Bills' Damar Hamlin in critical condition after collapsing on field, game suspended for rest of night. I know many on this site will join me in concern for this player.
Please say a prayer!

It appears to be a very serious situation. Praying for this young man
google this, saw a post by a cardiologist who saw the hit and conjectured this is what happened.
I am inclined to agree, POOR KID. Google "Commotio Cordis".

I thought they did as well as they could given the situation I’m sure there were a lot of discussions in NY with their lawyers about the what happens if the game is postponed/ canceled since they are opening themself up to class action lawsuits depending how the situation is handled going forward.

The focus needs to be on damar and damar only who cares about a football game that will work it self out @ a later date attention needs to be about this young man health
Maybe it seemed like an eternity since they kept breaking away to the three studio people who were scraping for things to say.
Football deaths on the field are statistically rare but not quite unheard of. On the high school level, four million kids play the game but about 10 or so will die every year from concussions, dehydration, hyperthermia and, yes, cardiac arrest.
Does the death of a football player, at any level, make you feel more bereft than the death of a fan? If so, it is understandable. The death of cop will be felt most keenly by his family and his brothers in blue.

I am fascinated by level of attention this story is getting. Perhaps because it played out on national television in front of millions? Not downplaying this at all. Just find our society interesting in how it responds to different stories. Continued prayers to him and anyone suffering for that matter.
Some stories generate outrage, an emotion that is easy to fake. But the news, especially the cameras, amplify an emotion like grief, which can range from silent and respectful to dramatic and beyond.
A few people? Are you even reading or comprehending? Tell me where I didn’t think this wasn’t important.
Nope. I just want people to understand their are situations like this that are larger than football.
Let’s take a moment to understand this kids life is in gods hands and we as humans should be praying for him and not thinking when or if they reschedule the game. I pray no one ever has to live through what his parents are going through right now.
Life isn't that black and white though. People can feel horrible about Hamlin, and his family, and also understand that the world doesn't stop moving.
Corey: You shouldn't be that harsh on people here. I am 100% sure everyone writing in this thread knows exactly what's important here. Right now, Damar Hamlin is in good hands and getting the best of care.
We should be praying for Damar Hamlin first and foremost. But we should also be praying for his family and those who are giving him the care he needs and praying that all the right decisions where his care are concerned are made.
There are now a lot of moving parts here and a lot of things to consider as the league moves forward. That is where the conversation has shifted to today. No one is forgetting Damar Hamlin and I am sure there will be a moment of silence before every NFL game this weekend in his honor.
What other MULTI-BILLION DOLLAR industry makes such drastic changes of schedules that impacts GLOBAL betting, many of which wagers were predicated on down-times for high achieving teams to get healthy because they earned a bye?

Doctors just reported that he woke up and the first thing he said , via paper and pen was "who won the game" the doctor replied to him "you won. You won the game of life"
