Will smugly posted this on his personal "networking" site..
"lol - People doubtin my knee like I'm some old man... smh, cant wait for season!"

for us oldsters who wouldn't have a clue what is meant by "smh" ...
it says in effect this this idea (of doubting Will's knee) is
"so stupid, no words can do it justice"

I hope you are right. However, being around college kids for the last 14 or so years I have heard a lot more talk than I've seen action. I'm glad they have a positive attitude... That's an important step.

I'm just a cynic after all these years of hearing good news that turns out good only about 10% of the time... I've also had more than one ACL surgery and am aware of the recovery time, and have known someone (Tony Bennett - UWGB) who's career was ended from a foot stress facture. Just using my experience to help me prepare for the future. That's all I have to draw on, and last year I was dead-on with my AW prediction while most others were sky high with hopes of his return. I wish I would have been wrong.

Seeing is believing. We will see, and we will have a great year if these two kids are really healthy and ready to play from day one as advertised. I hope for the best, while preparing myself for the worst. I guess it's just years of training from being a Cub fan, which is in doubt if the new owner keeps that moron Jim Hendry. I may be looking for another team after 40 years. Change is good... right?

I am in your camp GTD. I hope we are both proven wrong. I also agree that being a Bears and Cubs fan probably has made us this way

I do wish the best for Will. I hate to see any players injured. This is a similar injury to what Mantas Griskenas had his first season with the Shox out of Juco. Needless to say, he never saw much court time the remaining 1 1/2 years after he injured his knee. I hope Egolf has a much better recovery, but a knee injury is ALWAYS serious stuff.

There were times where Mantas felt he was about 100% and was quoted as saying so. But when it came to game time...he just always had some pain and wasn't as mobile which basically ended his career.

I don't know the extent of Egolf's injury, but Mantas tore both his ACL and MCL....so his may have been a bigger injury. Regardless...here is to a full recovery!

Don't forget Bears at Denver tonight @ 7:00 CST, National TV, Sunday Night Football. Cutler goes back to where he came from so it should be very entertaining to see the fan reaction. The third of four exhibitions most approximates a regular season game since the starters go about 3 quarters, the fourth game they don't play so much. Go Bears

. At this point, I see another season with two of our top players a big question mark.

I think you have to look at each individual case as being different and not compare them to what may have happened to yourself or someone else you know because these procedures have gotten so much better now then they were several years ago . I know BU has had so much bad luck losing so many key players do to injury but I would like to believe that the percentages should be with us , Warren and Egolf having things done before the season should give them a better chance at getting healed by the start of the season.
