Medical personnel in NFL sidelines in incomparable vs moms and dads for high school kids. So what NFL players died at Miami? Quote

I simply asked what players died at Miami. I'm not saying heat stroke doesn't exist, I'm saying no NFL players have died in Miami. I remember Korey Stringer died of heat stroke in Minnesota. It can happen anywhere if proper care is not taken. Quote

I never said players died in Miami … I said that heat stroke IS the number one cause of death on the football field and Miami has a stadium that puts one team at a huge risk of it… it’s not the first time it’s been said Quote

It can happen anywhere if proper care is not taken. If player safety were as important as they say, the NFL would be smart to schedule the Miami home games in the first 4-6 weeks of the season during primetime or 4:30pm. It’s such a simple precaution, doesn’t cost a cent and makes way too much sense. If you don’t understand that…. Good luck to ya Quote

Get out of the sun and stop hard physical exertion in which you can't do on the visitor sidelines in Miami. Are you more susceptible for heat stroke in hotter temps...like lets say a city like Miami?

Just want to point out that teams have played on that sideline in that heat in Miami for almost 35 years. This only became a big issue when the Dolphins shaded their sideline. But their shade doesnt amplify the visitors heat. The heat on the visitors side is the same as it always has been. Quote

Maybe not but it means the Fins now get a break from it while the other team doesn't, which means they get an artificially induced competitive advantage. Their bodies get a chance to cool down much more than their opponents. How about the Bills build enclosures on the sidelines their players can go into that are heated but not for the other team? That would be the equivalent. Edited December 5, 2022 by Big Turk Quote

But I don't know how anyone can say its a health issue now, when that point was never brought up before it had a roof. That's a bit disingenuous. Seriously, who here was complaining about Miami heat before the stadium retrofit? Anyone? Ever? The heat on the visitors sideline is the same as its been since 1987. The only difference is that the home team is shaded now. Quote
