Garb Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 Thank God. Really, take the year to figure things out. In the meantime, grab a clipboard, Coach Bruschi!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Savage69 Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 Teddy is gone for good!! When you sit out a year at 25 that's one thing..He'll be 33 before Pat Camp starts next year!! Who in their right mind would want a Defensive Player at that age to play again?? Qb's at that age yes but not a LB!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pats will ask him to stick around and then turn their backs on him next yr when they don't need him. there will be a giant spin story posted by the pats fans about how they didn't need Full tilt teddy to win anything.

I heard BB is going to offer Bruschi a coaching job. Somewhere BB found a cool mil to pay his salary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NapalmDeath Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 Having a stroke is a serious thing. Especially at his young age. As long as he stays in shape in his year off, and has no complications during that year, I see him playing next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PatsFanTX Posted July 21, 2005 Author Share Posted July 21, 2005 Like professional athletes just have strokes out of left field. What are you, some kind of friggn' moron? Bruschi had a hole in his heart since birth. It was completely documented that that was the cause of his stroke (along with a 6+ hour flight). Read what happened before you post outragious claims.

Jets28 Posted July 21, 2005 Share Posted July 21, 2005 Your not right this time Smizzy....not a good look for you darling. It's a shame he can't play this year. One thing I can say good about those Pats is that Bruschi is a great player and seems to be a class act. Sorry he has to miss out but his health is first and foremost. And anyone can have a stroke Smizzy. You can have one right now. Look at Luther Vandross he had one and he was slim and in "good health/shape" when he did. These ailments don't know age.

GimmeShelter Posted July 21, 2005 Share Posted July 21, 2005 Wonder if they re-sign Roman Phifer. At any rate best wishes for Bruschi. Smart decision on his part IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RSJ Posted July 21, 2005 Share Posted July 21, 2005 TX, I was looking at webmd and talking to my wife who is a RN and neither of us could find any info on how a murmur can cause a stroke. I also find it interesting that a professional athlete who sees a doctor as many times as someone of Bruschi's stature does wouldn't get this picked up. Especially since even the smallest and most harmless of murmur's can be heard very easily through a stethoscope. It would be extremly difficult for someone to get to the age of 10 let alone 31 with a serious enough murmur to cause a stroke. Just sounds fishy to me but JMO.
