Big Daddy 
Posted in Rogers has a blood clot in his leg. That’s pretty much all they said. I am wondering if it’s Phlebitis which can cause death by the clot moving to the heart. He has to be treated with drugs like blood thinners and it’s possible he may never play again. I hope he gets over this and gets healthy.
Marvin Austin is having some back issues. Lets hope it’s just soreness from not playing for two years.
Martin Parker is out for the year due to a herniated disc in his back.
We had a lot of DTs and they are disappearing. It was lucky that Hendricks showed something out there, he played great.
Hendricks looks serious about stepping out of the practice squad, so hopefully it isn’t just an apparition because we’re going to need him to step up.
I am a collegiate umpire and suffered a herniated disc and I am out for the year. It’s no joke.
I’m sorry to hear about that, the pain oh the pain.
I have 4 herniated discs in my neck, degenerative disc disease in my spine, A fused L4-5 that only healed 75%, herniated discs all through my lower and mid back along with bulging ones, 2 compression fractures at T11-12, damage to an area they just recently found out about on the spine and a partridge in a pair tree.
And my HMO won’t give me an electric wheelchair.
Not to mention I have 2 bad knees, my lower legs where destroyed by taking statins, big mistake, I have edema and they swell up to make me look like Fred Flintstone not to mention numbness. I have diabetes and high blood pressure. A fallen arch in my left foot and damaged joint in my left ankle. My right shoulder is damaged from a car accident. I also suffer from some type of fibromyalgia sometimes the pain is indescribable.
So I know how you feel when it’s bad it feels like someone is trying to saw you in half, at least that’s how I felt when the disc tore in half.
