They “appear to have it.”

Interesting that of all the sports occurring across the world, almost all of which have resumed, only big ten football has this issue.

I also get carpal tunnel from jacking off too much. Might as well shut everything down over it and put a plug in me

I call bullshite.

LSU has one of those electro cardiogram things and not one player has shown symptoms of myocarditis.

Other big ten doctors have also refuted this doctors claims. Really sad a real MD is playing politics like this.

It's probably from all the hepatitis and chlamydia.

Was this one of the guys who “turned a blind eye” to the Jerry Sandusky scandal?

Yeah, I don't buy this bullshite AT ALL. Plus, the flu can and does cause myocarditis and we never felt the need to test athletes for that at any point prior to this year.

This is pure fricking propaganda sent out ahead of the purported re-vote tomorrow. It's unbelievable how many people desperately want to keep the world shut down. Particularly college football where NONE of the players are required to participate. They are free to skip the season without any reprisal.

The big ten and their liberal overlords are trying their damndest to keep us freedom loving people from watching college football. The first “study” they used to justify cancelling the season was denounced by a U OF M cardiologist, and now this click bait. You’re already not playing, just let the part of the country that’s not deathly afraid of COVID have some damn normalcy

Then why are they still practicing?
Games and practices/scrimmages are no different and your whole team is exposed everytime they leave practice

I agree. They are weak of heart for cancelling the season

VERY misleading title. A more accurate title would be

"Doctor sees apparent heart inflammation in 35% of COVID positive Big 10 athletes on an initial MRI. More information needed"

It’s funny that the players can decide for themselves to play with a risk of being paralyzed for life, but can’t decide if they want to risk this?

how does he know the numbers outside of psu? also, numerous dr's have already addressed this. it's an exceedingly rare condition that can also accompany the flu among other things. something about his story doesn't add up. the numbers he's quoting would be unprecedented

exactly. regarding the complications of infection his actual quote was "We don’t know that"

haven't they already been doing that all along? the risk of myocarditis has always been around. dr's have known about it already. c19 doesn't change that one bit

It seems to me the kids want to take a calculated risk for their own pleasure.

That’s a southern thing. Obesity leads to low T. The south is the most obese states in the country.
