Good and I'm happy. We will have him for the Bills game and I hope he comes in and does great. His veatran leadership alone will carry this team to the playoffs.
Hopefully he's at full health to do this, wouldn't want to see another repeat of that stroke, thats some serious stuff, if he plays...God be with him on Sunday
I honestly cannot see him coming back at close to what he once was. But even so he would be an upgrade over your current linebackers.Just pray he doesnt have another stroke from taking the roids.

I never would have thought, wow, just wow, I just lost A LOT of respect for Bruschi if thats true
I bet he won't be the same player he was before. I mean, after you just had a stroke? cmon.. I'm not just saying that because I have no respect for him but I just think he needs to wait a little awhile so he doesn't get any worse. you know?
I can't find any articles saying that was the cause of his stroke. Could you please give me one to cite where that comment came from?I found sites with suppositions, but none confirming the possibility.To me, he is the LEAST likely football player in the NFL to of done that sort of thing; he isn't the cheating type.

But my reasoning for that is the following....32 Year old linebackers in IDEAL PHYSICAL CONDITIONING with a supposibly clean bill of health do not just suffer strokes. The risk factors of strokes are things like Drugs/Alcohol/Tobacco/Overweight or Inactivity/Previous Heart Conditions/ and previous family history. Supposibly he has had none of that. While it is true that strokes can happen to anybody of any age at anytime, the odds of that happening are about the same as winning the lottery if you do not have any of the risk factors of a stroke.However,There is evidence that anabolic steroids are linked to strokes, especially oral types of the drug.My Guess? After the superbowl, he stopped taking the steroids for a while and figured he would pick them back up as the season was starting to come around and his body went into a bit of a shock and caused the stroke.
I dunno if Bruschi can even help that defense..But in the sputtering AFC East anyone can win that division. He'll definately provide more leadership out on the field.
High blood pressure is hereditary and is one of the biggest factors leading to a strokeThis guy did NOT take 'roids, I take the possibility of it just running in his family over substance abuse
