IS it a torn ACL or torn meniscus? Meniscus tears are more uncomfortably painful rather than peformance inhibiting like a ligament tear.

EDIT: Sorry, I was thinking this was about Spears. Reading is fun!

That sucks for them depthwise, but they still have Witten, so I am not pissing in my pants yet.

Indeed I am, and I won't apologize for it!

I would never want to see someone have a career ending injury, and certainly not one that threatens their life or paralysis or something. But players can come back from ACL tears and have a fine career, no serious long-term damage done.

I'm fine with any non-career threatening injury to an opponent. Including this one, even though this guy was only the 3rd TE on the depth chart.

In fact man it looks like his career is over being that it his 3rd on the SAME knee and also the third in 5 years everybody is saying that it's career ending

On a team with Fasano, Hannam, and Witten, I don't think they are going to miss him all that much.

If it is career ending, then that sucks and I feel for him.

Again, many of us were happy when Aikman's career was ended.
