THE CATASTROPHIC INCIDENT involving Buffalo safety Damar Hamlin on "Monday Night Football" brought terrible memories back to more seasoned Bears fans.

On Sunday afternoon, Oct. 24, 1971, at Detroit's Tiger Stadium, Lions wide receiver Chuck Hughes became the only NFL player to die on the field during a game.

Hughes, 28, suffered a fatal cardiac event late in the fourth quarter of a game vs. the Bears. He had just run a medium pass route as Detroit QB Greg Landry attempted to rally the Lions from a 28-23 deficit.

Less than a minute remained in the game when Hughes collapsed at the 16-yard line of Chicago. Bears middle linebacker Dick Butkus immediately, frantically signaled for help.

The Lions medical staff raced onto the field. Hughes was inanimate. On Detroit's WJR-AM, play-by-play man Van Patrick speculated, "It appears to be some kind of neck injury."

As a doctor began mouth-to-mouth resuscitation and chest pumping in full view of 54,000 fans, Patrick said, "This looks quite serious."

EVENTUALLY, A STRETCHER WAS brought onto the field. As Hughes was taken off, he was unconscious and viewers watching the CBS regional telecast saw his left arm limply flop.

Charlie Kirk Branded 'Human Garbage' Over Damar Hamlin Remarks​

BY GIULIA CARBONARO ON 1/3/23 AT 4:32 AM EST

Outgoing Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-IL) bashed conservative activist Charlie Kirk for his comments fueling anti-vaccine conspiracy theories after football star Damar Hamlin suffered a cardiac arrest during the first quarter of a match against the Cincinnati Bengals on Monday night.

Hamlin received on-field medical attention for more than half an hour before being taken to a local hospital, where he's now in a critical condition. According to a statement by the Buffalo Bills, his heartbeat was restored on the field.

In a tweet, Kirk claimed that the collapse of the 24-year-old Buffalo Bills player fits in a series of recent incidents involving "athletes dropping suddenly," something he said has become an "all too familiar sight right now."

This is a tragic and all too familiar sight right now: Athletes dropping suddenly.

Kirk's comment, as many responding to his tweet picked up on, fuels fears and concerns over COVID-19 vaccinations making people sick, a theory that anti-vaccine proponents in the U.S. and the rest of the world have been pushing forward for the past couple of years.

"You are absolutely the biggest piece of human garbage that can possibly exist right now. I literally think you are done now," Kinzinger wrote on Twitter.

"Using this tragedy for your BS lies is sick."

The representative, who served on the Jan. 6 committee, said: "Sick disgusting human beings. This isn't politics this is straight up heartless, cold, evil."

Kirk, the founder of conservative youth activist organization Turning Point USA (TPUSA) and its affiliate Turning Point Action (TPA), has been promoting vaccine resistance among youth, trying to rally young people against getting vaccinated.

Since 2021, Kirk has shared unverified reports of side effects allegedly caused by the COVID-19 vaccines, once saying that he wasn't "anti-vaccine" in general, but that he was "against the mandating of the [COVID-19] vaccine." He said that he chose not to get vaccinated against COVID-19.

In a video posted on Facebook in October 2022 titled "Exposing What the Media Won't Tell You About COVID Vaxx Side Effects," Kirk claimed that the vaccines were developed "too fast" and were "rushed into market" without proper trials and checks.

He also claimed that the COVID-19 vaccines have caused an "unusual spike in vaccine adverse events, in myocarditis, in heart-related issues."

This claim, as well as the previous one about vaccines being developed too quickly, was labeled as "misleading" by Health Feedback, a non-partisan, non-profit organization dedicated to science education.

The NFL game was suspended about an hour after Hamlin's collapse. Fans are waiting outside the hospital where the Buffalo Bills player is recovering, holding candles and wishing Hamlin a speed recovery.

Hamlin's representative Jordon Rooney wrote on Twitter that the player's "vitals are back to normal and they have put him to sleep to put a breathing tube down his throat.

"They are currently running tests. We will provide updates as we have them."

I have only known of last night's medical emergency for fifty minutes.

And only for the last twenty minutes have I known of Adam Kinzinger's stupid, Leftist whining.

Kinzinger demonstrates the thing he innaccurately whines about.

It is COMPLETELY appropriate to wonder OUT LOUD AND TO LARGE NUMBERS OF PEOPLE if Hamlin's medical distress might have been influenced by the vaxx.

No it's not. There is no evidence that I can affect anyone like that. You godbotherers have relied on divine intervention to keep you safe but those 500000 Jesus junkies that died were ignored.

The only reason a Vax is not required in you is that no self respecting virus would live there and it certainly wouldn't affect your brain.

not really. is there any evidence it had anything to do with his condition? or is it just more right wing anti-covid vaxx hate. Its obvious which it is

why didn't you wonder if he was infected with covid?
Their findings, published in the peer-reviewed journal Nature Cardiovascular Research, suggest that a small percentage of patients vaccinated against COVID-19 may develop postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome, or POTS. The investigators also found that those diagnosed with COVID-19 are five times more likely to develop the same cardiac condition after infection than after vaccination, emphasizing the importance of the vaccine.

In young people, heart problems are often caused by viral infections such as COVID-19, says Dr. Johnson.

“A young person is much more likely to get myocarditis or pericarditis from COVID-19 itself than they would from a COVID-19 vaccine,” she says.


why didn't you ask if he was NOT vaccinated, moron? or if he been infected with covid?



kirk: "In a tweet, Kirk claimed that the collapse of the 24-year-old Buffalo Bills player fits in a series of recent incidents involving "athletes dropping suddenly," something he said has become an "all too familiar sight right now.""

"all too familiar"? start naming them. go! lol

A total of 19,740 autopsies were completed in the study period: 12,395 in subjects age 18-65 years (adults) and 385 in subjects age 7-17 years (children). There were 201 sports-related adult deaths at an incidence rate of 0.76-1.49 per 100,000 participant-years. Of the deaths, 74% were witnessed. Of the adult cases, 68% (n = 136) were due to cardiac causes, with coronary artery disease the most frequent cause (n = 90 [45%]). Structural abnormalities were common in adult cardiac deaths; 51 (38%) had cardiac weight ≥500 g, and 75 (55%) had left ventricular wall thickness >15 mm

australia averaged 20 deaths per year in sports in the time period BEFORE covid, 14 per year due to heart conditions. and that was deaths, not including cardiac events not leading to death.

our population is much larger than australia. So while very uncommon, they are far from unknown, and all this happened before covid vaccinations. duh

Kinzinger thinks no one should ask questions about any possible cause and effect.

Why shouldn't the possibility be explored, Rep. Kinzinger?

The reason why not is because you have inserted politics in your perception of this.

he said exactly that?

Never ask the question until you know the answer. Unnecessary inquires have very long tenticles.

The reason why not is because you have inserted politics in your perception of this.

no, the problem is that kirk jumped to a lower probability politics based question, instead of asking about higher probability reasons for the cardiac event. duh.

unless you morons can prove that being covid vaccinated is the highest probability reason for what happened? go for it, morons.
