[B]-- JIMOH HAS CHEST INJURY[/B]


Cornerback Ade Jimoh suffered a bruised sternum in practice earlier this week and the fourth-year player is expected to miss this Sunday's preseason opener against the Cincinnati Bengals.
Jimoh sustained the injury when he had a collision with running back Rock Cartwright and he got hit in the chest.
It is hoped that Jimoh will be ready by the Aug. 19 preseason game against the New York Jets. Jimoh's sternum injury is not as serious as the one that limited Fred Smoot in 2003, team officials said. Smoot missed one game but he was hindered for several weeks afterward but still managed to play through the pain.

OMFG!

This is a f*&king disaster! I hope this report is right and it is not serious. Otherwise, we're a lock for next year's #1 draft pick...

My whole world is crashing down on me - I had no idea that The Ade could be injured. I thought he was the injurer not the injuree. This is crap!

The Ade is a warrior - he'll be back soon.

Re: What Could be worse than an injury to Brunell
 

Rule #1, stay low when you tackle, don't take one to the sternum.

Yeah - I didn't want to ruin the positive momentum...

I've actually been travelling a lot and swamped at work. No offense, but the last few weeks have been BORING sports wise.

But I'm back and soon, so will The Ade!

Re: What Could be worse than an injury to Brunell
 

I had a severely bruised sternum when some idiot in a Eclipse hit me head-on.

Actually, I have a dent in my chest from it now, so Jimoh's probably not as roughed up as I was, but it's a painful injury. It's tough to breath, hurts to swallow and I kept getting the hiccups after the collision which REALLY REALLY hurt.


Just keep it iced, Ade.

Come over to the right coast and say that to me.

Re: What Could be worse than an injury to Brunell
 

No offense, but I seriously doubt you are a chisseled piece of titanium like our boy The Ade. The Ade can't really be hurt bad, he's just trying to give some of the younger guys some playing time.

It's not like he has to prove himself anymore...

it will not be too long until jimoh and chuck norris are mentioned in the same breath

Re: What Could be worse than an injury to Brunell
 

Yesterday shawn springs was signing autographs and people were talking to him. Someone about 6 feet away from him down the line said "look at me, look" So shawn looks over. The guy then said, Don't get injured so we don't have to put Ade Freaking Jimoh in and everyone started to laugh. It must have been the way he said it but i had to share. Shawn even laughed a bit but didn't say anything, only nodded his head.

I have my guesses.

Re: What Could be worse than an injury to Brunell
 

In Madden, I put Ade on the trading block...and my best offer was a 6 pack of Schlitz and a bag of pork rinds. I took it...

The Ade is a good backup and knows the system. He'll be back before you know it.

Damn, looks like you got the better end of that deal.

Re: What Could be worse than an injury to Brunell
 

Although I enjoy the Ade jokes like everyone else on the site, you've got to admit he's a spectacular special teamer. I know many people don't find great special teamers so special, but his ST play has kept him on the roster for several years as an undrafted corner ... which is pretty rare.

Re: What Could be worse than an injury to Brunell
 

To answer the thread ,

Losing Joe Gibbs as your coach .:)

Re: What Could be worse than an injury to Brunell
 

I concur Sheriff. Where you been by the way?

I nominate Sheriff GG for post of the week. Well said...

Busting my butt at work. I have totally neglected everything outside of work for the past 12 weeks. It's good to be back. My typing fingers are in midseason form now.

Re: What Could be worse than an injury to Brunell
 

I believe that I read in the post that Ade is the number 3. That is amazing if you ask me. Kenny Wright was a starting CB for a pretty damn good defense.

He also seems to have taken a step forward in his pass protection last year. He seems to play fairly solid as long as he keeps his guy in front of him. He needs safety help over the top... that is the part he needs to improve.

You're right, most people do overlook oustanding special teamers. However, I just wanted to point out that I always ink Kato Serwanga on my Madden franchises cause he had one game for the Skins where he went absolutely nuts downing punts and even laid the wood to somebody. Only two problems, that was like 3 or 4 years ago and now he's a Giant...or at least I think he's still a Giant.

Re: What Could be worse than an injury to Brunell
 

When I think of great special teamers, I think of Greg Manusky back in the late 80s early 90s. He was always the most excited special teamer I can remember. He used to celebrate every tackle whether or not he made it. I remember seeing him remove his helmet and reveal a mohawk when he first started with the team. Hence the name.

Agreed. It is hard for me to type these words, I am so weighed down by grief. The light of hope for a great season has gone and I dwell in darkness.

But seriously, Ade Jimoh is a fine player, as a backup corner as well as a special teams star. Gregg Williams' coaching has got him into shape and I feel confident with him coming in as a starter.

Re: What Could be worse than an injury to Brunell
 

Due to Mr. Jimoh's recent request, will you be changing your name to Adebolah Jimoh Fan Club?

Re: What Could be worse than an injury to Brunell
 

One of my favorite plays of last season was an unheralded, but really important tackle by Jimoh. When he knocked Fitzgerald for a one-yard loss on the Cardinals final drive. That was awesome and helped seal a crucial victory.

Re: What Could be worse than an injury to Brunell
 

How about the final game vs. Seattle. He was a beast on special teams with 2 big tackles on punt coverage and a forced fumble. He is a keeper.

Do you remember how we cut Serwanga, he signed with the Giants, the very first game he played for the G-men was against us, and he forced McCants to fumble on a drive that might have put us in a position to win the game? I only remember because I was incredibly pissed at the time about the fumble.

what about special teams ace rusty tillman? or mike nelms? or eddie brown? can you tell im old school?

Is this for real? The Fan Club was not notified...

Still, I think we'll keep The Ade - it's sounds better than any other variation:

Bolah
DeBol
Aeoa(vowels only?)
or
Blah

Plus, it would be expensive to reprint all of the membership cards and merchandise.

i'd say that losing clinton portis for any prolonged injury related time would be just as,if not more catastrohic than losing any other player on the team other than santanna moss!

-EDIT- 12 hours later, I really wish I hadn't said this.

Re: What Could be worse than an injury to Brunell
 

Worse than Brunell?

An injury to Campbell on top of that.

Re: What Could be worse than an injury to Brunell
 

Losing any of our offensive linemen.

Portis getting injured making a tackle on a shitty brunell throw.......
