    No need for sarcasm BC, I'm actually pretty interested to know what's going on.

    He has no pain tolerance so it could be something really little for all we know.

    I'm interested too, but of course Mixum's going for worst case scenarios right off the bat. I just wanted to respond in kind.

    Fucking shit! It just wouldn't seem right without another injury before the season ended.

    Re: Roy thread... Latest news...

    Seeing the injury in slow motion I think, worst case scenario, it could be a meniscus injury.

    To me it sounds a like problem with his fibular collateral ligament.

    Re: Roy thread... Latest news...

    It's so hard to know ... I've had three surgeries (torn ACL, torn meniscus and torn MCL with broken epiphysi)s on the same knee and the severity of the accident/incident has almost never correlated with the severity of the injury.

    The sideways bump on the knee like that can be a tough one. Hope he is well.

    I hope he's fine, definitely scary that he thought it was unstable or locking.
