It looked to me like the guy was pissed AV dumped a cooler of ice water on him. While I suppose it’s possible the cooler slightly hot his shoulder, seems like stretch he got injured enough to hit the IL on that. 

That said, doesn’t seem to be alot of other options for Haseley to replace unless it’s an Alberto DFA. 

Look at the guys faces in front of Beni after he yelled f***.  They seemed concerned .Highly doubtful Beni got pissed because of a little cold water after a win.  Could be he's just reacting to the coldness but I think he got hit with the jug either in the head , neck, or back or several places. . That thing could weigh 40 lbs and Vaughn was starting to let it fall to empty it when it hit him.

Maybe he is just a little gimpy already and this was just the "Icing" or "backbreaker" that led to time off.

I don’t live close to Chicago…what’s the prognosis of if/when the game will start?

Still looks like a window after 3, but don’t hold me to it.  Just looking at a future radar, (that sometimes isn’t trustworthy)

Throwing a huge amount of ice water or gaterade is stupid.  It's childish.  Why do it? Because we won a game in April?  Somehow it became fashionable, because it's on TV.

Many of you are not old enough to remember, but this practice killed, yes killed old football Coach George Allen. It was cold out, he caught pneumonia, and never recovered.  Yet, the beat goes on.

It's fun and tradition. Freak accidents happen.

That’s a wive’s tale.  Allen died of ventricular defibrillation.  He had a heart condition.

That’s not a freak accident. Same as Edwin Diaz. Being dumb leads to injuries.

Huh? Edwin Diaz jumping up and down an inch and blowing out his knee is the definition of a freak injury lol. They're professional athletes. They don't need to be bubbled wrapped but injuries can still occur at anytime.

No, it’s not fun, it stupid childish behavior. These guys are professionals.

So if they don’t play with and show emotion they’re wrong and if they do display emotion when playing and winning they’re wrong.  That’s a tough line to walk.
