Standing_Tall#37 Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 I saw this... I hated him when he played. I feel bad for him, but it doesn’t change the fact that he was a dirty pos when he played. The Nick Boynton story is very similar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twilight Sparkle Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 1 hour ago, The 5th Line said: I an very displeased with the making of this video. I myself am in to my 5th year of post concussion recovery and the flashing lights and animations used in the making of this make it impossible to watch without being overstimulated. I chose to just listen and not watch. What the hell were they thinking? People all over the world who have concussion issues want to watch this but can't. Also, in regards to the OP's comments about the old school hockey lovers. Fighting should stay apart of the game to give the players a chance to police it themselves. The staged fights are practically gone and the reason the game is changing is because players are faster, it's not because the GM's, owners and fans want it too. Speed kills and the big and rough guys can't produce that. It's not just professional athletes that need help it's us regular folk too. My life is hell and I hope we can all be treated soon it's a really, really good segment and i agree that fighting has its place. ever since the nfl started working with chris nowinski (former wrestler who's career ended from concussions, is a doctor who specializes in brain trauma, solved the chris benoit case) is when the concussion debate exploded and it wasn't a big dirty secret anymore. the nfl cracked down on it and now more recently the nhl doubled down after their lawsuit hockey is a beautiful but brutal sport and its not surprising that they want to keep the beauty and kinda weed out the brutality. the old school guys may never make the full transition (like a don cherry) of taking out some of the violence of the sport and keep the finesse. after the chris benoit thing i've been reading up more, and more open to brain injuries and the kind of stuff that leads people to do, to themselves or others and i'm like you and many others who want to see the next big breakthrough as medicine and technology advances in our lifetime as for the actual video, i don't really get the visuals, there is a lot of flashing and quick transition of scenes, it's pretty chaotic... maybe thats what these people were going for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
