Prayers for Damar Hamlin

Update - Sounds like they're trying to get him off the ventilator, so he can breathe on his own.

I'm actually shocked ESPN didn't cut away to a commercial break or resort to something
of that nature !?

It's as if for a moment we went back to a different place and space in time, re: unscripted prayer
on TV while not being on a religious channel/network …

The way I see it he wanted to express himself through prayer so he did no different from anyone else expressing themselves without being vulgar or disrespectful. He felt on his heart to pray some to cry some to do whatever but so long as you aren't disrespectful or callous then I'm cool with it. Pray to whoever you want to pray to so long as you're well-wishing on this young man

I Agree - Many people believe in the Power of Prayer, while understanding/believing that not all forms
of it are religiously based.

I'm not saying I'm religious, nor am I stating that I'm not. I was taught never to discuss 3 things amongst
mixed company - although to a certain extent, I consider the Webzone more like family/friends than I do
strangers - those being: money, politics, and religion.

What I was expressing was my appreciation in seeing Dan express himself in that manner on a live
broadcast … coupled with the fact that those who replied in the comment section behaved in a civil,
and humane fashion, instead of resorting to the "Cancel Culture" tactics prevalent on social media for
what was seemingly a genuine gesture on his part.

Just chatted with Damar Hamlin's family friend @jordonr.

Per Jordon and Damar's family, doctors overnight got promising readings that they had been hoping to see by this morning. Jordon couldn't go into specifics, but progress appears to be made.

Damar is still sedated and in critical condition in the ICU.

Jordon also clarified (on behalf of the family) that there may have been some miscommunications in terms of the number of times Damar Hamlin was resuscitated. There was only one instance at Paycor Stadium.

Will have much more on @espn throughout the morning/day. (We recorded an interview) But two other comments to look for from him: Damar's father is among those calling for any criticisms of Bengals WR Tee Higgins (who was part of the play Damar was injured on) to STOP.

Who the hell is criticizing Tee Higgins? That's a serious dick move because I'm sure he feels guilty enough as it is even though it was just a standard football play and really horrible luck that had not a thing to do with him.

RitaOak who does all the Jimmy G drawings came up with one for Hamlin.

I know Bart Scott was one to try and criticize Higgins, which is utterly ridiculous. I agree with you, standard tackle. Freak thing to happen. Hope he makes a full comeback.

Yeah makes no sense. There was nothing wrong, malicious, or illegal on that play. It was a standard football play.

Thanks to both of you, again, for this insight and information.

Who says lawyers and doctors are natural enemies?

Actually, given blizz's posts, maybe it should be dentists and lawyers....

My best friend is a lawyer , but lawyers were always my least favorite patients .

I love dentists. Lots of money and they make a lot of stupid business decisions.

Touche. I'd say necessary evil is an apt description
