Olave possible return scenario (64 Viewers)

[UFCSaint]

You can't tell the extent of the damage to the brain by just looking at the person.

Some people you can...

Some people you can...

You can see the reaction to a brain injury, but short of coma/death (and even then, not all coma/deaths are the same) you cannot ascertain the extent of the damage done to the brain by just looking at the reaction at the time of the concussion, or the symptoms afterward.

Yeah I'm not sure I want to rush him back, let him take his time.

 

[Scorpius the Allfather]

Absolutely not.

Olave might need to retire let alone play this year. He's one more concussion away from lifelong damage if he doesn't have that already.

I thought that about Brandin Cooks and he's still going.

 

[Scorpius the Allfather]

Fact of the matter is as much as I disagree with WhoDatdrewdat on here he is 100% correct, it’s not a question anymore of if he will show long term possible injury, he IS showing it now. Don’t ask me what that is because I can’t say. It sucks though.

If you can't say, how do you know he's showing it?

 

[RJS]

If you can't say, how do you know he's showing it?

Maybe he's in the medical field and doesn't feel comfortable sharing too much?

If you don't want to believe something a long time poster (like you) submits, fine. But please don't badger them until they stop sharing. Some of us want to form our opinions based on what is being shared and the credibility of where it's coming from. And as someone a long ways away from NO, I appreciate getting some potential nuggets here.

I wish Chris well.

I can’t say how I know, not if I know if or not he’s showing signs of it

 

[Scorpius the Allfather]

In other words, you have zero evidence and just your gut instinct.

Since when is asking a question badgering someone?

Oh no I have tons of evidence, this has zero to do with a gut feeling.

 

[Scorpius the Allfather]

So when you said "i can't say", you meant you weren't supposed to and not the other meaning?

 

[TruSaint]

So when you said "i can't say", you meant you weren't supposed to and not the other meaning?

Correct

 

[Scorpius the Allfather]

Correct

That makes sense. I thought you were talking out of your butt!

 

[TruSaint]

I try to tell as much as I can without jeopardizing people’s livelihood. If people choose to believe me or not that’s fine.
