Impactful Thoughts from a former pro football player
Brand New GZR as we get the "Sackmaster" Silas Demary on the show to discuss the impact on players after a traumatic experience on the football field. Andy and Silas both relive April 10, 2005 when Al Lucas sadly passed away from an injury that occurred during an Arena Football League game. How the league handled it. How the organization dealt with it as well. How it still impacts us today. Brand new co-host James Moore also discusses how fans dealt with Damar Hamlin's cardiac episode. We ask Silas whether it would have been mentally possible to play a game after witnessing Hamlin's event while playing. We finish up talking about Silas Demary Jr's commitment to University of Southern California and go down memory lane.
