Sure he can be discharged, to the team’s doc…

But I don’t believe for a second they treated and streeted him.

Yeah same, that injury was already there, it was just aggravated with whatever happened. Tua will either pull an Andrew Luck or just burn out completely. He's just not meant for sports. He's made of glass.

But hey, at least the debbie downers were right about Mixon playing like crap, eh?

I wanna be a Debbie Downer.. Any good drugs come with the job? lol

I’m guessing you thought Miami played flawlessly then?

It makes me laugh when people stop by a game thread to remind everyone they don’t participate in game threads.

And it’s almost always after wins.

Just as flawless as the Bengals.

A lot of your guys posts in the GDT’s make me laugh, so the feeling is mutual.

I know. I’ve been a nurse for 24 years. That’s why I think it’s complete bs. Even if he was treated as a super VIP, which I’m sure he was, that’s REALLY fast…too fast.

Could be Miami’s docs stepped on our Cincy doc’s toes, too.

You need a neurologist or neurosurgeon to give the all clear. Those consults take at least an hour, if not more.

Getting him into the ER, registered, seen by ER doc, orders put in and nurse carries out orders, ER doc or nurse calls the consult, he has to go get a CT, (possibly MRI but I doubt it), then those docs have to review everything and also assess him/talk to his docs, nurse then has to discharge him.

All the while they also have all the traumas and other patients coming in to the ER, other patients already there, etc.

That would be INSANELY great time, like unbelievably great. That’s why I don’t believe it.

I wish Fitzpatrick was our QB2. I miss The Beard.

I'm sure I will die participating/reading this thread. I'm in a discord bengals voice chat group too and they're usually a play ahead, which makes it worse lol.

I was in the dawg pound when Fitzpatrick threw a floater to Chris Henry for a TD. It was 0 degrees with negative windchill so I left at half lol

It must be fun sitting there by yourself quietly and calmly though, that's definitely what watching sports is about. :)

It's like people that tell me they're not afraid of roller coasters. lol then don't ride it.

He probably told them he ain't got no insurance..That always speeds things up and gets you sent on your way..
I remember when no insurance got you wheeled directly out to the parking lot..I figured out the trick though..The magic words.. I'm suicidal!  They'll sell off a couple of hospital wings then if needed.. You ain't allowed to kill yourself. That's THEIR freakin job!  Lol

I sit calmly.. Too old for getting pissed over a game..I save that crap for my arguments with the old lady.. lol
I got tired of having to replace crap I used to break..

His spine might be intact but I wouldn’t be surprised if he had a brain bleed. His already rung bell got re-rung again.

They would have had to scan for that before allowing him to fly.

Brain bleeds can and do occur much later after the fact..They don't always do that, but they often do. I seriously doubt he'll be sitting in the party section of the plane though..

No party sections allowed after a loss.
