Gugny Posted October 2, 2017 Posted October 2, 2017 http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/20887809/oakland-raiders-quarterback-derek-carr-leaves-game-lower-back-injury Some comments he made really took me aback. "I think he just got roughed up there," Del Rio said. "He got tackled, and something caused his back to spasm up. I didn't see much that would indicate that he would be injured, but his back spasmed up, so that's what it was." Told that Del Rio said it was a spasm, Carr said, "I'm glad he knows. That's awesome." "It won't be fun," Carr said of the flight back to Oakland. "But at the end of the day, no one really cares. I'll do my best to get comfortable, but as soon as I see my two baby boys, it will feel a little bit better." I don't know boo about the guy, but he comes off as a dick, to me.

Loving husband and father. Total bag of dicks.
Just Jack Posted October 2, 2017 Posted October 2, 2017 I've had my back spasm/lock up, just walking around. It's not fun.
JinxedBill1 Posted October 2, 2017 Posted October 2, 2017 Um I see nothing wrong here. Glad he knows might just be Carr expressing his uncertainty of the injury. And someone's kids is always a positive thing, especially for these guys who spend so much time away from their families.
Cripple Creek Posted October 2, 2017 Posted October 2, 2017 This just in...Del Rio tells his son to suck it up and play this week.
BringBackFergy Posted October 2, 2017 Posted October 2, 2017 I think we all know why Gugny has a dislike for Carr. It's not the spasms, or the coach or the baby boys. Carr plays ahead of EJ. We all witnessed (if you watched the Raiders game) what EJ Manuel looks like as a starter. He is who we thought he was.

And someone's kids is always a positive thing, especially for these guys who spend so much time away from their families. "Glad he knows," is arrogant sarcasm. I have no issue with what he said about his kids. It's the "no one really cares," comment. I guess I should have bolded the parts I was talking about. I forgot my audience.
teef Posted October 2, 2017 Posted October 2, 2017 I've had my back spasm/lock up, just walking around. It's not fun. i had it happen about a month ago. i couldn't stand up straight for about a day. it still doesn't feel perfect.
Blokestradamus Posted October 2, 2017 Posted October 2, 2017 It's the "no one really cares," comment. You can read that in a few ways. Initially, I read it as though fans wouldn't care what it is. They'll just want him out there winning.

DriveFor1Outta5 Posted October 2, 2017 Posted October 2, 2017 I'd be more worried that my star QB might have an injury plagued career.
Gugny Posted October 2, 2017 Author Posted October 2, 2017 I'd be more worried that my star QB might have an injury plagued career. It's okay. They have EJ.
BringBackFergy Posted October 2, 2017 Posted October 2, 2017 http://www.mercurynews.com/2017/09/05/silver-tact-why-raiders-teammates-know-to-never-ever-swear-around-derek-carr/ After reading this I think Carr should be suspended for 5 games. What a tool.

SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted October 2, 2017 Posted October 2, 2017 It's okay. They have EJ. lets not Jynx things
Doc Posted October 2, 2017 Posted October 2, 2017 Carr is saying Del Rio shouldn't speculate like an idiot, he's a piece of meat and they'll want him back out there ASAP, and seeing his baby boys will soothe the pain. I have no problem with anything he said.
SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted October 2, 2017 Posted October 2, 2017 http://www.mercurynews.com/2017/09/05/silver-tact-why-raiders-teammates-know-to-never-ever-swear-around-derek-carr/ Carr was so intent on tidying up that day, on Oct. 25, 2015, that by the time Jones saw him, the quarterback had two armfuls of wrappers, plastic cups and discarded beer bottles. “He was about to go out on the field and he was looking for a trash can. He couldn’t find one,” Jones recalled. “I said, ‘Derek, why don’t you let me take care of that? I know you have to go play the second half.’ He just looked at me, like, ‘Thank you’ and ran out to the field.” Kind of Anti Raider no?
Webster Guy Posted October 2, 2017 Posted October 2, 2017 dont know the guy but he had the NFL turned upside down last year with that offense then he gets hurt and they crash n burn. now its a rocky start to this season and he might be looking at more weeks off and its probably killing the guy. definitely sounds like a jerk there but it might not be his usual self.
CommonCents Posted October 2, 2017 Posted October 2, 2017 He wears eyeliner. Until I hear a good explanation I don't what to hear anything else he has to say.
Gugny Posted October 2, 2017 Author Posted October 2, 2017 (edited) "At first, you're like, 'Oh my gosh, what the heck?' But you kind of give it a little bit and let as much of the pain wear off as it can and go from there. I tried to come in and let [trainers] work on it. I tried to throw and those kinds of things. It just wasn't ready yet -- not saying it won't be [ready next week]. It just wasn't ready today. I tried to do anything I could to be back out there, but I just couldn't." What is it with these young players having to proclaim that they're not going in until they say they're ready? Pretty selfish, if you ask me. EDIT: And who the hell says, "oh my gosh, what the heck?" Fake ass. Edited October 2, 2017 by Gugny
