Many of players have played without their ACL. What in the ***** are you talking about 2 Quote

Turk71 Posted November 14, 2021 Posted November 14, 2021 Pick up OBJ a day before losing Woods for the season, what psychic timing. Quote

Yes the PCL is a minor ligment that can be braced up......but it is not advisable The ACL? My kid had this football injury I feel like I know too much when it comes to a ACL injury Quote

Can you imagine, you tear your ACL and don't notice? Kind of makes you wonder if he was using Toradol to practice When I tore my ACL it hurt a lot when it happened, but the pain went away in a few minutes. I then could walk fine. The problem was that my knee would give out from time-to-time until I found out I tore it. Quote

I have a buddy who's a Rams fan, and he called me up all, 'I can't believe we got Sammy!' and I was like, no, you got Woods. I loved that pick, but oh well, not destined to be ours. Quote
JMF2006 Posted November 14, 2021 Posted November 14, 2021 (edited) That's a shame Bob seems like a good guy and teammate. I think he wanted out of Buffalo and going back to Cali was a no brainer. All best Bob on your recovery and rehab Edited November 14, 2021 by JMF2006 Quote
Call_Of_Ktulu Posted November 14, 2021 Posted November 14, 2021 I just picked up OBJ on Wednesday after someone dropped him. I lost Ruggs but gained OBJ. Weeeeeee Quote

Anything less than severed....and therefore not functional.........is considered a grade of sprain, is it not? there is a HUGE difference in a partially torn/frayed ACL and a completely torn ACL. You can't will a non existent ligament to hold that is not connected. I snapped My ACL twice in college, and had to have full reconstructions with cadaver ligaments... but a frayed is not a sprain, it will never regrow or heal... all that matters is the degree of fraying. So saying a couple guys played with frayed ACLs while others couldn't proves their toughness is stupid and idiotic... VERY VERY STUPID Edited November 15, 2021 by Prospector Quote
