The Conspiracy Thread

[Razeyfingers]

I dont know if this is productive for this forum but here goes my first one:

What are the odds that Smitty didnt really break his arm? Instead he was told to chill out for a bit.

And while we are on the subject of odds. What are the odds that I will be able to buy Steve Smith underoos in the near future?. . . I would wear them with just a cape. . . . everywhere.

maybe goggles too.

you mean like the same reason jake didnt really break his finger at the end of last year

and the chance that on pike or cantwell might suffer a mysterious injury so they can make the team?

not

Zero.Zero:

1. Smitty does not play games like that

2. Smitty's agent would not allow him to take the PR hit just to lay about as it could impact future contracts.

3. Richardson/Fox would not do this. I could see them hiding a potential player on IR for the year or nursing a hammy for preasonson but not faking a broken bone that required surgery.

Sadly, I think its #2 that makes the conspiracy most unlikely to me.

I don't know much about odds, but I'm going to go with "no chance in hell." And I'm a man that likes a good conspiracy theory.

the reach that wi fi gets even in mental institutions are encouraging.

He sure is back awful early...

...did they operate or did they let it heal naturally?

[SorthNarolina]

you do know they put another plate in right?

I never thought about how shady it is to IR stash people. We do it at least once a year. Pike probably goes out for the year with a papercut.

No, I've had my own broken bone problems the past few months.

Was the break that bad? All I remember was a bunch of "OMG WE'RE SCREWED" reactions.

From what I have been told you can't just put a guy on IR. First of all the medical report has to be sent to the league office and it has to be documented. Sure there is some flexibility so that a guy who breaks his leg can be placed on IR 3 weeks into the season even though he could be back by week 11 for example. If you have a guy who can't contribute due to an injury and you need to replace him, you can put him on IR for example. Still you can't just put a completely healthy guy on IR for no reason. If you get caught doing that I believe you suffer fines and punishment by the league office.

Daddy?

Nah I didnt think there was any truth in the OP but I just wanted to start a thread to see what else might float to the top.

I wonder why the Panthers didn't pursue Donovan McNabb, there has to be something there.
