May every asshole in here that decides to turn this into a DC thread be permanently banned

yep

That black reporter on ESPN at the hospital has mentioned three times that he used to live in Cinci and lived “right down the street” from the hospital.

He also said that he had to vouch for Diggs to get into the hospital.

Dude, it’s not about you.

Copying this tweet from the other thread. It's been the only reported update that seemed to be substantiated (by folks like Rapoport).

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Update on Damar:<br><br>His vitals are back to normal and they have put him to sleep to put a breathing tube down his throat. They are currently running tests. <br><br>We will provide updates as we have them.</p>&mdash; Jordon Rooney (@jordonr) <a href="https://twitter.com/jordonr/status/1610116502845558784?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">January 3, 2023</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

Just read that there are no planned updates for tonight on his condition

Crazy. Hope he can recover. Can only imagine being a family member or friend and seeing that happen live. Here is what probably happened:

Thanks - added to the OP - and I'll update anymore relevant tweets to the thread header.

Just an awful situation. Prayers up.

Anyone know a BUF fan on one of their boards? Maybe you could let them know that we're praying with them over here.

Prayers up for sure. Horrific situation.

Because everyone should know how to do CPR
