Fan in San Diego Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 Relax people, Bruce Smith used to do this all the time. Saving the gas for when it counts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBD Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 Sounds as though he only did not participate in the team portion of practice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drinkTHEkoolaid Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 (edited) If I remember correctly... in marios defense last year he never brought up his injury until the media started asking him about his wrist or if he was hurt. Only after the media talked about it he brought it up. But ugh don't complain about illegal hands to the face....

shoretalk Posted July 29, 2013 Author Share Posted July 29, 2013 I saw him out there today. He was at least out there. Don't remember what drills if any he was in on but he was there and dressed for practice. Ok ... my post was primarily regarding his not showing his face at practice, which is how the Bills blog made it sound. When I stated that he needed to show leadership it was to have a presence on the field ... of course if he hurt his little toes in that small bed on Saturday night we need to take care to insure he can go full force come September (Yes, I am one of those overly optimistic types who really believe that in our new defense Mario can become SUPER MARIO.). So, my post has generated some interesting thoughts as training camp begins but knowing that he did not hide in the dorms is what I was looking for from him. We will keep our eyes to the ground to see if those toes heal quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
26TrapDraw Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 Ok, it always amazes me how professional athletes seem to get these issues by walking through college dorms. The report is out ... Mario Williams held out of practice because the poor multi-millionaire has a sore foot. WHERE IN THE WORLD did he pick that up? Were they playing kick the can in the dorms? So big Mario your toes are hurting you ... don't you think that you have an obligation to at least show your face on DAY ONE of training camp? Aren't there some drills that you can participate with your foot in an ice bucket? What about being supportive of your teammates? This is not a good omen ... his poor little footsy. My goodness ... how many of us go to work with some minor issues and then take care not to aggravate what ails us ... not Mario. http://blogs.buffalo...-has-sore-foot/ wow....your entitled to your opinion but overreact much?

mrags Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 We are all calling it a toe injury, but the report says foot... So that encompasses more than toes as well. I don't see why it matters he didn't practice. Now if he was put on the PUP list.... That would be a little scary this. But I'll also add that he was out there today. Even though he didn't practice in drills, I saw him out there walking around with the defensive linemen and coaches. Just to get a feel for what they were doing. At least he won't be completely out of it when he starts practicing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. WEO Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 Relax people, Bruce Smith used to do this all the time. Saving the gas for when it counts. If there was any indication he would play like Bruce Smith "when it counts", threads like this wouldn't exist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmy10 Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 Since his toes hurt at TRAINING CAMP, I am ignoring these posts until they get properly merged into the training camp thread. I saw him out there as well and he didn't appear to be doing any less work than the others. So they were ALL walking around like they had hurt feet? I am so f&$*ing done with this team.

DJasper Probincrux III Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 This. Just make sure Mario gets the memo that real bullets start flying in September, not October. He was a bit tardy with the whole giving a damn thing last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
