Scared for your life?

With that line you are heavily insinuating that he would be interested in causing an injury like this to another batsmen.

How f**king immature, insensitive and downright blatantly f**king stupid are you.

f**k off dickhead.

LOL no it doesn't !!!!!
What planet are you on today?

That's like saying 'player X feared for his life when he saw SBW gear up for the shoulder charge on him'
Or 'the English tail ducked for their lives to a Mitch Johnson bouncer barrage'.

The two mentioned aren't looking to kill but they are looking to intimidate ! But your drawing the now, not I

The thing that pisses me off the most about all this is the f**king cameras setup outside the hospital stalking the players who walk in and out of the hospital

I wish they'd show some class and give privacy

some of the articles written show no class either IMO.

I'm all for praising the doctor who worked on him, but giving the article the heading "the doctor who saved Phil Hughes life" when he is still on life support doesn't quite sit right with me. I understand the pretext of the heading considering without the intervention of the doctor there may be no life at all, but I still find it cringe worthy.

I thought the same thing. Bet the doctor is cringing at that shit too. Looks particularly stupid if he doesn't end up making it.

Reminds me countless times of when someone gets cancer or some serious illness, you hear people say about them "Oh, he/she is strong, he/she will pull through". Well, what happens if they don't pull through? Does that mean (according to them) that the person wasn't strong enough?

it's meant as a message of comfort, because you want that person to pull through, and will pretty much say anything positive to assure and reassure yourself and everyone involved that "if anyone can beat [insert sickness/ailment here] this, they can..."
