We wondered about where Glazer was on Tuesday, and the answer was something we didn't expect at all - he's in the hospital battling double pneumonia after a back procedure went wrong. The details from TMZ are, well, horrifying.
Glazer was having a back procedure to treat a broken disc Tuesday morning ... but shortly after doctors put him under he got sick and started choking on his own vomit -- the fluid ended up filling BOTH lungs.

Glazer was rushed to an L.A. area hospital where his breathing was so shallow his blood oxygen level dropped into the 70s (90-100 is normal) -- which over any prolonged period can easily turn into a life or death situation.

This is just depressing. Glazer is one of the best reporters out there, and it's truly a shame to see him in such dire straits because of what he thought was a minor procedure.

Was actually hanging in his mothers home in VT this weekend. She didn't seem overly worried I think the article is over done

Goes to show why there's no such thing as "minor" surgery.

Someone forget to tell him to come on an empty stomach?

For those asking i had a minor back deal today that unfortunately took a pretty scary turn for the worse while under. Now been hospitalized
Will be off the grid while I try to get better but I expect to crush this and be up and around hopefully this week
Crazy morning, lungs aspirated during routine procedure, now in hospital w double pneumonia>>"@jasonrmcintyre: NFL Free Agency no fun for @JayGlazer: routine back procedure turned into a trip to the ER. Anesthesia led to vomiting, choking and pneumonia"

I am incredibly humbled everyone by all your kind tweets, prayers and thoughts. Truly honored and can't thank you all enough. I feel blessed
Didn't have the best night and AM, struggled breathing throughout evening. But my plan is to get out in time to do ufc for fox this weekend

You guys have never meant so much to me and in and out of treatments I have been reading each tweet thankful to GOD for a life like this
