Blow back is Blow back. Comes with the territory, peeps.

I was in no way minimizing the seriousness of a concussion. I was questioning whether Anthony Davis really had one, considering the play I saw & other hits I’ve seen him absorb. But, bottom line, it was wrong for me to do.… Jones, the No. 6 pick in this year’s WNBA Draft out of Stanford, along with Tatum and Allen bought into the Los Angeles Mad Drops, which currently counts former NFL quarterback Drew Brees among its investors.
