More or less saying they created an unsafe condition in the dome.

I dont really take issue with it. Classic slip and fall due to unsafe conditions. You can get sued for not shoveling you sidewalk if someone slips and falls, dont see why the stadium owners cant be.

agree - just curious what the settlement will be

 

[Roboturner913]

I don't blame him, could be a career ender.

 

[zombie kopitar]

Wow, considering it already caused one other opposing player to take a pretty bad fall a few weeks before, it's completely justified imo

 

[CDJ]

I do not blame him in the least bit, he shredded his knee in a completely avoidable incident.

 

[Tuggy]

No problem with Bush doing that.

Exactly. Terrible.

 

[Hunter Gathers]

Awesome. Hope he wins.

I think if he's going this route there's a pretty good chance he's calling it a career. He's on a one year deal for $2.5M but if he's going to the trouble of all of this he'll probably want future earnings, no?

He was one his last legs and this will effectively end his career. This is totally avoidable, as well. Rams will be covering the concrete before their next home game so if that isn't an admission of negligence I don't know what is.

 

[Falco Lombardi]

I'm not saying this isn't a problem or anything like that, but that concrete has been there for 20 years as is and never was an issue. It had never once been an issue prior.

It only takes one incident, or in this case two.

Nothing could have occured and the concrete would have still been an issue.

yeah its not like he has NEVER been injured before. the guy pulls his groin putting on his socks

 

[Sports Enthusiast]

Men. His career and being relevant was kind of already over. Its unfortunate this guy never lived up to the hype of his NCAA career.

 

[Gene Parmesan]

Yeah but he didn't get injured on the field. It was on concrete that was entirely too close to the field.

That's besides the point. In this case his knee was tore because of the negligence of the Rams and their stadium.

Ditto.

Having a cement surface that close to the playing surface is just begging for something like this to happen. The only surprise is that it took so long for someone to shred their knee because of it.
