Getty Images So how did Jets quarterback Greg McElroy go from having an abdominal issue on Wednesday to a concussion on Thursday?   Apparently, the guy who scored in the 40s on the Wonderlic wasn’t smart enough to tell the team he was suffering from concussion symptoms. Jane McManus of ESPNNewYork. com reports that McElroy had concealed his symptoms “for days,” telling teammates about the situation but only finally going to the team on Thursday morning. “He came to my room [Christmas night] and we talked about it,” receiver Clyde Gates told ESPNNewYork.com. “He was hurting real bad. I was like, ‘Bro, I know, I’ve been down that road already.   I’m just saying you can’t try to tough it out cause you going to end up hurting yourself.   You’ve got to let everybody know how you really feel. ’” Guard Matt Slauson also knew about the situation.

NEW YORK A New York City Council member did his part to jump in following superstorm Sandy by dealing with a crashed computer system at a Queens gas station, CBS New York reported. John Rigone, the owner of the 15th and 49th Street Auto Care Center, told 1010 WINS that his station was without power for a week after the storm. When electricity was restored, he understood the system had actually crashed. Rigone called the workplace of City Council Member Dan Halloran (R-19th), who went to the gas station to help take care of the trouble. "He was actually programming the computers," Rigone stated. "He was online getting diagrams on how to reboot certain systems. This is all gas station equipment, which nobody really knows about, but he took the time out to really get in it to get the place up and running.".
