Washington television station KHQ-TV reported that Rypien was arrested after an incident with his wife near a bank in north Spokane. Rypien and his wife spoke separately with police before Rypien was handcuffed about 45 minutes later, according to KHQ-TV.

 

Rypien, in an interview last year with KHQ-TV and The Spokesman-Review, said he once tried to kill himself -- the result of mental health issues stemming from his football career.

 

"I suffer from a complex stew of mental health conditions," he said. "Dark places, depression, anxiety, addictions, poor choices, poor decisions, brought about from dozens of concussions and thousands of subconcussive injuries from playing this sport."

that sum B word

 

was that the sb where thurman lost his helmet?

he lost it in Minnesota ...   was it Was or Dallas?  

 

....  the second time in which Minneapolis has hosted a Super Bowl. The first was Super Bowl XXVI, which was held at the Metrodome in 1992. The Washington Redskins defeated the Buffalo Bills 37–24.

had to look it up!

 

The first sign that the Bills were going to be blown out by the Redskins in Super Bowl XXVI: starting the game without their future Hall of Fame running back for the weirdest of reasons.

No, the ones that  killed the Bills hopes in that game were the refs, the ridiculous mugging our WRs took with no penalties, if you let them play with no consequences how can you blames them to keep doing it, so much so Andre Reed finally lost it, never saw him every do that before in his career.

IMO that BR "reason" is hogwash.  misplacing his helmet was not the reason they lost,

If you talk to the individuals involved Buffalo had a "perfect" play called on first down and many believe Thurman would have had a huge gain or perhaps a TD.  Kenny Davis made the wrong cut.

it did say "first sign" that the bills were going to be blown out, not the sole reason?

 

goes further to say

 

The game didn't get much better for Thomas following the gaffe. He rushed for just 13 yards on 10 attempts as the Bills fell behind the Washington Redskins, 24-0, early in the third quarter.

 

Kelly had an awful day, too. He threw four interceptions, two coming deep in Bills territory, that eventually turned into Redskins touchdowns. He also had two of Buffalo's incredible six fumbles, was sacked five times, and even caught a pass for a loss of eight yards.

 

James Lofton had the best game for Buffalo, catching 7 passes for 92 yards

 

 

 

all I know, is out of the four superbowls, the redskins defeat was the most frustrating for me.

Yes, I was going to say that wouldn't have necessarily changed the outcome, but getting an advantage early could have altered the complexion of the game.

 

While we're throwing blame around who can forget Chuck Dickerson making an arse of himself and riling up the Skins' OL?

And in a very classy move by Coach Gibbs, the Skins downed the ball down deep in our territory at the end of that game.

no doubt losing an early advantage will hurt somewhat.  

 

The (couch) coach Chuck Dickerson.  what a clown
