Yeah it really ruptured my fragile ego. Plus I'm torn on how the words remind me of negative shit in here
Hey, if I could make you laugh through this, why didn't I earn a "like"? What's a matter, vet snipped your balls?
You'd better come correct. Sly, are you gonna roll to a Ducks game with me this year? This fool is now a season-ticket holder (albeit through a very drunken evening). Solid seats.
I bought a friend's (solid) tickets. He gets to keep one lame game and one middle-grade game. After he tells me his choices (sometime in the next week or so), I'll offer up what remains and see if anything works. The wife sometimes tags along, but usually just to hang with various friends' tailgates through the game.
Fuck man it's real now...At first it didn't seem real but damn. I got faith though, not counting them out by any means. This is the shit that NBA history is made of, lets go get it.
Give this a read, I found it interesting. http://lermagazine.com/article/return-to-football-after-achilles-tendon-rupture
This is the first failure of the Stackpole regime, IMO. Wes has been complaining about his Achilles' for a while. I know it would have been tough to talk him into sitting to rest it, but sometimes that's what coaches and trainers have to do.
I never heard about his Achilles' until last night when Wes said it postgame. You can't make these guys sit unless they just aren't performing. And with Wes, it's doubly hard. I don't think it's a failure on Stackpoles' staff. This just... happened.
I hadn't heard about it either. However, Wes said it had been bothering him and they had been treating it. Yet no one told him to sit. Yeah, it's hard, but that's what coaches sometimes have to do. You think the Spurs are always cool with sitting out games?
Honest question though, if you look at the NBA what percentage of players aren't experiencing problems with a part of their body on some level. I'd be willing to bet its less <15%, and the majority are probably players who never play. Add in 20+ mpg and i bet its <5%
They're old, I'm sure they are. I trust that if they thought -this- was going to happen, they would have at least broached the idea. Hell, for all we know, they did, and Wessy said no. No one knows those conversations except for them, the rest is speculation.
Should Wes have LARS (ligament augmentation and reconstruction system) surgery? My knowledge of it is with ACL's, I don't know how successful it is with achilles ruptures. With ACL injuries LARS drastically reduces recovery time from around 12 months with a traditional reconstruction, to under 100 days with LARS.
