Listening to Chad Hartman today.
He was talking with a caller about the Jake Brown accident.
In case you didn’t know, he had a 40 foot free-fall. From the article:
He slid limply down the last few feet of the transition and lay motionless for nearly five minutes. Everyone in attendance rose to their feet and waited for Brown to get up, which took some time.
They were talking about that last part: “waited for Brown to get up.” Guy has a 40′ fall. This is probably the only “sport” where medics didn’t immediately show up, put him on a stretcher, and send him off to the hospital.
Caller: “What could the medics have been doing that would have been more important than helping a guy that just had a forty foot fall?”
Chad: “Watching the replay?”
His sidekick, “Doogie,” has already called the Vikings first pre-season game (this Friday, I believe), a “Must win.”
