous situation to be in.

 

[Neil039]

No one wants to see someone get hurt. Tua's choice to play is his alone. Take your personal opinion out of it, as it has zero to do with any of us. The NFL has protocols in place, and they know full well the fallout if something serious were to happen to him on the field.

Show respect to everyone! We don't need to read inflammatory statements, abusive language and demands for personal gratification. Lowers the value of ROD and the individuals involved.

I'll take the heat because I don't care...Just like Ricky Gervais

 

[Neil039]

Oh do we still have Jimmy G on the roster? Asking for a friend.

 

[SteezyEndo]

Tua is now a liability regardless. No team wants to be luable for anything that can happen again and this time could be worse. Once they find his replacement (ahem! Jimmy G). Tua will just be a memory a sideline commando waiting for another oppurtunity to play. We’ll see but his NFL career may be done….

We have to get beyond these toxic beliefs that there is any virtue in beating the shit out of ourselves.

Wrong. What we have to get beyond is telling others what to do with their lives.

 

[Tano]

I'm sure he'll get over it. Lol

And then if he makes it to 40 - he will be in the bathroom with the door closed and in complete darkness wondering why he did not listen to Tano.

... makes it to 40 ... in the bathroom with the door closed ... in complete darkness ... wondering why did not listen to Tano.

Been There ...

Some of you just live for the virtue signaling. Stop trying so damn hard, jeebus. Take the hand wringing down a few notches..

Some people call 'virtue signaling' empathy, but you do you.

Sorry Mems. I don't think I'd hold my breath while waiting for a moderator to order someone to offer an apology for something they said in an argument. He didn't break any rules and I personally think you both got a bit carried away.

Everyone in this side argument needs to heed Rhody's suggestion and chill the fuck out.

If his doctors clear him to play, it’s his decision. Plain and simple.
The nfl has paid and invested billions in to head trauma and have created protocols. If he meets them, who the heck is to stand in his way?
It’s his choice.

Agreed it’s his choice. But it’s definately something he should thoroughly assess (maybe 2nd and 3 opinions) before returning. And I hope he does for his sake and his family’s sake.

Thanks, and same to you. Just seems very performative to me, that's all.

 

[0311rams]

His family supports his decision to play and he will, Again...... go rams

 

[Jorgeh0605]

I believe he should stop playing. I believe he should have stopped playing a while ago. Unfortunately, we can't make him stop.
