Re: Manning out 4 to 6 weeks
I'm just sick of the injuries.
I'll tell you a story - I know exactly how Booger received his season-ending injury in 2007, and I completely blame the team for it. I'm not sure what the technical name of the drill is, but it involves the DL swimming around three blocking pads and finishing by diving onto the equivalent of a third-grade gym mat. About elementary level padding, on top of the ground. Thing is - they dive off the spin move at a very awkward angle, and more than a few times, the DLman misses the mat completely and completes his dive smack into the ground.
I didn't actually see Booger get hurt, but I know it was the same drill. Dove, hit the ground funny and that was that. If I see that drill set up again this summer, I'm going to march on the field - risking arrest - and dismantle the damn equipment myself.
