that the media would stop putting Jerry all over the place about having a seizure. I know its the media but you'd wish that they wouldn't publicize something that is a private part of his life being that its a medical condition. But hey maybe that's just me.

If there's anything anybody else wants to talk about what they wish for this team, then go ahead. I just felt like I had to write that down somewhere. Gopherhole journal?? :D
 

The public should know! It comes to a point to where this is a liability to his job. If this keeps up i guarantee to it will hurt recruiting and create team distraction.

It will only hurt recruiting and create distractions if the media keeps making it a big deal and "asking questions." I am a firm believer that the news creates the stories sometimes rather than the other way around. Turn on ESPN and see for yourself.

Kill has dealt with this affliction for many years and been a successful coach, recruiter, husband, and much more. This is a personal medical condition and the only reason it's "public" is because it happened right after the game.
 

It's an easy story that writes itself for journalists. They can be a little lazy this week and not have to worry about digging for stories, just fall back on the seizure occurrence.
 

In all fairness though he had a VERY public and scary episode on national TV. I think if that is a large reason for the continued coverage of his condition, especially when it happens in public. Hope he's fine and it doesn't happen again but, unfortunately, it seems inevitable.
