Poor Jason LaRue

[jbhofmann]

Listen, I really like LaRue, alot. He was a great Red for many years. But someone please explain how this situation would have been any different if Cueto had a pair of flip-flops on. The concussion wasn't caused by the metal tips of spikes. The concussion was caused by the kick to the head after he (LaRue) had suffered years of blows to the head.

I'm not an expert on these things, but I would imagine that the impact from a pair of cleats with any kind of spikes would be much greater then the impact of a pair of flip flops. I'm not a doctor, nor do I have a doctorate in science... so I'm not Dr. Science. But...

I'm not a doctor but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night. The blow of the kick would cause the concussion not the metal of the spike. After suffering nearly 20 concussions in his life, he probably has a better lawsuit against the doctors that keep clearing him to resume playing.

OK OK, I admit that I did NOT stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night. So I have to graciously bow out and hand this one to ya.

:lol:

:lol: Hey I'm willing to admit I might be dead wrong, but LaRue was a ticking concussion timebomb waiting to happen.
