“Don’t know if he did or didn’t” (have a concussion)

Well, his doctor said he did. is that good enough?

Why was James punished for having a concussion?

Why do you keep insisting he was punished? The coach has a rule that if you can't practice due to an injury, you do something else like strength training - adam couldn't do that either so he was put somewhere to wait - you think it was punishment, I say it wasn't. He had trainers watching him and his overindulgent daddy claims he was locked away. Does the fact that his daddy called constantly demanding more playing time for his little princess, as well as former players and former coaches backing up the story not ring as even remotely true to you? You want to believe a prima dona daddy who was out to get the coach because he woudln't release adam to play for another school.

Overwhelming evidence just sails right by you...

If the doctor said he had one then, yes, that's good enough.

He wasn't punished for having a concussion. If there was any punishment it probably stemmed from the fact that James always had injuries at very convenient times, like when it was time to practice. For whatever reason, those injuries always miraculously healed in time for the game. That type of behavior doesn't merit a lot of support from coaches or teammates.

When you cry wolf all the time, people pay less attention when you actually see one.
