Just hours after the game I received phone calls and emails from the administrator from the Indiana Fire. They had saw that we used periscope to show the game and they wanted to have access to the video to send to the league as they were very much trying to peruse the fact that our player did something wrong causing the injury. However, the video was taken from a phone from the press box. I learned that with periscope the video is only available for 24 hours and you cannot fast forward, rewind or zoom in on the video. Before returning the women's voicemail I called Terry to brief him on the situation and let him know what was going on. We both spoke about the incident. It was very hard to say how the player was hurt but it looked from my view that it was from the tackle and there is no sign of any punching or kicking. Not to mention the linesman was right there. I contacted the women back to let her know that periscope was the only video we had and that we were new to it all. The video would be up for 24 hours and thats it. I asked how the player was doing and she did not give much detail other than him being concussed. It was a very unfortunate incident that you wish would never have happened.
