How the Patriots have handled Armstead’s injury/illness/recovery

[moosekill]

Thing is, if you had actually been following the Patriots since BB became the coach is, he never ever ever gives us details on injuries. Every year new people come on here and complain how awful it is the Patriots don't give out information, and every year, they don't give out information. Complaining about it doesn't help.

With all due respect I do not think that my asking others how they feel about the handling of the Armstead situation is indicative of my knowledge of the team, nor does it imply that I was complaining. I was speaking toward the Armstead situation because it is relevant at this time; I am not going to reference injuries from the 2012 season, and I did not want to make this a broad conversation as I certainly could of. As far complaining about it, yes I said it bothered me but I hardly complained I asked what others thought of it, to gain an understanding if it did not bother them why, you're making a mountain out of a mole hill here.

Regarding my knowledge of the team, while it may not be to the level of some of the more tenured posters in this forum I can confidently say that it is extensive compared to most, if you’d like to review my posts you will see that. I can also tell you that questioning my knowledge or pointing out my potential shortcomings does not translate into your being perceived as a knowledgeable poster. The best posters are the ones who take the time to help someone who is new or maybe incorrect about something, by providing the proper explanation and the reasoning behind it. I’m not saying you don’t do that ever, I’m just saying in this situation you didn’t and I would of respect and appreciated that much more than this.

I did expect these types of response when opening this thread, however I felt the value of hearing others response outweighed the negativity or belittling I’d be forced to withstand, I still feel that to be the case and for that reason I am not going to continue to this discussion with you or anyone else who questions my OP, I am going to show you a level of respect that I believe all members deserve and walk away from what I perceive to be a lose-lose situation. Have a good night.

Thank you to everyone who provide a respectful and honestly response to my OP, I do think that I may of opened a thread about something that did not merit a thread so if a moderator could close out this thread that would be appreciated.
