ny33 Posted November 4, 2012 Posted November 4, 2012 http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/8592362/mario-williams-buffalo-bills-de-had-torn-wrist-ligament-source I don't see this anywhere, so here it is. I'm not going to pass judgement on him until the end of the season, but let's hope he and the team step up today and destroy Houston.
NoSaint Posted November 4, 2012 Posted November 4, 2012 We will see - like I've said, there's been a lot of smoke - but he has a long and very positive track record. I've tried to stay optimistic despite frustration. Playing one armed would hurt a power guy way more than a speed guy too.
The Poojer Posted November 4, 2012 Posted November 4, 2012 actually he should....he didn't tell anyone about an injury that serious??? if it was only a 1 week recovery, he could have done this early on and been healthier now and not try and get healthy against arguably the toughest stretch of our schedule....
papazoid Posted November 4, 2012 Posted November 4, 2012 i have every confidence, that once healthy, Mario will be a very productive player....
NoSaint Posted November 4, 2012 Posted November 4, 2012 (edited) actually he should....he didn't tell anyone about an injury that serious??? if it was only a 1 week recovery, he could have done this early on and been healthier now and not try and get healthy against arguably the toughest stretch of our schedule.... The report essentially said to me that he didn't tell fans (look how we reacted to any mention he was hurt) not that he hid it from everyone. Also that he would've (and maybe should) be missing more time than this. Piecing the puzzle together, they must've thought minor year that would heal soon, it was more major- this surgery may not have fixed it even, as much as put a better bandaid on the problem (reduce swelling and such to help) Edited November 4, 2012 by NoSaint
NoSaint Posted November 4, 2012 Posted November 4, 2012 And it healed already to play? From the sounds of that report - no but he's taping it up and playing anyway

tennesseeboy Posted November 4, 2012 Posted November 4, 2012 Let's see...maybe the trainer who let him play? The coach who didn't know what to do if a player was injured? That's assuming he actually had or has a torn ligament. Funny how losers always find injuries to blame for poor performance.
NoSaint Posted November 4, 2012 Posted November 4, 2012 When did he injure his wrist? Final preseason game, according to initial interviews.
l< j Posted November 4, 2012 Posted November 4, 2012 When did he injure his wrist? Moving his fridge.
nobody Posted November 4, 2012 Posted November 4, 2012 http://espn.go.com/n...ligament-source Who feels like a douche bag now? If he didn't inform the Bills medical staff - then he should.
K-9 Posted November 4, 2012 Posted November 4, 2012 Moving his fridge. You see, now that's some funny schit right there. GO BILLS!!!
muffmonster Posted November 4, 2012 Posted November 4, 2012 Moving his fridge. Hahaha, fridge jokes don't get old. Well played, i had to explain the "fridge" to my wife so she stopped looking at me weird.
ChasBB Posted November 4, 2012 Posted November 4, 2012 I guess I'm still unclear how a wrist injury causes one to go half-speed on his feet, but oh well.
bmur66 Posted November 4, 2012 Posted November 4, 2012 I had ligament damage in my forearm. It took a year and a half to completely heal on its own. Had little strength because it hurt.
Concrete Buffalo Feet Posted November 4, 2012 Posted November 4, 2012 I'm dealing with a torn ligament in my elbow. Also had a fractured bone with the same injury that's since been healed. The ligament tear has been a nightmare to live and work with. Can only imagine how it would affect a player hand swatting and fighting to get to the QB. I've been told 6 months recovery for the elbow so props to Mario on playing through it and to hoping the surgery turns his season around!!!! Go BILLS!!!!
cale Posted November 4, 2012 Posted November 4, 2012 Just be aware that he has his own publicist. Wouldn't surprise me if all of this is just damage control to justify his lack of production the first half of the season. Just sayin'...
