....and I can say that if this were a player for the Colts, we would be reacting much differently

There is no "we", speak for yourself on that one. I for one don't want to see any player hurt, not even Jets' or RAvens' players.

There are times where I appreciate that it helps our team tremendously seeing certain players out, but don't for a second think that I'm glad a human is suffering for that. This isn't ISIS we're fighting, it's just some pro athletes on the wrong side of a huge rivalry.

Save your hate for the deserving, young one.

Green Bay is a top notch organization with a great coach, QB and team. This is sad news.

Coach?

I think there is a difference between "celebrating" someone else's misfortune and dispassionately observing that such misfortune may benefit you or your interests.

Why be like them, though? We've seen the other side firsthand, and we know how ****ty, obnoxious, and lacking in perspective those people were.

Bleep em all. After 2007, 2008, and this year there's nothing out there deserves sympathy. I'm not going to go around hoping for players on other teams to get hurt (well, except for Bernard Pollard). But when they do, I will be shedding no crocodile tears.

The Colts....

There is no other franchise in the NFL that has stooped to so many lows, nor done more to lose my respect. If one of their star player goes down, I'll feel sorry for that individual, but not for the team or fans

F**** them

EDIT: Oh...and the same is true for the Jets. Their fans and owners do not deserve an ounce of my empathy

Then don't get upset at other teams' fans when they're happy about our guys getting hurt. They're doing pretty much the same thing you are.

If you think the Patriots don't have fans like that, you're living in a dream world.

Crap rolls downhill...if the team or owner is douche, the more likely the fans will be too ... that's all I'm sayin'

Wow, they were already being picked to likely be in the SB based on returning every starter offensively from a team that was a bonehead play away from being in the SB last season. This is a big blow. I will say they have the kind of offense that can overcome a loss like this one and still make it to the dance, but this definitely does not make it any easier obviously.

Another serious injury costs a player a season. Medicine really needs to get to replacement part level in a hurry.

I can already see the headline on ESPN . . . Patriots Caught Cheating for Using Only the Best in Replacement Parts.

Ran my FF team on autodraft last night. The computer picked JN. Regrettably, had to cut him.

Here's to a quick recovery for this classy guy.

fnordcircle said:

Considering the first like, 7 years of Brady's career was reading the exact same ******** argument about him (Oh he's only good cause the defense, he's only good cause Belichick, he's only good cause Moss) I'm gonna say I think you're pretty off here and that a bad QB in a great situation will put up Dilfer numbers not MVP numbers like Rodgers has.

That's exactly what I just said.

I honestly feel bad for teams with season ending injuries to their best players ever since 2008.

I don't wish injuries on anyone, but I reserve my sympathy for teams that felt bad for us in 2008.
