ES version of SS.

[quote=ashvirtually;986510]I think it's simple: people love him. He's a great kid, you can't really say anything bad about him except, perhaps, that he is fearless to a fault. Smart, driven, a sensation on and off the field in terms of character and poise. He's money. He's Showtime. He's got the "it" factor to the nth power.

And those people who love him are worried about him.

Like us.

He's going to play football again. And Gaea-willing, he will have finally learned the proper [I]respect[/I] (not fear, because I don't think his heart pumps kool-aid so he has no idea what it is) for what he faces on the field and how important he is to this franchise and will stop taking the risks he takes.[/quote]

It's football. It's a tough sport and guys get hurt all time. The media needs to let it go and so do the fans. He's going to be fine come Sept. If he's not, Cousins will step in and play well.

I'm just pontificating on the why. Same thing happened with Strasburg. With Rivers. With Cutler. Can't make people let it go, especially when people are invested emotionally. It is what it is.

That literally made me laugh out loud at work. Nice

It also has to do with the fact that he is a media "darling". The Redskins have been getting national coverage all year. So when the "savior" is injured he gets a lot of play. People care, he gets ratings, and he will continue to do so.

How many times have all of us checked for updates on his health since he was injured in the game?

I think this particular injury is garnering more attention because there was smoke - alot of smoke- before the fire. So now there is a whole other level to this thing of , could it have been avoided?
