I guess what I'm saying what's the worry now? Odd timing for this story to come out.

Trying to get some pub for his new book perhaps?

Any Given Monday: James R Andrews, Don Yaeger: Amazon.com: Kindle Store
yup . . . i was just going to say this . . . his book is being released this weekend as well (according to the talk radio guy in phx anyway) . . . this just gets his name in the press a little more and increases his book sales . . .

Or....maybe nobody has asked the man any questions in relation to the Baltimore game? Is there any journalist on record asking Dr. Andrews any questions about the Baltimore game or RGIII prior to this weekend? Anybody got anything? Why are we saying he's trying to drum up press? Can anybody point to me where he's had media opportunities to set the record straight and passed?

I'm quite frankly disturbed we have a coach throwing a well renowned doctor under the bus when it was actually a lie the whole time.

sorry, but i agree with Matty . . . if he really felt that strongly about this worrying that his reputation would be hurt, he would have came out long ago on his own . . .

It doesnt take a journalist asking Dr Andrews anything for it to become public. Had Dr Andrews made that statement at any other time, it would have been very public. And in the day and age of Twitter and Facebook, journalists are not needed. Dr Andrews makes too much money on what he does to have someone question whether he knows an athletes knees.

Im more disturbed that a Dr knowing an athlete was injured, let him double around and go back into the game without checking him out. The Dr needs to make sure that gets looked at. If a player turns around, then the Dr needs to get a team staff member to make sure the coach knows he never looked at the player and to round up that player to be looked at. RG3 didnt play the next game, so its not like anyone can scream that he doesnt care about player safety.

No arguments there. Agree totally.
