  6. He’s always been a substance abuser… and leads a very destructive lifestyle. Look at him. He’s 29 years old… going on 50. He’s a mess.

  8. just when I think the commentors on these sights can’t sink any lower I read things like this….you asses that are saying cutesy, negative things about something that could be this serious will someday know that karma is a bitch.

    WTF are you talking about? He got drunk in Vegas last year. That’s the only supporting evidence you have. What else would you say makes him a mess? The fact that he’s one of the most charitable individuals in the league? Quit parroting what you’ve heard. Idiot.

  15. Shockey may be a bit brittle and overrated, but he leaves it all on the field and pumps up his teammates and the crowd with his energetic persona. I’m sure most coaches would love to have a player like him on their roster. Hope he’s okay.

    screw you buddy, you don’t know ANYTHING about his medical records. SYFPH if you don’t have facts

  17. New TD dance? Are you sure it’s not his 3 yard catch second and seven to go at the 40 dance?

  18. Wow this is scary news. My best goes out to Shockey and his family, I hope this sounds worse than it is and he’s back on his feet soon.

  19. How far is the weight room from the showers?
    Could have been accidental exposure to shampoo!

  20. I hope he is ok because I want to thank him for getting hunt and not being on the feild when the Giants had that great end of season that finished in AZ with the VL Trophy
    Would not have won all those games with that punk in the line up
    He is a loud mouth coke head

  21. Shockey better make sure he takes care of himself. You can’t shrug off something like a seizure, it’s a sure sign that something is not right.
    I wish him well.

    Actually I do know quite a bit about his personal habits. I know people he’s party’d with… I know owners of restaurants he’s frequented. He’s very well known. His drugs of choice are smoke and coke. Heavy drinker too. You fanboys are like children.

  24. wow really lowlives? Even if you don’t like a player is it really in your character to jump on him when he has a serious non-football related medical emergency? I guess none of you losers have ever had anyone in your family or friends who have suffered medical emergencies, if you do, then surely you wouldn’t mind someone saying they’re a coke head or a substance abuser or that perhaps that it’s something that others can make fun of.

  25. thanks for repostin my entry.
    now it’s doubley funny
    shake it off

  26. Bruhaha33… who are you kidding? Are you seriously going to tell us that Shockey doesn’t live a boozing lifestyle?

    Saints fan here, and you WIN!

  29. Here we go again….
    now Shockey can’t stay healthy during the off season….
    I don’t know what happened to this guy, he used to be crazy intense now he is a powder puff…….

  30. Queue the Viking fans that Shockey playing with neurology issues in the NFC championship game that they lost is cheating…
    aaaaaaannnnddd GO…

  32. Delirium Tremens are seizure-like, if this guy has an alcohol problem doing something physicaly demanding can bring them on…This guy needs help…but it up to him to get it,if in fact he has a problem.

    May I be permitted to choose my prize?
    Thank you.
    I’d like my goddamn putting stroke returned to me, please. No questions asked.
    Again, thank you.

  34. How come these days everyone has a symptom that is like another symptom? Jordon has flu-like symptoms, Shockey with seizure like symptoms. So what happened, he was shaking, but not all the way? He was almost shaking? Or was he doing something LIKE shaking? Maybe gyrating. Or quaking. But I think both of those could be considered seizures as well. So, he had a seizure, right?
