Steve O Posted March 31, 2012 Posted March 31, 2012 BTW, I find it interesting/convenient that Peters had a chance to face the Bills for the first time since leaving them, in Buffalo no less, and managed to get hurt the game before, and miss it. Coincidence? no such thing as coincidence
atlbillsfan1975 Posted March 31, 2012 Posted March 31, 2012 http://cdn.bleacherreport.net/images_root/slides/photos/000/821/882/104274513_display_image.jpg?1301483631 Tub of goo I do not get that from the pic. The guy is a man mountain. He is faster then probably 90% of the people his age and ways 100lb more then them. He is a freak of nature when you think about it. Its like your suburban going as faster as your newly divorced neighbors corvette.
WhiteCat Posted March 31, 2012 Posted March 31, 2012 An achilles can tear anytime you put an excessive strain on the tendon. It's usually an "explosive" type injury, with basketball and racquet sports being the most common activities w/ ruptures. I tore mine two years ago playing tennis, and it's a nasty injury. Long, painful rehab with decreased flexibility and strength afterwards. And psychologically, it's hard- tough to resume regular activities. Believe me, you don't want it to happen again.
You herd it hear last Posted April 1, 2012 Posted April 1, 2012 Great news, couldn't have happened to a nicer guy. LOL I'd be looking over my shoulder cuz the instant karma is gonna get you...
Doc Posted May 14, 2012 Posted May 14, 2012 Peters ruptured his achilles again. Peters was reportedly using a device called a Roll-A-Bout to maneuver around his house. The device reportedly malfunction, Peters fell on his face, and ruptured the Achilles again. He's going to sue the manufacturer. He will require a second surgery. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/09000d5d82917fca/article/report-eagles-tackle-jason-peters-ruptures-his-achilles-again?module=HP11_headline_stack How much do you think he'll sue for?

Doc Posted May 14, 2012 Posted May 14, 2012 He shouldn't be allowed to sue, for using that jokey-looking thing to haul around his $60M ass.
Rubes Posted May 15, 2012 Posted May 15, 2012 Peters ruptured his achilles again. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/09000d5d82917fca/article/report-eagles-tackle-jason-peters-ruptures-his-achilles-again?module=HP11_headline_stack How much do you think he'll sue for? Wow, this is for real? Holy crap, talk about bad luck. That's gonna take a long, long time to heal and rehab.
Doc Posted May 15, 2012 Posted May 15, 2012 Wow, this is for real? Holy crap, talk about bad luck. That's gonna take a long, long time to heal and rehab. Yep. And he's on the wrong side of 30 now. BTW, I heard that since he initially ruptured his achilles working out on his own and not at the team's facilities, the Eagles aren't required to pay him his salary for the season.
Lurker Posted May 15, 2012 Posted May 15, 2012 He shouldn't be allowed to sue, for using that jokey-looking thing to haul around his $60M ass. How the hell does a guy that big use one of these things???
DrDawkinstein Posted May 15, 2012 Posted May 15, 2012 hahahaha Dont like to see anyone injured, but the thought of him falling over on that Roll-a-bout is great.
PromoTheRobot Posted May 15, 2012 Posted May 15, 2012 What a bad break. He was planning on holding out for more money again too. PTR
San Jose Bills Fan Posted May 15, 2012 Posted May 15, 2012 I wonder if this means his house in Orchard Park is gonna get hit by lightning again.
Dirtbag Posted May 15, 2012 Posted May 15, 2012 (edited) He shouldn't be allowed to sue, for using that jokey-looking thing to haul around his $60M ass. totally agree. his horse probably just got skittish and bucked him out of it. Edited May 15, 2012 by Dirtbag
The Senator Posted May 15, 2012 Posted May 15, 2012 Well, he'll likely STILL be voted into the ProBowl - but it'll be a sad day if FatBoy is ever awarded damages for being a stupid klutz and falling off his Roll-A-Bout.
Jim in Anchorage Posted May 15, 2012 Posted May 15, 2012 Well, he'll likely STILL be voted into the ProBowl - but it'll be a sad day if FatBoy is ever awarded damages for being a stupid klutz and falling off his Roll-A-Bout. Can you imagine anything more embarrassing then a grown man in court all teary eyed looking for sympathy because he fell off something called a roll-a-bout? What about your big wheel, Mr Peters?
Nuncha Posted May 15, 2012 Posted May 15, 2012 (edited) He exceeds the height limitation of the Roll-A-Bout device by 1/2". He isn't gonna win squat in court. LOL! Edited May 15, 2012 by Azucho98
