My prayers go out to the guy on the T-Bolts sidelines, I'm not sure what happened, but my question is WHY WASN'T THE GAME STOPPED??? Just because the guy wasn't a player, he was STILL a HUMAN BEING. What would have happened if the ball would have came back the other way and something would have happened??? COME ON REFS, WHURR'S THE COMPASSION?!?!? Why did not one of the T-Bolts try and stop the game??? Hey Cliff, what if that would have been you??? Wouldn't you have wanted the game stopped??? Or the Raiders, if that was me (for those of you that don't know, I'm a former player who's now paralyzed and in a whelchair), wouldn't you have wanted one of the T-Bolts to try and stop the game until I got cleared out of thurr. I know I don't know the WHOLE story but from what I can tell. this is one of the most BULL$HIT things that could of happened in this league.

I am glad to see that someone addressed this issue. I attended the game on Saturday, and I was apalled that there was not one trained medical person available to respond the that man. Thanks be to God that he was okay. On a larger scale, you guys are out there playing a contact sport with a high risk for injury...you are putting your safety on the line. I have serious concerns about an organization that does not even take basic measures to insure that you will be taken care of in the even of an emergency. I admire all of you for playing the game and pursuing your passion. But nothing is worth sacrificing your health and safety. Please talk to your coaches and managers and owners and insist that something is done to remedy this situation. I look forward to supporting you all through the remainder of the season. God Bless.
