Ruptured Spleen, But Keeps Playing?

[Deathsdoorstep]

Anyone hear about this Chris Simms story? Who the hell is their team doctor? And why is he still employed?

They don't know when he did it, and he didn't pull himself. Hard to blame the doc

He was out of the game, couldn't breathe, throwing up blood, and went back in!

He put himself back in, I watched the game.

If it was Brett Favre instead of Chris Simms he would have cut out his own spleen during a time out and marched the team down the field for the win.

Simms tried, he's got some heart.

Almost. He would have marched his team down the field to get his team close and then thrown an INT with no time left on the clock the next series...


...and John Madden would rave about it on air for the next fifteen years...
