A Theory

[TommyD420]

I don't think Ben Roethlisberger, Antonio Brown, or Peyton Manning are hurt, and nor have been hurt in any significant way.

I think it's all gamesmanship and hype machine from the NFL and ESPN.

Discuss.

 

[Dwight Schrute]

Nah.

The league is completely above the board.

I'd trust their word.

Only when I see severed limbs and body parts laying on the field will I believe ANY injury report. BB is a master at the injury report...

 

[bmooney54]

Ben is a true warrior coming back from being carted off with a fractured shoulder to win that game. That dude is so tough.

You mean you don't believe Osweiler is really injured as the reason Kubiak is starting Manning? Yeah, I don't either.

 

[Big/Sky/Fly]

It doesn't matter...they get paid well for what they do. Deal with it and play.

I've heard several people make that claim about Brown. Who knows?

If he's practicing less than a week later, it wasn't ever a "high ankle sprain", Holtzman.

Then again, Holtzman's on my BS Meter, currently.

I know!
People are out for multiple WEEKS MINIMUM with high ankle sprains...that's a non starter.

I'd definitely buy complete BS around Osweiler and ManninHGH though.

Brady has a high ankle sprain

 

[HSanders]

Brady has a high ankle sprain

Yeah but he's not human, so....

I MEAN, THE MAN HAS NEVER HAD A SIP OF COFFEE IN HIS ENTIRE LIFE. EVER. It's unpossible for him to be human.

 

[TommyD420]

Brady has a high ankle sprain

Yeah, and he was out of a boot w/in 36 hours.

High Ankle Sprain.

 

[Dwight Schrute]

High Ankle Sprain.

Super G did a "Mr. Miyagi" on it using her lady like ways and stuff.

Totally agree. I think in a lot of ways the NFL is emulating the WWE hype machine.

This doesn't make any sense. The guy was literally bawling on the sideline like his career was over after the injury. Go ahead and make some Gronk cracks but he was at least out for a little while after the injury.

G hooked him up with some of that spray they use when a guy goes down in a soccer match.

That stuff cures AIDS and cancer.
