Re: RGIII= leadership
A grade I sprain means the ligament was stretched and maybe some slight tearing in the ligament fibers. To this point he's only had some minor swelling. Let's let the team doctors decide if he can play or not.

Re: RGIII= leadership
Well we all know it's bullshit if that's the case. As far as the knee sprain goes, I would not be surprised to see him sit a week or two. I think it really is going to depend on how much it hurts, swelling, and the simple ok from Dr. Andrews. I've had sprained and a tore ACL so I feel his pain. Each person and injury is different though. From Mike's perspective, he probably won't tell anybody crap until the day of. (or until he has to by rules)

Re: RGIII= leadership
I don't think it's a question of *can* he play, but rather *should* he play.

He's already saying he expects to play. In the middle of a playoff run he's gotta be out there if he can go. Plenty of other guys are banged up and nursing some sort of injury right now. That's just the way it is this time of year. |

Re: RGIII= leadership
Michael Kaplan, he said RG3's at risk to get re-inured if he goes back too soon

Re: RGIII= leadership
Isn't that true with any injury of any severity?

Re: RGIII= leadership
Well you have an injury like Garcon's where apparently playing doesn't do more damage

Actually he is an orthopedic doctor who specializes in knees and sports medicine. Aka - best qualified person including wizards to talk about the injury. Every injury is different so no that is not true for any of them. He didnt just say it once either - he repeated over and over "at least a few weeks ". It was the last thing i saw before i went to sleep - nightmarish. Hope he is overreacting but .......

Re: RGIII= leadership
Stephania Bell is one of my favorite people there. She was my next door office neighbor for a couple of years

Re: RGIII= leadership
You've never heard of Stephania Bell?! Then you've probably never heard of The Stephania Bell *ding* or The Curse of Stephania Bell (Dun dun dun!!).

Re: RGIII= leadership
This draft class was a qb goldmine (or so it would appear).
Does this count as Leadership? Sam Farmer @LATimesfarmer Pete Carroll gave his players Monday off. So, of course, Russell Wilson had all the rookies in by 9 a.m. His success is no accident. Retweeted by Albert Breer To plagiarize a popular commercial, It's only leadership if it works. |
