Hey guys, thanks for watching! Let me know what moments I should include in Volume 2.
Great job I’d love to hear about the guys that have been acccused and even conflicted of murder or aggravated assault I.e. aqib talib guys like that. I heard Alvin Lamar’s had almost killed a man prior to NFL way before his pro bowl incident.. things like that are for me. I enjoyed the latent tunsil draft saga, that was super interesting into the whole ole miss and college bag men fiasco
Dude just finished the whole video great job nice digging good story telling. I’m in
@@brandongrieco4982 Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it.
Great and introspective video. If you do plan a part two, maybe Michael Irvin nearly stabbing a teammate with a pair of scissors over a haircut
Yo I just discovered your channel and your commentaries are great. Come back!
I’ve met Chris Henry’s mom on a couple different occasions. She’s a great woman, she comes to some of the games still, she always has her sons jersey on a drapes a big blanket across where she’s sitting of a portrait of Chris. She’s a tuff lady, that if you get in a conversation with her, will ALWAYS bring up the risks of the nfl and being happy within your relationships. Really good hearted woman
@Mad Max she was at the game Thursday night vs the Dolphins. I didn’t see her personally but I saw the Chris Henry blanket from my seats❤️
ffs just spell "tough"
🤦♂️
She must be doing it to bring awareness and remind league and team staff and players of what can happen
Am honestly amazed that Chuck Hughes was the only NFL player to die on the field given the brutality that other players have been subjected to. Am glad Detroit honored him and that his wife got a settlement. But that's small comfort.
RIP Chuck
Must of been different owners today owners sued Barry Sanders & Calvin Johnson
My sister was at the game, which was her first and last NFL game.
In the early days of football (long before the NFL) there were so many fatalities that the sport was nearly banned.
They thought that legalizing the forward pass would reduce serious injuries by spreading the players out.
@@nedcassley5169 there were a lot of deaths in College football games, in early days. Football was almost banned in College.
@@aspenrebel I have a family connection to that era. My grandmother's grandmother's brother was a Republican delegate from Minneapolis [whose son played for Yale 1902-05 and later helped coach the lads up for big games] who was a supporter of Teddy Roosevelt [whose son was injured playing for Harvard]. It was very brutal in those days. The forward pass was allowed in 1906 with the hope that it would make the sport less dangerous.
If Chris Henry had CTE with no history of concussions just imagine how bad it must be for AB...
It's so great that parts of Chris saved 4 lives. I am an organ donor, who else is?
Or every player.
The NFL had a chance to change the game with the lockout, but I he wanted to keep the game as it was to protect they cash flow.
Players make enough money now that they can get lawyers to make this an issue for the NFL someday.
Damn he died loving his ol lady!! I know she gotta feel baad or if not jus a skanless bitch!!
Why wouldn't she stop??? Skanless tramp but I bet she want some of his NFL $$$ if he got any@@>!! RIP Henry n I c his kids doin good!!
It’s called mental illness bro
I remember watching an NFL pregame show when they showed a clip of the roomful of people who were alive because of Chris Henry’s organ donations and commentator James Brown absolutely weeping uncontrollably after the segment! As a lifelongsuffering Cincy Bengal fan it was a very emotional moment as I was crying along with him!
The Chris Henry having no known concussions thing is scary in 2 different ways.
1. As mentioned in the video, the notion that you don't need to receive these big concussions to end up with CTE
2. He very well could have had numerous & they were just simply never caught or never reported (potentially to keep him in the game).
As for the latter I know 0 diagnosed concussions doesn't always mean anywhere close to the truth. My folks never took head trauma seriously when I was growing up. It wasn't until I got a devastating concussion playing club rugby in college that I finally saw a doctor for a blow to the head. I told the club sports doctor prior hits to the head I had experienced including 3 KOs. He determined this had been my 7th concussion & I was medically retired immediately from all collision sports.
Hope ur doing ok now man that's good that u stepped away from the sport for ur health cte is definitely something that should be taken away more seriously thanks for sharing be safe 🙏
That's a lot of incidents, I hope you're doing well. Yeah, the fact he had no diagnosed concussions doesn't mean he was never symptomatic, given how much head trauma has been ignored in sports codes. However, the really scary thing about CTE is the accumulation of subconcussive blows over time. We're talking countless smaller impacts that might not present any noticeable symptoms. Those are just as dangerous when they start to add up.
I’m sorry you went through that. That’s brutal and I hope you’re well. The head trauma aspect of football is incredibly concerning. I had one in 9th grade playing the Oklahoma drill and it was because my coaches wouldn’t let me exit the drill until I stopped someone. The hit that caused it was applauded by my coaches. “That’s how you hit someone!” That planted the seed I didn’t know if I wanted to keep playing. Then, in tenth grade, I started at safety and this kid who ended up playing TE at an SEC school (6’4 250) was coming downhill at me (6’ 150) and I was bringing this guy down as he put his shoulder down when I started to feel something I never felt in my knee… it felt like I was popping my finger but it was my knee and I just let go. I was really close to tearing ligaments in my knee and I was lucky I only hyper extended it. I quit a few weeks later after that. I played from 3rd to 10th grade and had zero regret. I am now a basketball fan.😂
I'm surprised Jovan Belcher wasn't mentioned. He killed his gf and committed suicide outside of Arrowhead in front of his coach and gm.
He grew up near where I live. What a shame. Kid screwed up bad.
Yeah it's a horrifying thing
That made shockwaves across the Kansas City community.
I'll keep this in mind for Volume 2. Thanks!
@@DarkSideFootball1 also Junior Seau man! Great content
The Jeff Alm story has a lot of mystery within it. Being a part of the emergency response crew for Harris County for years, my father heard many rumors from that ill fated evening. Never fully confirmed, but there is a belief that Alm’s passenger, Lynch, was more than a friend due to the evidence at the scene of the accident.
Multiple different oilers did say that there was “a few” know (to the team at least) homosexual players on the team during that season. Maybe Alm was one of them, but it most likely will never be known.
There were two members of the team (whose names have remained undisclosed) who were known in the locker room to be gay.
@@sjdss nah, it was glitter and a bucket of flamboyant flag wavers.
yea as a bi person myself the whole time i was thinking it sounded like a secret romance. Truly tragic. Explains why Alm was horrified enough to kill himself after the crash
@@chaseh9499 You might be right, but I think the booze in his system may have been a factor as well. UrinatingTree's video on the 1993 Oilers season mentioned how Alm was known to be rash and tempermental at times, especially when under the influence of alcohol.
New Fav Channel. I love hearing mysterious NFL Stories before bed.
Your are a mix of Mr. Nightmare, Lazy Masquerade 5 Point, and Urinating Tree all rolled into one with this story
Thanks for your support! I have a new video coming soon.
You should include more stories like this it doesn't have to be darkest stories it could be historic stories or funny stories
I’m from Houston and I often drive on the road where Jeff died they have a little cross with both of their names under the overpass with some pictures and an oilers helmet on a sign
These videos are absolutely mind blowing content. Keep up the good work mate!!!🍻
My prayers goes out to bills defender Damar Hamlin and his family 🙏 It didn't look like a bad tackle but as with any contact sport injuries are commonplace but not this. RIP Chuck Hughes he should never have been allowed back on the field after a wrong diagnosis by hospital staff. Hallelujah that in 2023 the paramedics are on hand that fingers crossed has saved Hamlins life. 🤞
Dear Lord, similar for Tua. I hope he is ok. Let's also pray for Peyton Hillis, who is in the icu after saving his kids🙏 So glad Damar is better; all these prayers helped! And also respect to every single responder and carer; prayers for them too🙏
Clot shot.
There's a guy called Brian Sutterer that covers sports injuries, and he talks about how it resulted from getting hit in the chest at the exact moment for his heart to stop.
Since we know now he's fine, I recommend watching that video
It was the cov*d jab
@@bradshdy456no it isn't get back to your basement you nut
This was amazing, id like to see you pursue mini doc/analysis videos like this one
This deserves the “algorithm treatment”. Great video!!
To be fair, Chuck Hughes had heart problems he never knew about, the nfl just didn’t know, also back then a fair hit would be considered a penalty, it’s such a shame
Love the new commentaries. But I better see you get back to those hardest hit videos too😎
I’m so glad my CZcams recommendations had one your videos. I’m obsessed.
these videos are awesome bro. keep making them!
As a Houston boy, the Oilers story has other lascivious details. Sad end, and that was our best season ever ended sadly in the div. round vs KC.
I highly recommend UrinatingTree's video on the '93 Oilers for anyone who wants to know more about the team. It's an excellent piece of work.
Wow all these years of watching football as a young boy and then well into adulthood I never knew who chuck Hughes was and I never knew that an NFL player died on the field of play.
I work in substance abuse treatment and have met a few former NFL players. Every single one of them had some form of neurological damage and coped with substance use
this was a good video, very informative & more ppl need to know abt these. quality content 👏
I'm glad you enjoyed it, it really means a lot
your videos are awesome man please keep them coming!!!!
More to come!
I absolutely love this channel
Keep it up
Antonio brown will end up a horror story. his brain is so F'D UP
It really is. None of his craziness really occurred until after that huge hit Vontaze Burfict out in him years ago.... between that and other hits....
AB has CTE I will never back down from that. That hit changed everything involving his demeanor
Wow, I never knew about the Bengals player. I thought Aaron Hernandez was the youngest.
Are we, Patriots, ever going to get him back from his neck injury?
How about Randall Woodfield who was drafted by the packers and was a serial killer? Anthony Smith who was a pretty good defensive player for the raiders that was a mass murderer.
I'll keep this in mind for volume 2. Thanks!
Wow as a Raiders and true crime fan I've never heard of the Anthony Smith story. Gotta look it up. What about Robert Rozier he was linebacker that played with the Los Angeles Rams joined a racist cult and killed I think 3 people maybe 4.
Didn't know the alm story. Damn. Good content sir. I remember Henry. Good wr. Sad story
Awesome Video You definitely gotta do more Doucementary style videos keep up the great work 👍
Thanks so much. I have something in the works that I think you will really like. Stay tuned!
@@DarkSideFootball1 ok can't wait
You were getting hella views IDK what happened? I think YT F-ed with the algorithm again and it's hurt your channel. I hadn't been getting updates. Hope you keep putting out content.
I have a new vid dropping September 7th. Thanks for your support!
Wow. These stories are so freakin sad. Unbelievable... if we make the NFL with no wearable gear like Rugby, there might be less injuries. Maybe one day but its just so sad wow. Those last 2 stories took some heart strings.
Bro shut up lmao
No because back in the days without the nfl alot of people died, got seriously injured in fact this was the reason why the forward pass was invented, so the players could be spread out
really good video bro
I am from the UK , I do not watch American football or know any of the rules.
But I do enjoying watching your videos. Cheers mate 👍👍
Randy gregory was right, Cowboys fans are toxic AF lmao
As a cowboys fan the number 1 thing i hate is other cowboys fans
thank you for adding the drunk driving memo at the end way too many innocents have lost their life due to stupid mistakes by another
Joe Montana actually had a disorder similar to CTE. That’s why when he got sacked in his last game, It was sort of soft and he was benched for 3 years before going to the Chiefs.
No he didn’t. He had a concussion but that was the least of his problems
I knew Chris Henry. He was a funny guy. We playsd for different rival Highschools. He played for Belle Chasse and I for Port Sulphur. He laid me out on a kick return once and we laughed about it later. I think his girlfriend killed him. I've always thought that.
He was brain damaged lmao quit writing anti-woman fanfic
Wow that's serious I hope that's not true but if your right abs girl doesn't need to read this lol!!
Can’t believe this popped up on my timeline. Prayers up to Damar Hamlin 🙏🏼🙏🏼
I was going to comment the same thing. Damn, CZcams.
Clot shot.
My prayers go out to Peyton Hillis who the nfl purposely don't mention. Who's on life support for saving his kids from drowning. Not 1 mention from the nfl were he played for 4 years
I agree, that’s a shame, but my man Joe Delaney (#37 Chiefs) drowned trying to save 3 little boys who were in trouble in a pond in Louisiana, the Chiefs are big winners now (not the 9 years I had season tickets) and you hear a-lot about what hero’s Mahomes and crew are, but I’ve NEVER once heard mention of Mr. Joe Delaney, a true selfless American hero, just like Pat fucking Tillman 🔥
NOT TRUE-They mentioned Hillis on the NFL station
@@koolkitties8552didn’t he just show up at the browns stadium?
Why UK stock footage at 7:26?
I remember the jeff alm incident it was really sad. rip to both
Can you do best form tackles in nfl history or something like that
Chris Henry was a beast too he was really starting to break out too. Sometimes they say all the little hits to the head are worse than major concussions. I think the fiancé takes some of the blame for the situation though. Definitely coulda been avoided. But who knows it might have been her in a casket and not him
As a lifelong Bengals fan, this was so sad. I actually welled up & tears came from my eyes, when I heard the news on SportsCenter that day. Man! First thing o ur of my mouth was, “…and he was JUST turning his life around, too, man!” So, I’m glad you made sure to include that.
Secondly, I’ve never once heard anyone say he did, or even _could_ have, _jumped._ I can honestly say I’ve never heard (or read) anyone say that.
From my understanding, it was always _known_ he was _thrown/flung_ out of the truck bed.
2:57-6:24: This is EERILY similar to Damar Hamlin's story, right down to the Buffalo Bills being involved at some point! D:
I'm now convinced that Buffalo sports teams are cursed: in 1989, while he was playing for the Sabres, an NHL goalie named Clint Malarchuk very nearly died on the ice after getting his throat slit! 20 years later, another player would suffer a similar injury in the Sabres' arena.
Yeah, I'd say Jeff Alm was pretty inseparable from his friend. D:
Also kicker Steve Little, a no.1 pick for the Cardinals who was a bust and lost his job to Neil Odonohue(sp?) in a contest in practice. He went out and got drunk that night and went off the interstate and hit a road sign which paralyzed him from the waist down. He died in the last couple of years
I noticed you changed the description to pray for Damar. I hope he is alright.
I had a dozen concussions, atleast five severe by high school, most from playing football. Now fifty ive struggled with life long depression, pain, narcotics dependence, memory loss, etc. But killing someone i love has never entered my mind, nor violence of any kind.
While CTE is real and serious it also is often z catch all excuse for ppl acting immaturely and in ugly ways. Ex NFL players whove been lauded their whole life often have maturity issues after retirement, throw in srug abuse and often violent natures and its hard to tell uow much is CTE and how much is being an ass
Jesus loves you and He cares! He died to sacrifice Himself for our sins! Trust in Him
Welp gotta include the bengals vs bills game
Fantastic and enlightening. Great video man
I'm getting whiplash from all the times you change tense in a sentence.
The Alm story is just freaking crazy.
really interesting video
You shoulda done a chapter for when the Browns did a handoff on 4th and 19
Dont Drink & Drive? That is so old and does not mean a thing. The new slogan is DONT DRINK. It really is that simple.
I live a mile from AT&T Stadium. And didn't know anything about that shooting.
Never heard of the Chuck Hughes story until it was brought up after the Demar Hamlin incident. Sad story.
How Awful & sad !! I remember Chuck Hughes passing, & Chris Henry, but never heard of the Jeff Alm story. Did he have CTE & they didn’t know it at the time? I Love football, but it’s not worth your life! No matter how much $$ you make! I did see a quick clip of the Steelers offensive lineman Jeff Strelszak (spelling) & remember his car accident on the 90 between Rochester & Buffalo. Another sad story!! 💔😔
Jeff Alm might have the strangest death in sports history
I quit football after playing from 3rd grade to 10th grade. I knew in 10th grade that was a great decision. I only had one serious concussion (that I know of) and I remember how it happened because of my friends looking out for me. 9th grade, Oklahoma drill. I kept getting beat by the running backs because I was a safety and they were some big guys. The coaches were roasting me, saying I was not leaving that drill until I actually tackled someone. After like 5 guys got past me and the coaches were going in on me I got so mad I just snapped and blew up our first string once it was his turn again and then BAM head starts ringing and I’m seeing tv static with tunnel vision. I get up and the coaches were like “NOW THATS HOW YOU HIT SOMEONE”. My friends were hyped up I finally got a big hit but they said I looked like I had 1000 yard stare when I got back in line.
The mob mentality is such an interesting topic! Glad this made the cut
That photo haunted Butkus. People got the wrong impressions. A real tragedy what happened to Chuck Hughes.
As much as I like football people don't really understand that magnitude of the brutal hits and what it does to a player who both hits and suffers the hit. I found out just how damaging a concussion can be. My son played middle School football and suffered from a concussion due to a hit to the head. I picked him up back at the middle school he went to after the team came back there after the game. The coach told me he had a concussion. My son laid down in the backseat, and I took him to the hospital where they confirmed a concussion. For a whole year he could not stop having migraine headaches so I told him I don't want you playing football anymore. As a parent who saw the consequences of suffering a concussion playing football, I really pray that they stop kids from playing tackle football due to the dangers it can cause in brain injury.
RIP Dick Butkus
I remember the game in which Chuck Hughes died. It filled the sports pages at the time. The one thing I didn't remember was the opposing team ( Chicago ), and the fact that although Dick Butkus was present, he had nothing to do with Hughes' collapse. According to the video, Butkus never touched him.
Bro after the first one im crying 😢
Kinda surprised the Aaron Hernandez story wasn't among these
I think that’s because it’s already well known
More stories
Every sports league has its dark history.
Rip nfl players😢
6:12 The lions will occasionally let someone wear 85, but it rarely happens
The human body no matter how toned and fit can't endure for very long the brutally of professional football
These are sad and tragic stories of individuals who happen to be NFL players.
Don’t forget about Kenny McKinley, and O.J Murdock
Talk to Gabe Riveria about drinking and driving.
Sad.
The person probably would've survived without Henry's corneas.
What really sucks about thd Henry situation is that team mate and oft atrested CB Pacman Jones vowed to guide and mentor Henry's son. Of all 52 other Bengals, Jones is best suited for this task?
I feel like mike Webster story should be on here
Junior Seau head butted a medical assistant in San Diego that cut the guy across the forehead. They had to staple his skin back together. People from San Diego back in the day know what I'm talking about.
Hardest hits preseason week 1?
This video has some grade-A B-roll
Can someone tell me more about Scarthorax 🥺
chris henry could of got cte from hitting his head as a baby
The fact that a FanDuel Sportsbook Ad pop ups to view this is coincidentally sad, but accurate
Can you imagine if the head slap was still legal it'd be cool but not for the receiver
Still think there's shit behind Jr. Seau's suicide
Why does that brain look like Albert Einstein ? 9:35
Michael Irvin stabbing his teammate in the neck?
Peer pressure is a dangerous thing
I don’t know why I am watching this when I last watched The Saints win the SuperBowl
The first shooting basically has nothing to do with nfl
Alm, like many other players, had CTE.
no aaron hernandez?
If the NFL wants to hide these stories, why do the Lions have a Chuck Hughes award?
CTE, though, I agree that they downplayed a long time
no mike vick?
Big Bruce on citas
That’s NOT why Alm shot himself.
I will never forget the 1993 Houston oilers, mist dysfunctional team in NFL history
