Researched~ On August 9, 2009 in the Titans' first preseason game, Crumpler weighed approximately 300 pounds, gaining an estimated 30 pounds during the offseason. OK m1021pus, one overweight TE, one injured TE, one TE that can't block.....really going to help the running game. Maybe you should do some research yourself before you spout the diarrhea from your mouth.

In Response to Re: Tom Brady is a Happy Man : No wonder why medical insurance is so much. The nurses don't do any research and misdiagnoss injuries. I feel sorry for those construction workers she was talking about that probably just had a sore back!

In Response to Re: Tom Brady is a Happy Man : m1021us You see this is why no one can stand you. All you do is RUN your mouth about something you know NOTHING about. I am an RN and have been one for 14 years at a local Mass hospital. I have seen everything from slight injuries to everything major. Rob Gronkowski had surgery that shaved off a disc that was sticking into his spinal cord. The fear afterward was that he had spinal stenosis, a narrow spine that if he was hit in the wrong way would most likely cripple him. I personally have seen this injury on usually construction workers and some athletes and what usually follows is severe disc degeneration. Normal healing of this situation with most that I have seen the person has a good 10 years depending on age of normal activity. A young man going into the NFL with just one year of healing time and rehab giving his position and body size and mass, along with the fact that 300 pound men will be tryng to put him down is a horrible situation. Many of us here at this hospital are Patriot fans and yes we have discussed this very same situation for this young man. Now I cannot predict what will happen but common sense dictates this boy will have his career in football ended within 2 years and with serious complications. So please M1021us, just shut up about things you have no knowledge about, and stop insulting people on this board with your petty remarks. I wish that guy Stomper would get to meet yo uand shut you up because you are the biggest degenerate on this board.

In Response to Re: Tom Brady is a Happy Man : Wendy,  You are one damm angry individual. You should go take a class in anger management or something. You may very well be a nurse with good medical knowledge, but I think it's fair to say a professional athlete is going to get access to doctors with knowledge that is far superior to yours.

Only one AFC team scored more points than NE last year.  I'm not that worried about the offense.

The fear afterward was that he had spinal stenosis, I paid attention to the bit about spinal stenosis because my wife has it. They said that Rob does not have it. He obviously had a bulging disc that they took care of. Its something to be watched but I find your credibility lacking that he'll be done playing in a year or two. He doesn't have degenerative spine disease or any of the trappings that will keep him hurt all the time. Let's give him the benefit of the doubt. BB and his medical staff just invested a bunch of money in this guy and I'm sure they did their due diligence.

I have to believe that the Pat's medical people have examined Gronk's medical records and believe his back is fine now or they wouldn't have chosen him. There were plenty of other teams waiting to scoop him up if we didn't. No I'm not a nurse wendylee03, but I know enough not to make a judgement on someone before you've had a chance to talk to his doctors and review his personal medical records.

In Response to Re: Tom Brady is a Happy Man : You not only dont know anything about the medical field but you know even less about football. May I ask you something, is stupid the only word you know? Im curious, how old are you? 12 or 13? Does your mommy know your on the computer? Im going to guess that you writing in these forums and arguing and insulting all these people makes you feel like a man? Just think how grown up you will feel once your old enough to date a girl, doesnt that sound like fun?

In Response to Re: Tom Brady is a Happy Man : Angry? lol no not angry, tired of reading a child insult people on this forum and do it from behind a keyboard when his mommy doesnt watch him. But since you brought this up let me enlighten you to some things about Business Doctors. A case in point of a baseball pitcher that needed quick surgery to repair a foot for a playoff game. I wont go into detail due to many reasons. What that Doctor did for the good of the team was and is a danger to this man, his being able to walk in the future, nerve damage that will affect him for the rest of his life and other complications that you wouldnt understand. Not to mention his actions being totally unethical because it was not in the patients best interrest. This act was done for MONEY. Please, when you are talking about professional athletes where billions of dollars are spent dont tell me what you think or read in a news paper. You have NO idea what goes on. The illegal drugs used and shot into these men on a daily basis for the good of the eam all the while these players having no idea what the long term effects are. As for Doctors with knowledge far superior to mine? I wont even go there. Doctors are there to treat the problem at that time and moment, Nurses are there before and after helping the patient get over and recover. If you or anyone else in these forums had the real knowledge of how the Team Doctors treat and abuse these young mens bodies you would be running to the nearest attorney. The unfortunate thing is that these boys so willingly do it for the money and fame, and of course to play football. Now there is nothing wrong with that if thats what you want to do, but remember this, you dont see these people when that have these incidents, we do and its not pretty. So next time you want to voice your opinion, maybe its you that needs to do yoru home work and research before you jump the gun and say well he had Doctors tell him he's okay.

In Response to Re: Tom Brady is a Happy Man : Your response is noted, but my point is I have serious doubts for this young man. My concern isnt for a Doctor or team Doctor being paid and looking at this man as a business. My concern is looking at what he faces with the injury he had and the shock to his body that he as a football player is about to sustain. Remember this, he was out for a year in rehab and getting clearence for this future. A broken bone is one thing that easily heals over, a disc removed is a totally different situation. I wont argue with you on this but again my concern is for him as a man not a business.  I hav emy doubts from experience. I hope I am wrong and he never has this occur but I have seen this before with men that dont play a sport such as football and the injury returns in tasks as simple as taking out garbage to the curb. And God forgive me for saying this as a Nurse, but I would put about 30 percent belief into what any Doctor tells you. And that is from expierience

M1021us, I amend my research...one overweight TE, one with back trouble, and one pothead....lol great group. I hope Alge can still block, that Gronk's back holds up, and AH doesn't smoke anymore weed.

And God forgive me for saying this as a Nurse, but I would put about 30 percent belief into what any Doctor tells you. And that is from expierience. I find this especially funny, because I would trust a Doctor's opinion way more than I would a nurse....That is why the DR's get paid more, they have the education behind them that the Nurses do not..... The fact that you think that you know more than the Dr's proves to me that you are all about yourself and you have your head up your s phincter.....
