    Yup... and there was one other bruised lung in Week 2.

    Mingo needs to get thicker. Another 10 to 20 lbs on that upper body ought to do it.

    The question is, where did the hit come from? Blindside cheapshot on the #1 rookie?

    Or, just a pile up? How'd he get hit?

    Seems to me the PD's readers would be better served reading a quote from the Dr who actually treated Mingo or one of the world class thoracic surgeons from the Cleveland Clinic, Who cares what Dr Clark from California thinks?

    I stated a couple weeks ago that Mingo looked lean. A 10-20 pound weight gain couldn't hurt.

    Poor Mingo. Maybe he shouldn't be playing fucking football if he is so fragile.

    so you think he a pussy or what? He never said anything I heard that would make me believe that. No one is immune to injuries in such a violent sport. Could he use a little bulking up? Maybe, but fragile I think is a little much

    i mean aren't players afforded the best equipment possible?

    when are they going to come out with the kevlar upper body vest?

    QBs wear the flak jackets. why not other players?

    Right- the guy didn't treat Mingo. "Bruised lung" in medacalese is way too vague. If you mean hemothorax, yes people can die from them.

    He's fer sure going to be in the hurt locker for awhile. A rib/lung injury is fairly high up on the pain meter and it is not like you can stop breathing so the damn thing can heal. I'd say the pain is equivalent to getting kicked in the nutz or dislodging a jammed ice cube in the blender without turning it off or unplugging.

    He's getting the good stuff in the hospital, i.e. fentanyl, dilaudid

    60 push ups

    90 sit ups
