    yes I did. I actually responded prior to seeing the chart since I was catching up on what I missed during the weekend in order. I looked up the facts myself and found the same chart prior to you posting yours and said I was surprised that CB was the highest and also found that's because 75% of them are due to poor tackling technique so it made sense. Because I'm willing to look at facts and do research myself and change my position. With that said, rolle always shied away from contact and had a reputation for it and that could be the reason why. But I've never been concerned personally about fields epilepsy. I'm not a doctor either, neither is anyone here we can all have our opinion on it like anyone else but I never once argued his medical condition is worth not taking him. It's up to the teams and their doctors and if I liked fields better then wilson i'd still want him personally after the medical thing came out. it's fair to call it a red flag but it doesn't bother me personally. again i'm not a doctor nor an expert on anything but all I can do is watch film over and over, i've changed my mind several times on players after watching more and more film. I'm very open to changing my mind or being wrong. just means I learned something new. you don't get "cool points" for being right on the internet. nobody cares when your right lol. I'm just in my own corner doing my own thing and if some posters get value from it then cool, if not no skin off my back. I enjoy watching film and discussing the players that's all. it's not about right or wrong. All I hope is that JD is right when he makes his picks

    You said "medical staff." Wouldn't they be the ones to attend to a person who suffered an epileptic seizure during a game?

    Is it? It's not the first time you've taken an epilepsy shot. I just don't want to hear any crying out of you the next time someone says retard.

    There is nothing to treat when someone has a seizure.

    Is there a more appropriate word for someone who is an epileptic or has an epileptic fit? I'm all ears.

    "Retard" is not an acceptable word. It's that simple. I'd say you know this, but I'm not sure that you do.

    He thinks he’s somehow hurting my feelings by cracking jokes about Fields epilepsy like I’m some kind of over sensitive Wilson supporter. Interesting that there are no “you are better than that” citations from the Thread police. Maybe they don’t think he’s better than that lol or just profiling.

    It's not the word. It's the cracks like the below at epilepsy and then crying over someone using the word twice at least now.

    I'm not cracking jokes. He truly has a medic condition called epilepsy. It could and should be a concern for a team spending the #2 pick on him.
    It wasn't really a crack. It's a thing you know.

    It's the context. Clearly you are making light of others that deal with It, In an attempt to degrade a young QB about to head into the NFL. Simply because you think It's a productive method In combating those that you have deemed obnoxious because of the way they carry themselves on this forum.

    You're not clever. It's not cute.

    My daughter deals with this condition.

    ..and I'm not going to limit her with whatever she choses to do with her life because of that condition. If she wants to be an athlete, she will be. If she doesn't, she wont.

    ..but I promise you, I am raising her so that people like yourself, won't dictate that decision for her. It will be because of what she wants to do for her life. It wont be because of others that want to tear someone down for something they can't help.

    I believe that's the way It should be for anyone, who live a life of their own, regardless of an inconvenient condition or not.

    I have thick skin. You're methods and opinions don't mean a thing to me, so, naturally you don't effect me.

    However. It's obvious what you are doing, stop pretending like you don't understand as well. You know what you're doing. I'm just calling you out. That's all.

    You couldn't be more wrong, even about Fields.

    If someone is contemplating paying your daughter millions of dollars to perform a physical activity that could be potentially impacted by epilepsy, they have every right to have a concern. As do the Jets with Fields or any other football team.

    We are all better then having this conversation. this is getting ridiculous. Some people and I won't name name becuase you know who you are, really need to look at your comments in this thread and realize you need to act your age and now your shoe size.

    or to put it in terms people can understand

    Bingo.

    you know how sad this is, instead of people talking about what they love about the prospect they like, it's degraded into a smear campaign where they are attacking the other prospect and the people who like them. If we just talked about what we liked about the prospects we liked and debated that, it would be cool, but shitting on fields for a medical condition or shitting on wilson for whatever dumb reason doens't do anything positive for anyone

    Speaking of listening, did you finally listen to Kurt Warner talk about Wilson’s propensity to predetermine his throws pre-snap?
