Took a shot a just where the tendon meets the bone (knee to metal box). Hurts like a mofo. Is there a stability test I can do to see if I do something to strain the tendon it's not going to send my kneecap to my thigh?

Epi?

Wife isn't big into orthopedics.

Bit away from my bailiwick, but testing the temporomandibular joint immediately after luxation isn't diagnostic because of stretch, swelling, pain, and minor damage.

The answer is mostly to get the H off of it, ice it, pop some NSAIDs, and re-eval in 24-48 hours for stability.

24-48 hrs is unacceptable...I've got a game to play tonight.

Will test the beer 1.5hr beforehand medicinal application.

ChoPAT might have to do. I should go ahead and get one so the coach has one in the bag. He's already got my old ASO brace. Getting old sucks.

      Two Athletic articles about QBs

      By XClown1986 · Posted

      The successful teams in the NFL right now have one thing in common: Patience. Not just with their QB, but with every facet of the program. There are going to be successes and failures, but no one panics and makes reactive decisions. Look at the Eagles, the Bills, the Ravens, the Packers, and hell, even the (newly successful) Lions. All of them showed patience with their QB's growth, let their coaches do their jobs, have drafted well, developed their own players, and plugged holes in their roster and organization with players and situations that made sense. That's what we need. And if that isn't what we have now, we need to make moves to get it there. If that means they need to blow it up to start over, then blow it up and start it over the right way. If that means to change their approach from top to bottom, change it now. But the blueprint of success is out there in the league, teams just think they know better, or they don't have the discipline to follow through.

      X was drafted too early, needs refinement and is playing out of position. We knew this. What's the issue? Personally, I think he will be fine. Just needs more time.

      Rozeboom is a JAG. Shaq was most definitely not a JAG.
