Haha, to be fair I never said that, nor did I say the sky was falling. All I'm saying is people cheering that it's "only" a hamstring...a hamstring injury might be something that needs to be accounted for the rest of one's career

 

I think it's the overall general idea where people might be cheering for something initially, but then in the long run it ends up being worse than the thing they were initially cheering against...like that as a general concept is kinda tickling my brain a bit...like from a Shakespearian/Greek tragedy/film noir perspective

I think people were (myself included) breathing a sigh of relief, rather than cheering.

 

"like from a Shakespearian/Greek tragedy/film noir perspective"? 😁 You may be (no sarcasm here) too smart for me to mess with.

Have they scheduled the amputation yet?

 

I believe they want to try a splenectomy first to see if that works.

OK...but were you slamming your body full force into other large athletic men for hours every week and also having them slam into you and land on you and likely try to wrench you around and aggravate it?  'Cuz I don't think that helps.  

 

And also, there are back injuries and back injuries and none of us know which this was.

Not with the same level athletes, but kind of. I’ve spent two multi-month stints in ICU from car accidents, and spent 15 years doing judo around that and a blue collar job. I also played football until the first car crash. I have pins, plates, and screws in several limbs/joints along with having two vertebrae fused. I recovered well for a long time. However, around 32 the ability to recover from injuries was just too much, and I switched everything up…. I’m a tai chi in the park guy now. The injuries add up over time like dividends, and we all have a point where our ability to recover from repetitive trauma declines. Rasul likely hit that point.

When I was young and dumb I went full Gowron…. Never go full Gowron. 

 

Correct. You have to go full Martok. It's the more sensible choice.
