Anyhow, I'm back, and I'll be around.

Well hope it's all good now man. I've had my share as well lol

Are you serious? He is a boy. He is 22 years old. Stop trying to stir the pot. Besides Alvin Walton is 200 percent rite.

My prayers are with RG3 and all those involved in this situation; especially his family.

I've been noticing a great deal of concern, frustration and finger pointing the last few days. All understandable under the circumstances.

However I believe the NFL has a procedural problem here that needs to be addressed sooner than later. Decisions on a players health should be in the sole hands of an independent medical team; not an athelete or a coach in the heat of 'battle'. Medical conditions should be vetted and decided by medical professionals not caught up in the warrior mentality of the moment. I hope the NFL approaches these medical issues on a league level and delivers a sound policy and procedure to protect those who should not be on the field due to medical conditions that happen as part of the game. Just my 2 cents...

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 respect (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.

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.

Yes, I agree with you. This is football. He's going to heal up and he will play football again.

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?
