oh come on they're were only like two cheap shots. He got beat cleanly too.

That hamstring probably made him throw one of the dumbest passes in playoff history.

Well, now I see why he didnt just take off down the sideline in that overtime play...

didn't know that the sport had turned to doubles ice skating...it's football buddy; people tackle each other...same when you guys took McNabb out in that first game of the season. Late hit, guy was giving effort and broke some ribs. It's football.

That was pretty great, wasn't it?

As far as your comment about seeing a scan of his brain, he's taken some shots over his career, but you would see a lot more damage in your average offensive linemen. You see a scan of a lineman's brain and it's all dark spots, or Tau; basically non-functioning brain tissue. They get helmet to helmet contact on almost every play. Even though those hits are a fraction of one of the big shots Brett may take, it's the cumulative damage of all those little hits that really fuggs up players later. For example, you're also more likely to get a concussion by receiving three or four little hits to the head than one monster hit.
