Try to make an explosive move with all that body weight on arguably your weakest joint on 3/16th inch of carpet and hard packed DG or concrete . Those guys are on borrowed time. I know cause I did it myself left knee.

He wanted perspective, so he went to the hospital to see a 10 year old with cancer. That’s sad, and heartening at the same time. I love so many of these young (and older) guys! 

 

He also caught him self with “I haven’t got....I haven’t earned as many plays as I’d want.” Nice process thinking type guy there!

At least it’s not the end of the career the way it used to be. He got hurt early in the season so the bright side is he should be ready to go by camp. My son was back on a basketball court 5 months after ACL surgery. Shaky?  Sure, but out there learning to trust it again. 

 

Amazing how far they have come. Wasn’t it an ACL that basically ended CB Robert James’ career far too soon?

Its more like what doesn’t give, namely artificial turf

 

Might be although turf is better now then is used to be.  

 

Surgical repair wasn’t as absolute as it is now.

 

A bunch of the old timers didn’t have ACLs.

 

Speed and voilence of the game keeps trending upward. 

 

Lot of components to this one

He had a number of other issues, as I recall. I never thought he was all that, and I think he was pretty dependent upon having Randy Moss making him look good. I could be off there, as always!  

 

 

But there are never any guarantees! He was always a bit chubby, no? If you don’t work your %&# off in rehab you won’t get the optimal results.

Fair point Randy Moss had the catch radius the size of a hot air balloon.

 

Fact on rehab- I slacked on my rehab using “had to work” as an excuse and it took 5 years before my strong leg was my strong leg again.

If it's just the ACL, he'll be fine next season. Especially with access to top-level surgeons, rehab, and training. It's only when there's collateral damage, particularly to cartilage, that things get dicey. Ligament repairs are very straightforward now, but meniscus and articular cartilage are still difficult to restore to original condition. 

 

I've torn both of my ACLs, but was fortunate that I did very little damage to the cartilage each time. I was back to regularly programmed ski bumming in 6 months, without the benefit of professional trainers and primo drugs. It's a tough recovery process, but eventually you get back to normal.
