Tre'Davious White - when will he be ready?
Returntoglory replied to Deadstroke's topic in The Stadium Wall
My point is the MENTAL aspect of the surgery and recovery. Mentally it's the same today as it was in the 80's and before. " Medical advancement aside, it's his head(possibly) that is the issue. -
Tre'Davious White - when will he be ready?
Returntoglory replied to Deadstroke's topic in The Stadium Wall
When I was in the USAF stationed in Germany in the 80's, I played USAFE Soccer and competitive Ice Hockey against European countries. I initially injured my knee during soccer practice. I went to the base hospital and saw an ER Dr. He told me " Just a strain, you'll be fine". I re-injured my knee during a hockey tournament in Sweden a few months later. After a few minutes on the ice, I stood up and put pressure on my knee and skated to the bench. The following Monday I went to Landstuhl Regional Medical Center. I saw a civilian orthopedic surgeon. He scoped my knee and said, and I quote " I don't know who told you that your knee was fine, but your ACL is torn, as is your MCL and LCL! I was devastated of course. 20 years old with visions of a professional baseball career now gone. I was in a full, hinged polio type leg brace for two years. I could only take it off to shower or to sleep. Fast forward to when my brace was finally taken off. I had a Lenox Hill brace that I would wear it for sports. It took me almost a year to gain the confidence to run or skate. I was petrified of the thought of having a relapse with my knee and going through all the pain and rehab all over again. So, if in fact Tre is extremely gun-shy right now, I for one have firsthand understanding and compassion for him and why he is feeling this way. It is a tough mental hurdle to get over. ESPECIALLY in a fast, high contact sport. Take your time Tre, football can wait. -

We have the backs! We just are not committed to the run and today our worse fears may be realized with an injury to Allen! -

Hilarious SNL skit about Jets/Bills game.
Returntoglory replied to Bubba Gump's topic in The Stadium Wall
I took my Father-in-Law to the Bills/jets game back in October of 1988. My wife and I had just got back to the states a few months earlier after spending nearly 5 years in Germany. I dropped $400 on a killer pair of tickets. It had been a while since I attended a Bills game so I wanted amazing seats. We drove to the game at the Meadowlands from Kingston NY. Once we arrived and parked we made our way to the stadium. As we were walking in we past by a dumpster and out of Nowhere , a Jets fan jumps out from behind and yells at my Father-in-Law "Take that F'ing hat off in our house!" . Being a lifetime Giants fan, my F-I-L was representing. Unfortunately, he was repping in the wrong place! So to avoid further incidents, my F-I-L took off his giants cap. After we got in and found our seats (which were amazing! 50 yard line just below the MNF Broadcast booth) we settled in to watch the game. At half-time we were running away with the game. I believe it was 24-7. And that's when the "fun" began! Fights and fires filled the 2nd half in the stands. Numerous jets fans were picking fights with Bills fan, in many cases walking up to a Bills fan and sucker punching them! It finally came around to us and my F-I-L said it was time to go! I told him " Tony. You can go and I'll meet you at the car. But I haven't seen my boys play live since 1978 AND I spent big bucks on this game so I'm waiting until the end! And with that, my F-I-L left for the parking lot and I took my Bills hat off and put the free paper jets cap on they were handing out when you walked through the gate and sat back to watch the rest of the game. By the 4th quarter the fights were right near where I was sitting. The broadcasters from MNF were standing up and watching and you could just see their disgust at what had been unfolding in front of their eyes the entire game. We ended up winning 37-14. I must say. The J-E-T-S reputation as horrible fans is well deserved. https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/sports/1988/10/19/bills-return-to-prime-time-a-big-hit-in-the-big-apple/fe8a6ec8-b58e-482b-9672-87280df79822/ -

Bad series of calls leading up to the fumble. -
Watch the trial. He's 100% guilty. My god...

He's a POS who took the lives of two innocent people in a brutal and heinous manner ! For you to even approach the monster is unforgivable. He deserved to be found guilty and then be put to death "But" the makeup of that jury from the start spelled out how the verdict would play out. "Man's been through a lot, and probably deservedly so". What an ignorant statement.

Lover???? Seriously, get your facts right!
