Thank you. I was looking at NFL.com when it happened and half the falcons fans were happy it happened. Nice to know you're all not a-holes ;)

I hate fans who are like that. They prefer their team to win when the opposing team has few of their good players hurt? Asshole. :mad:

And thanks for the classy post, Mr. White. Good to know there some fans like you that are not the type to wish a player is hurt so his team can win easier.

I'm not exactly going to be Time Magazine 'Man of the Year', but I just hate to see things like that happen. But you know what, Gross has stayed healthy for a long time, something that is quite hard for lineman to pull off. I would imagine he will recover better than most, because most linemen have had that happen to them at least once in their career. Turner and Smith also got dinged up today. I expect so see Smith back next week because he needed no help at all off the field, but Turner being a RB will probably see at least a week or two off.

Not going to get into the game stuff much cuz it probably belongs in another thread, but let's hope Gross didn't sustain an injury that will have any lingering effects. Whenever you see a guy get carted off, you just feel for the guy, and that could be anything from a high ankle sprain (nastier than you might think) to a broken ankle (ironically heals faster than a high ankle sprain sometimes from what I have heard). Granted ankle injuries aren't nice, but when a guy his size dings up a knee, there's a lot worse things that could come from that. Small consolation I'm sure, but hey at least its not an ACL tear or something. Good luck the rest of the way.

    • I've seen several in the last couple of weeks. Had a close call this evening walking the dogs. My Rottie was at my side and my pittie was up ahead and about that time I see a stick laying across the driveway maybe 20 feet ahead. We get a little closer and that's no stick. That's a BIG copperhead laying across the driveway on the bridge. I grab my Rottie and now I have him in my right hand and the pittie is on the other side of the snake. She had to have stepped right over it. Neither dog had noticed the snake at this point and I'm trying to he chill and keep it that way. I switch my Rottie to my left hand and tell my little to sit and stay. Now I'm skipping past this copperhead between it and my Rottie and grab my pittie with my right hand. poo, this isn't gonna work. Now we gotta get past this copperhead again. It's about three feet long laying stretched out across the driveway on a 10' wide bridge. We have maybe four feet to play with so here I am with a 120# Rottie in one hand and an 80# pit bull in the other trying both trying to figure out how we're getting past this copperhead and trying to do it fast before they notice it and do something stupid. Finally decide on sending the Rottie who is my right hand scooting up the driveway ahead of us since I'm between him and the snake. We get up to the snake and I guide him ahead and tell him go,go,go, go and he happily goes trotting up the driveway giving me time to swap the pittie to my right hand so I'm between her and the snake and we scurry past. The copperhead never moved and never offered any sign of either aggression nor fear. It was just chilling.
    • Yep they probably have some good tape on Daniels and Washington by now and the Packers do look legit
    • I'm not. I think the Packers may have become legit contenders with that Parsons trade and I wouldn't be surprised if Daniels and Washington have a bit of a coming back down to Earth after taking the league by surprise last year.
