If it's silly, then what else would you base being injury prone on? Agreed about the concussions. He said Gronk hasn't had any recent injuries, when he has missed 4 preseason games while in recovery. Don't forget that Gronk has had back/elbow problems, too. The only thing I'd consider injury "prone" is if you're struggling with the same injuries coming up. Welkers concussions, Antonio Gates foot. So a player could be injured his entire career, and as long as it was a different injury every time, he's not considered injury prone? No, that logic makes no sense to me. Agree to disagree.

Depends on the circumstance I suppose. Some people have thinner bone structure so are more prone to broken bones, so a broken leg and a broken collar bone can be connected. Injuries like Dolas where there's no medical reason to think he's injury "prone" ? I wouldn't say so. Groins aren't connected to ACLs (or whatever his injuries were) Matthew Stafford is a poster child for this. He had what, 3 injury riddled years to start his career? People were calling him injury prone, but now he has played several seasons without issue. For all we know, Gronk and Dola are going to be perfectly fine for years. So it's hard to say they're prone to injury.

So it's hard to say they're prone to injury. Yep. But that's not the only way you can be injury prone. As long as he keeps having consistent injuries, and he's missing large amounts of time due to them, that counts as injury prone IMO. You could say the same thing for Talib or Welker. They could not miss a game for the rest of the career. Same with Gronk and Dola as you said. But nobody can predict the future, so there isn't much point in saying that.

Why 999 Bronco! You madcap! Where you goin' with that shotgun? Relax your horses there, Miller. Technically, you're in somebody else's thread, and helped it to stay way off topic for a few pages. With that in mind, don't tell me to go to a different thread cause I don't feel like reading your never-ending argument with spazskid. What if I actually came in this thread to "see who is your teams best player,your most favourite current player and which player on your roster do you think will most improve this season? "? Really though, I don't give a rats ass. It doesn't bother me, I just scroll through and laugh. I laugh because it's silly. It's silly cause you're both running in circles chasing your tails, getting nowhere. Ain't you dizzy yet? Have a nice day, bro. Oh. Miller, I apologize; I forgot you were there. You may go now.

You strike me as the kind of guy who doesn't take anything seriously, especially his respect for others. Okay, Richard.

Really though, I don't give a rats ass. It doesn't bother me, I just scroll through and laugh. I laugh because it's silly. It's silly cause you're both running in circles chasing your tails, getting nowhere. Ain't you dizzy yet? Right, I'm in somebody else's thread. I did, however, create my own thread in another forum and you bitched about it's uselessness. I didn't bitch about it. Just thought the original title was funny. This discussion started when somebody bashed one of the players on my team and I defended him. That's what die-hard fans are supposed to do, right? Support their team to the end, and if someone bashes a player on my team, are you saying I should just not bother with it at all? No, supporting your team is one thing, beating a dead horse is another. All that I said was it was funny to watch you two both running in circles, chasing your tails.You don't know me, and you're coming in here like you own the forums shouting at me to stop this, stop that. Why? Not once did I tell you to "stop" anything. "Like I own the forums"? Really? All that I've done is chuckle out loud at some things. You need to grow a thicker layer of skin my man.If you don't feel like reading the discussion, MOVE ON. I'd rather defend my team and talk about football than do my best to intrude as a complete stranger trying to piss off someone you've never talked to before, which is what you're doing. Didn't come here with intent to "troll", or piss anyone off. I wasn't even addressing you or your "adversary". I was simply responding to Nateball's comment. Yeah, we get nowhere because he realizes I'm right, and then moves onto another 'fact' and doesn't address what I said. Then he asks me to address what he said. I do, and he just moves on to the next BS stat. A lot of people would be frustrated by that. I would ask you if you could understand my situation, but based on your behavior so far, I doubt you'll be reasonable. It's a shame how you think you're so high and mighty. Get off your high horse and realize how rude you can be, then MAYBE I'll reply to whatever you spew at me next. You obviously have some pre-conceived notion about me before all of this. Yes, my reputation does precede me sometimes. If you think I'm high and mighty, than that's your opinion. I don't think I come off that way though, and very rarely will you see me acting rude to anyone nowadays. I'm going to try to teach you a valuable lesson now...knowing when to just walk away instead of beating a dead horse for days. [walks away, washes hands clean]Have a nice day, bro. You too, I'm done here.
