Lenny Dykstra initiates a Twitter war in light of Damar Hamlin's mid-game collapse

Lenny Dykstra has indirectly blamed vaccines for the recent collapse of Damar Hamlin in the Buffalo Bills' game against the Cincinnati Bengals.

Dykstra is a 59-year-old former baseball player, who used to play for the New York Mets and the Philadelphia Phillies. He retired in 1986 and was known for his bad-boy image in the MLB.

Dykstra was among the many who commented on the recent horrific incident that occurred during the game.

"Ohhhhhhh, in that case, given that it was a pretty ordinary hit (and he was the one making, not receiving, the hit), the NFL is inherently way too dangerous and must be ended," Lenny Dykstra replied to a tweet that was defending vaccinations.

NFL player Damar Hamlin from the Buffalo Bills collapsed on Monday after making a heavy tackle on Tee Higgins of the Bengal Tigers. He is currently in critical condition and is being treated at the UC Medical Center.

Many anti-vaxxers have used the situation to push the agenda that vaccines are the cause, and Lenny Dykstra is apparently one of them. He replied with his own remarks to one of the tweets claiming that the tackle was not very hard and that the cause of Hamlin's collapse had to be vaccines.

However, many took offense to Lenny's tweet and were not happy with his comments at a time when such a terrible incident had occurred.

But Lenny Dykstra had just as many supporters as he had haters, and many of his fans came to his defense.

The statements made by Lenny Dykstra garnered a lot of attention, and while some took his side in this debate, some opposed him too. But one thing that everyone, whether a fan or not, is arduously doing is praying for is the speedy recovery of Damar Hamlin.

Lenny Dykstra tries to start a Twitter feud with sports commentator Keith Olbermann

Keith Olbermann commented in reply to Lenny Dykstra's claim that vaccines were the cause of Damar Hamlin's collapse. Olbermann accused Dykstra of being 'stupid' and related it to how immature he was back in his youth, claiming he hasn't changed since.

"Yes Lenny Dykstra is still as stupid today as he was in 1985," tweeted Keith Olbermann in reply to Dykstra's Damar Hamnil vaccination claim.

Dykstra then commented back that he doesn't care if Olbermann finds him stupid for pointing out something that was obvious.

"Should I be concerned that Keith Olbermann thinks I’m stupid for pointing out the obvious regarding Damar Hill?" Dykstra replied to Olbermann.

The exchange ended with Dykstra's tweet, as Keith Olbermann didn't rise to the bait. Olbermann has still not replied to the tweet, but many have come to his support, just as many have come to Lenny's support as well.
