Jason Pierre Paul is gonna be all right

Apparently you shouldn't launch fireworks from your head either.

A 22-year-old man celebrating the Fourth of July was killed instantly over the weekend when authorities said he tried to launch fireworksfrom atop his head.

Devon Staples had been drinking with family and friends Saturday night in Calais, Maine, a small town near the Canadian border, when he put a reloadable fireworks mortar tube on his head and threatened to light it.

His friends thought they had dissuaded him from doing it, and the next thing they knew, he ignited the fireworks and he was killed instantly.

Thank god for the internet.

 

Wow.  Tampa Bay CB C J Wilson doubles up on Jason Pierre Paul's performance.

 

I'm thinking there may be fireworks clauses in the 2016 rookie contracts.

Gotta thank the people who volunteer to be thinned from the herd

We never hear about the successful mortar tube head launches...

Can't play DL without good hands and a Kung Foo grip

 

Challenge accepted.

Henry! - Henry! - Hen ... wait.

 

Are you saying you are going to launch, or search the internet for some knucklehead who did and managed to survive?

JPP lost a finger today. Amputated.

Index fingers are overrated anyway.

Aside from pointing and pulling a trigger, they really aren't that important.

Er, picking noses? Hello?

you're one of those wierdos who picks his nose with his pinky, aren't you

Stinky pinky.  Learn to adapt.

It's classier.

 

You wouldn't understand.

Erudite gated community nose pickers.

READ THE COVENANTS!

 

Jeesh.

It'll be easier to get into a 3 point stance now

No more six shooter sack dances though.

Can't point the finger at someone else now, only at himself. Wonder what the new Giants' offer will be? One-fifth less? 

Monday Morning MD chimes in on JPP

He hasn't examined the guy, he's just going by what he's been able to read and his experience in the NFL

Well, there goes JPP's promising career as s brain surgeon.

Darwin awards aside, I wonder if the actuary tables take launching fireworks from your head into consideration.  I'm guessing not ........

Hey! He still has his thumb!

In a cast. 

Who blew his finger off with some bad ass fireworks?

 

This guy.

Somehow missed the fact that CJ Wilson, former Packer and current Buccaneer, also blew his hand up that same holiday.

 

Edit: Not the Former Packer, just the same name....

Thanks goodness it wasn't the former Packer. That would be one fat cornerback.

This just proves what we already knew.  We should not CAST JPP or CJ Wilson as a QB.  Once the fireworks started, their slow release got exposed. 

The "Hocker"?

 

Monday Morning MD with some interesting comments on JPP and other injuries around the league

http://www.nationalfootballpos...nows-before-the-mri/

 

"JPP pictures are worrisome. the way Jason Pierre-Paul’s hand is wrapped as he approaches one month out from injury is worrisome.

All along I have feared there may be more damage than what has been reported with the index finger ray amputation and thumb fracture. The way his hand is bandaged indicates damage to other fingers too. The question now is to what extent."

 

He also talks about how well the team docs do with their on-field exams, usually they know long before the MRI results come back

 

"Done correctly, physical exam is extremely accurate for major ligament and tendon tears like ACL, PCL, MCL, Achilles, shoulder labrum and distal biceps. MRI are not needed but often players and their agents still rely on them. Other times, it is away for the medical staff to be absolutely sure of the diagnosis or provide the team with a little extra time to ponder roster moves."

He's going JPP. Yeah, you know me!

Meh.
I don't know I can read all that just from the size of the cast.
It doesn't look radically different from the 'club' that CM3 wore with his thumb injury.

However, I am NOT a doctor and I did NOT stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night...

Doesn't that look like a nub where his thumb should be?

He could cause a lot of damage with that club. TT, trade for the man.

Looks like something you would wear if you blew the **** out of your hand with some serious fireworks.

The vicodin constipation surely isn't helping his transition to becoming a left-handed wiper

That's actually a sock over his penis. If this football thing doesn't work out, he's got options.
