It seems like a lifetime ago when "Jacked Up" was a regular ESPN segment

never going to see that anymore with all the talk of concussions and former players beign crippled

Sportsnation has the same kind of segment. And I remember a handful of plays this season where a player is clearly concussed and it's completely ignored by the people doing the highlight. Jimmy Graham falling on his neck is one instance. On ray Rice's 4th & 29 I think Boldin puts a ridiculous block on a dude and you clearly see dudes arms in the air stiff as a board, clearly concussed. NFL Live showed that play multiple times, even broke down every facet of the play including that block and didn't say shyt about it.

Lesbionest, the media doesn't give a fukk about concussions or player safety. It's just something to talk about. In fact, half the time they talk about these hits it's whether it was a good call or not as opposed to the player's well being.

I miss Jacked Up too. But of course they had to be PC and take it off with all the reports and lawsuits about concussions. It's not like they were glorifying injuries or concussions, they were just celebrating big hits. Which is what football is all about.
