Hamlin had just tackled receiver Tee Higgins.  He hopped back to his feet, then fell straight backwards.  CPR was administered for several minutes, before Hamlin was taken by ambulance to the University of Cincinnati Medical Center. As of now Hamlin who is 24 years old reportedly had a cardiac event and  is in critical condition.

The Daily Mail says Jeremy Renner is in critical, but stable condition following a snow plowing accident.  Jeremy was airlifted to a hospital on Sunday after First Responders were called to his mansion in the Sierra Nevada mountains. He was reportedly injured while using one of his industrial snow plows. Hollywoodlife.com says the snow plow ran over one of Jeremy’s legs. TMZ says one of Jeremy’s neighbors, who’s a doctor, placed a tourniquet on his leg in order to stop the massive bleeding. That’s when Medics arrived and airlifted Jeremy to the hospital. CNN says Jeremy has undergone two extensive surgeries to save his leg.  He has returned from surgery and remains in the intensive care unit in critical but stable condition.”

Jelly doesn’t have a big tour until about the middle of the year so,  he says he has a friend that owns a gym and we’re gonna start getting after it at the top of the year.

This was the first time in years that Tom was so sure he had a slam-dunk win he was fine-tuning his acceptance speech.”
