Comments on: METS: How long has Ryan Church been having concussions? http://www.gettingpaidtowatch.com/2008/07/07/mets-how-long-has-ryan-church-been-having-concussions/ Politics, Education, Culture, and oh....the Mets. A former athletic trainer for the NY Mets, the writer still follows his team while offering his own unique outlook on politics. A life long GOP conservative, this high school teacher has departed from his party roots and takes issue with the Florida GOP's legislative agenda on education. Recent favorite topics involve Florida's controversial education reform bill SB 6, local efforts to defeat Allen Boyd (D) FLA 2nd and the Florida Senate race.

By his own admission, he suffred one when colliding with the wall in Pittsburg during 2005. It worth questioning his history of migraine headaches as their presence is consistent with second impact syndrome. I can find no fault with the manner the Mets medical staff in their care for Church. I wonder if they were aware that Church had a history of concussions and perhaps migraines when they acquired him.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('4847','bobsikes'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('4847','bobsikes','Church went on the DL as a result of a concussion he suffered during spring training this season.

Lots of guys have had a concussion, with no ill effects. Church went on the DL with his previous injury, so the Mets knew about it. The bigger issue is that Church has had one more concussion than we thought. Everything I have seen about concussions is that the more you have, the worse off you will be, and the better the chance of post-concussion syndrome. Just adds more fuel to the worrying of Met fans that Church is done for the year.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('4846','tarheelcoach'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('4846','tarheelcoach','I don\'t see this as an issue.
