I wonder if the guy who hit him will be charged with murder?
To: US_MilitaryRules
No.
Concussions are a cumulative effect. Corey Koskie and Justin Morneau come to mind.
(They’d have to charge everyone who ever hit him. )

It’s not unkind to engage in a little speculation.
The facts will speak for themselves.

Its not unkind to engage in a little speculation.Really? Then I think you're a jerk who knows nothing about hockey.
And maybe you're using steroids yourself, which leads you to think everyone does it.

Just making a point by using your own words against you.
Clearly you don’t care. I’m thinking it’s some psycholgical issue you have - either with mommy or daddy....

The real consequences of concussions dont usually take place until years down the road with diminished mental capacities. They dont usually kill at such young ages.
Your a funny dude. You know more than my Wife who is a Neurologist. Why don't you teach us about your vast neuroscience skills?

If you read the article, you will see he has been having bad headaches from a concussion, and couldnt stand bright lights.
Yep. I don't think our new troll is really interested in that.
Both Mr. Boogaard's and Mr. Crosby's concussions have not been really understood by the general public. I understand the privacy issues. The severity indicates serious closed head injuries including the possibility of intercranial hemorrhages.
I was waiting for the autopsy reports to come out. Thanks for stepping forward.

(UPDATE:
Mike Russo of the Star Tribune reports that the Boogaard family will donate his brain to the Boston University researchers who study brain disease in athletes.
Larry Brooks of the NY Post Tweeted that Boogaard was receiving counseling in the NHL/PA Behavorial Health/Substance Abuse Program at the time of his death.)

I already know that he died because of Oxi and booze.
Still a lifestyle choice.

“If the facts come in and steroids or other aid had nothing to do with it, Ill gladly apologize.”
“It is a fact that athletes do terrible things to their bodies to stay in the game and unless he was unusually talented in his position, hes probably not an exception.”
“Its also probably true. Athletes today do terrible things to their bodies to try and remain competitive. These things, like steroids, growth hormones, and other things. They wreck havoc with our mortal bodies some atheletes end up not living long lives or quality lives for the sake of a medal, or a cup, or a pennant, or a multi-million dollar contract.”
Hey, noob. Lifestyle choice ... steroids. You make a hellovalotta assumptions.
You are either a troll or a pr!ck ... maybe both.
C ya.

I don’t thinl of myself as either, but sure am a man of his word.
I am sorry for having accused Boogie for having taken steroids or other athletic aid, proven or unproven.
Good?
