“I laugh with the guys because there’s about probably 15-20 vomits every day from offensive linemen. And it’s not because they are not in shape.” Call me crazy, but that sounds like at least 14-19 upchucks too many, MattDSchubert writes:
But if said hard work leads to consistent vomiting? Well, we might have a bit of a problem on our hands.The one-time coaching wunderkind, and current coaching disappointment,earlier this week that new offensive line coach Donovan Raiola is working his linemen so hard they’re throwing up more than a dozen times a practice.
It’s just about an annual occurrence that at least one football player dies of heat stroke while conditioning during the harsh summer months of training camp., with nine of those fatalities coming among offensive linemen. In the five-year period that preceded that, six of seven heat stroke deaths related to football claimed the lives of offensive linemen.It’s one thing to work to the point of exhaustion.
