Hasselbeck’s daughter hit by dirt bike, recovering

  • Print

SEATTLE (AP)—The daughter of Seahawks quarterback Matt Hasselbeck(notes) is recovering after surgery to repair injuries sustained on a family trip to Central Washington over the bye weekend.

Hasselbeck posted on his Twitter site Tuesday he had the “worst bye week ever. 6 year old daughter got hit by a dirt bike.”

The 34-year-old father of three said he spent his weekend at the hospital.

He thanked the dentist who repaired Mallory’s mouth and the staff at Central Washington Hospital in Wenatchee. He also thanked the staff who treated Mallory at Seattle Children’s Hospital upon the family’s return home.

He said she will miss her basketball season but will recover.

    politics aside, it doesn't matter who's kid, or why. it just matters that she got hurt and there is a family devastated.. this is sports news..football, dirt bikes, what part of those don't say sports? c'mon people, if you do not care, that's fine, but why take the time to post unrelated comments to it.. by the way, how fast do dirt bikes go? dude could've been drunk and ran off the path, faster than anyone could react, i doubt hde put his daughter in harms way on purpose, most families go camping. they did nothing wrong and their daughter got hurt, have some empathy/class!

    Kimmi-"I feel bad but could care less"- Okay did you make a stupid comment that was completely useless? OR do you not really know the phrase...which by the way is, " I couldN'T care less". If you meant the cliche, well then it really doesn't make sense, because to feel bad would mean you DO care.

    #123... I agree... but understand that you are still feeding the division. If both sides were to acknowledge and appreciate the opposite POV, we'd be a healthier country in many aspects.

    Now, how does an article about an injured child turn into Democrats vs. Republicans and liberals vs. conservatives?? You dumb azzes have certainly lost your moral compass. I would not be surprised by the things you all do under the cover of darkness. You are all waste of space and unworthy recipients of oxygen!!!

    All of you left-wing haters are showing what true hypocrites liberals are. You want free healthcare for criminals who enter our country illegally, but you take joy in someone's daughter being injured because of their political ideology. YOu are a bunch of pathetic, angry, hateful losers. And you are too stupid to realize how it is ruining our country.

    Don T. #110,it said nothing about her riding a dirt bike.It DID say she was hit by one however.If you can't read and comprehend an article any better than that maybe you should go back to fifth grade and start over,dummy.

    Most of you could not even spell Obama 2 years ago. All he has done is lie to the public.


    I hope matts daughter has a speedy recovery. It is had on any family, when a child is injured.

    "While I hope Hasselbeck's daughter is ok, I have to ask, is this really sports news? I'm pretty sure kids into accidents everyday. BTW, it must be nice to have great health insurance. Change the scenario to six year old daughter of an immigrant with no health insurance and I wonder what kind of level of care that girl receives. Just stating the obvious... "

    ooh your bleeding heart.... sound the violins...

    wahhhhh.... if you dont like it, get off your ass and do something instead of pouring your bleeding heart all over a Y! sports message board

    First to Shar, comment #107, a bye week is a week off for NFL teams during the season.
    Second, how did all the political talk come about re: this article? If it's because of Elisabeth Hasselbeck, then you are mistaken. Elisabeth is married to Tim Hasselbeck, not Matt. Tim and Matt are brothers. Matt lives in Seattle area, Tim and Elisabeth live/work in NY area. I think if you want to talk politics, find a different message board. Then make yourself sound intelligent. And get names right. Good luck.
