Lance Briggs battling CTE

[Chicago Staleys]

I'm pretty sure in a couple years we will be reading about Cutler being diagnosed with CTE.

Without.

All I want to know is where is Poppa with an update? It's been like 5 hours since Camden roasted dude and he's abandoned this thread it seems.

Poppa, where you at? Did she or didn't she? Inquiring minds want to know.

He's also battling diabetes, but that isn't the flashy headline nowadays. Aids had its chance in the spotlight, then cancer, now it's CTE's turn..

Really can't wait for this BS to just blow over already..

You suck.

The fatality rates of BBQ fingers in the south is alarming

.....And for the kids at home, just in case you want to use CTE as an excuse...

"...There is currently no reliable way to diagnose CTE. A diagnosis requires evidence of degeneration of brain tissue and deposits of tau and other proteins in the brain that can be seen only upon inspection after death (autopsy)." -The Mayo Clinic.

What about black guys with Chronic traumatic encephalopathy/diabetes/alcoholism/BBQ fingers/Millions of dollars?

Well that's just funked up.

Brings was one of my favourite players.

Seems like you questioned her on it lol. "Babe, did you get railed on by Lance Briggs when you lived in his complex?"...."Of course not pumpkin you're the only one for me, besides I'm not into guys with big cocks that have a lot of money"

Dude, of course she's gonna deny it. But deep down you know it's true.

Dude, of course she's gonna deny it. But deep down you know it's true.

Maybe she'll develop CTE from her head repeatedly hitting Lance's headboard.

. because many people on this message board bought into the Emery/Trestman bullshit destruction of our team. Briggs fought it and they ran him out of town. Briggs got bad deal here and the asses keep their nonsense going.

Briggs never got a bad deal here. Got paid and played great in a D perfectly suited to him for a decade. He can be a great player and still just be hanging around his last year.

 

[CHICAGOMIDWAYMONSTERS]

Not too sure why people are making jokes about something as serious as CTE and ESPECIALLY for a dude who played his ass off for your favorite NFL team. Pretty disappointing to see.

Seriously...you all are dumb as $hit

This guy for real? Get out of here

Seems like it was just yesterday he was still in a Bears uni.

This is the battle of his life - when he was with the Bears he was just battling laziness and general douchery . . .

. . . In all seriousness, this is sad to hear. Hopefully he can find a way to keep it under control . . .

 

[Mdbearz]

The drinking might be a way to try and cope with the CTE.

I know Briggs played hardball with his contracts, but the dude played his ass off for the Bears.

I hope he does not have CTE, and can get his drinking under control.

 

[cobra302]

Godspeed, Lance. You played your heart out for the Bears for years. Here's hoping you come out of this well.

 

[chitown2387]

Glad to see the last two posts are wishing Briggs well

 

[Bearly]

I hope we all do. Agree about him bringing it every game until maybe his last season but he never got a 'bad deal' here. In fact, he got a privileged pass for drunky crashing.

Not talking about contract bad deal. Talking about bringing in ultra soft management, tearing apart the defenses image, and putting him into a girly Trestman environment. He couldn't cope in that absurd environment and fans turned on him harshly.

I thought you was better than that and can see that. Oh well
