ESPN.com is reporting that Patriots linebacker Tedy Bruschi may have suffered stroke-like symptons when he was admitted to the hospital earlier in the week.

I hope this is nothing too serious. Bruschi is a great player and a classy guy. That image of him playing with his kids on the field in Jacksonville sticks out in my mind.| Promote this thread! |           | Gugs

"He is the most overrated piece of crap in the league. He bitched and whined after he got his ass beaten in New England last year, so the NFL changed the rules. Then he got his ass beaten in New England again. Every year he's the top MVP candidate. Every year he's supposed to be the best. Every year he's going to carry the Colts to the Super Bowl. And every single year he goes to New England and gets his ass beaten. And his brother's a whiny little bitch." -A friend of mine, on Peyton Manning

I hope he gets well soon.

| #6 Posted on 21.2.05 0932.19 | Instant Rating: 5.48 | Not to minimize your comment, Lexus, but I think that's why I like him so much. He wasn't a "name" for so long. He wasn't a name, then part of a team. For a lot of people, they knew the team, then the name. I follow the team, so this hits harder than it would for most. But I like to think there are lots of other people pulling for him because he was just a guy, and sometimes he was just a guy who did a helluva lot, even though he didn't get mic'd for ESPN Sunday night or anything else. He was just good. Hell, there are a lot of people who deserve that distinction and never get it, unless they get hurt. Tedy got both. I wish he hadn't gotten the latter.
Pull through, Tedy. Best wishes to you, even from a message board.

Some people bounce back just fine after time has passed. Some never do. Here's hoping he does...and is then traded to a team I like. :) | JoshMann

Well, the Rams could use ANY type of run-stopper. :P
