Going to have to retract, probably, something... Welker had a concussion during Patriots-Broncos...

There are times I have to walk back from certain things.

Wes Welker just got his second concussion within a month today.

He was cleared after he suffered one...  in the game against the Chiefs.

So he had no business on the field for that punt in the first damn place against the Patriots.

"BUT THEY CARE ABOUT PLAYER SAFETY..."

Bull-shit.

Again, we are talking about a culture of football -- "BE A MAN.  BE A WARRIOR..."

So basically, who is clearing these guys?

Doctors for their own teams -- doctors with a vested financial interest in getting star players and first-teamers back on to the field as quickly as possible, consequences be damned.

Some free advice from myself and a reader of my blog on this subject:

If we are going to "care about Player Safety", this concussion shit stops.  Any "clearance" must start coming from the LEAGUE and neutral doctors, doctors with no interest that the Denver Broncos (or any other of the 32 teams) win the next week.

Because, and I'm sorry to have to say this to a nation of football maniacs, to win in life is more important than to win next week.
