Those doctors were awesome in their detailed response to the questions, even with HIPPA concerns. I learn a lot less from a McDermott presser with softer questions 😂

 

There aren't HIPAA concerns because the family requested the press conference and authorized the doctors to speak. 

 

It sounded as though there were agreed-on boundaries before the conference, and the doctors (I thought) did a great job of gently smacking down questions that went too far.   I actually was kind of flabbergasted by the level of medical detail a couple of physicians who got on the call requested.  They want to know the ejection volume***, what's next, the size in inches?

 

***yes, yes, I understand what they're actually asking for, but I haven't been able to make a joke for 3 days, work with me

I didn't know myself but assumed area code since it was 3 digits and I was right

I assumed the 3 referred to Damar's number and the 51 to someone else, but it belongs to a backup linebacker.

Not to be the materialistic weasel of the group, but....Is anyone else fighting the urge to dream up scenarios on what a amazingly triumphant story it would be for the Bills to win the SB.  I know I am.  Trying to manage expectations.

 

Tops Massacre

 

Matt Araiza being released

 

Dawsons brother

 

Micah Hyde - done

 

Von Miller - done

 

Two historic deadly snowstorms

 

Damar Hamlin

 

If anyone needs this, it's the people of Buffalo 

 

 

 

 

 

Araiza being released was a blessing.  take it off your list of tragedies...

If Damar's recovery continues in the direction it's looking, I'm pretty certain I know who's gonna be the first guy to hold the Lamar Hunt or Lombardi if we get there...

It's gonna be fu***** crazy waterworks. Tens of millions of people crying at once.

If he recovers how we all hope we have already won. No matter what happens in the games

It's Cincinnati's area code

Really happy to hear he is making great progress.  I hope he is able to make a complete recovery and be back on the field (if that’s what he wants to do).   Such a scary incident and he has so much life to live, go get ‘em #3!

Thank you!

Hamlin almost dies and the first thing he wants to know when he regains consciousness is: Did we win?

 

This should be our rallying cry for the rest of the season.   If someone puts this on a tee, I’m buying it.

 

I hope and pray the team gives Damar a series of positive responses!

Araiza, Hyde, and Miller, unfortunate but not tragedies. 

 

Kim Pegula and the silence around her condition, that's a tragedy. 

 

I was just going to post a wish.  With all the prayers and well wishes I'm still holding onto hope that Damar AND Kim can host a Lombardi.

And this is the exact mindset why 99% of players are not going to blink an eye at returning to play

 

they spent their entire lives to become pro ball players … Hamlin is a football player 

 

Of course his first question when he wakes up isnt how the stock market is doing… It’s if they won

I actually think it would be super-cool to have a t-shirt with a photo of Hamlin in his jersey and the caption: "There's gonna be a lot of toys for him to buy"

Docs at UC medical Center say upon regaining consciousness last night Damar asked who won the game.

A bunch of keyboard warriors spent the last couple of days scolding people over caring about football.  Meanwhile the first thing the injured player asks about is football.

Just another piece of the adversity the Bills went through this year.  It could be on, or off.
