Pat Robertson thinks a Manning injury would "serve them right"
 

http://content.usatoday.com/communit...1#.T2xoCo4yei9

Robertson is not happy with the Broncos shipping out Tim Tebow. So unhappy that he's wishing Peyton Manning bad karma.

Robertson has his own bounty out on the new QB.

Robertson said Denver treated Tebow "shabbily" after all he did for the "nothing team" last season.

"And you just ask yourself, OK, so Peyton Manning was a tremendous MVP quarterback, but he's been injured. If that injury comes back, Denver will find itself without a quarterback. And in my opinion, it would serve them right," he said on the 700 Club.

Robertson has had Tebow's back before. He blasted Saturday Night Live for doing a skit that he felt made fun of Tebow's religious beliefs.

It's still a nothing team. Can't wait for Caleb Hanie to be forced into action.

This guy is a complete loon and always has been. Some of his other greatest hits:

Any failure on the field would serve the Broncos right.

He truly is, but he's right on this one.

I am finding myself in the awkward position of agreeing with this nutjob.

As do I. I hope Manning goes down this year and never takes the field ever again, and it sets the donks back 10 years.

Pat should stick to the Bible. He obviously does not understand karma.

Im a Christian and think Robertson is a complete nutjob.

Just an idiotic thing to say. Why can't people stop talking about such a crappy player? Good grief.

The Broncos are a circus.

What did he say that was wrong?

Robertson said Denver treated Tebow "shabbily" after all he did for the "nothing team" last season.

"And you just ask yourself, OK, so Peyton Manning was a tremendous MVP quarterback, but he's been injured. If that injury comes back, Denver will find itself without a quarterback. And in my opinion, it would serve them right," he said.

He didn't wish injury on Manning (and he didn't say ANYTHING about karma, Denise. That was editorializing on the part of the columnist).

He said they treated Tebow poorly (and they did) and said last year's Broncos were a nothing team (they were).

He said if Manning were to get injured, they would be without a QB (they would) and it would serve them right (it absolutely would serve them right if they go into the season with Caleb Hanie as the backup, TYLER PALKO beat him).

No, that show moved to Gotham.

Do you people actually read the article? He said nothing about karma, he wished nothing ill on Manning, he just said IF Manning happens to get hurt and leave the Broncos without a viable QB, it would serve them right. And he is 100% accurate.

Precisely. There's a short video where you can hear what he said verbatim.

I think Robertson is a freaking loon in this case.

Take off our Chiefs blinders for a second and look at this decision from a pure football business standpoint. Who do you take between Peyton Manning (even if coming off injury) or Tim Tebow if your the Chiefs?

If you said Tim Tebow your a freaking idiot and then some. Tebow is a great guy that any parent would love to have their daughters marry but lets be honest here, this is football and he isn't going to win you a damn Super Bowl. This is the NFL, the name of the game is winning Championships. Having Tebow on your roster is like having Matt Cassel in the long run. The Chiefs wanted Peyton Manning badly, that should tell you everything right there.

So Robertson is butt hurt that the Broncos are moving a bad QB for a proven NFL winner? Just because the guy they are moving is the second coming of Jesus???

Robertson needs to stick to preaching and leave football decisions to those that know football.

THIS.

Dude is a nut and he sucks, but it WOULD serve them right...for being douchebags

i'll just say, John Elway and Pat Bowlin needs to remember "what goes around, comes around".

Oh, and btw...

Q

One of my facebook friends is the girlfriend of an old navy buddy that lives in Colorado. She posted a tirade about the Donx dumping Tebow - not a peep about Manning, just rage over them dissing poor Timmy.

These people are insane.

But FWIW, if God decides to smite Manning with the jawbone of an ass, I'm good with that. It would take out him and Elway at the same time.

I like the "nothing team" part. I laughed!

I pretty much agree that the Donks treated him poorly, but I don't think it could be helped either.

Oh well. I never hope for injury so I hope Manning re-aggravates the next working out or brushing his teeth or something.

i never wanna see injuries either but Manning deserves what he gets.
i'm still ticked because he disrespected the Chiefs by showing no intrest when we have a better team than the Broncos.

maybe Clark should have designed a new Chiefs logo with a Horse or Elways face on it.

Wow.

If he goes down it will most likely be due to a knee or a shoulder, it won't be because of his neck. His neck is stronger than ever. Spinal fusion is actually pretty common in the NFL. There have been LB's and FB's who have had that surgery and continued to play at a high level.

"Once the fusion occurs, then really that fusion is going to be as strong as anything," said Dr. Eric McCarty, chief of sports medicine at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus.

"You do have to make sure thatit's healed and that the bones are completely fused to each other. But once that occurs, that's not going to break. But once you've had a nerve injury, nerves take a long time to regenerate, if at all, and if you've had a lot of compression on a nerve, you could have some permanent damage. Basically the nerve is the electrical power to the muscle, and sometimes that power gets crimped and it doesn't regenerate all the way. And that's the real issue in terms of recovery."

Former teammate Brandon Stokley played catch with the QB recently and said Manning's arm strength had returned and that "he looks great."

Players have returned to the NFL after fusion surgery, including former Panthers quarterback Chris Weinke, who had fusion surgery before his last season at Florida State. He played nine seasons — one in college, eight in the NFL — after his fusion surgery, including five seasons for current Broncos coach John Fox during Fox's tenure as coach at Carolina.

Dr. Robert Watkins, the renowned back specialist who performed Manning's surgery, announced Feb. 2 he had cleared Manning to resume his playing career.

In 2010, Dr. Wellington K. Hsu, a surgeon and assistant professor at Northwestern University, published a study of 99 NFL players who had suffered herniated discs. Of those 99 players, 53 had surgeries and 46 opted for nonsurgical treatments. Hsu's study found players who had surgery had higher return-to-play rates and longer careers.

McCarty said there is concern, over time, not about the fusion, but rather the area just above and just below the fusion.


"What you do need to be careful of are the adjacent levels, above and below the fusion," McCarty said. "Because now you have this segment of vertebrae that is stiff with flexible areas above and below so you are at risk of developing some degenerative conditions of the areas above and below the fusion.

"Not necessarily a catastrophic risk, but there is a risk, and that's true of everyone. That can cause some pain and sometimes you have to go in and fuse those levels. But there have been a lot of athletes, football players, who have played with single level fusion and gone off and played successfully."

Some of you guys get wrapped up in the most mind numbing bullsh and will debate it into the ground.

Yeah, I bet no Bronco fans talked about this.

Why does Robertson need to talk about Tebow anyways? What's the point? Ratings maybe? I just wish people would stop talking about an insignificant player.


And who cares If they treated Tebow poorly or not? He wasn't treated any differently than any other NFL player and it wasn't because of his faith if thats what Robertson was trying to imply? Robertson can stay the heck out of sportstalk radio territory. Senile imbecile.

Honestly, I heard this on a show this morning and dismissed it... Robertson is crazy. I don't care who thinks it makes sense or not, the dude is nuts and the fact people are debating it just says you guys are bored. Enjoy though.

Pat Robertson is such a pathetic fake christian. And a complete hypocrit. Tebow is being treated like any other mediocre qb when a team can get a great one. Pat seems to think Tebow should get special treatment bc he's an in your face christian. And, while he didn't precisely say it, he's clearly implying that that he wishes harm upon the Broncos for not kissing little Timmy's ass.

Btw, if Manning does get hurt, Elway will still think its money well spent; bc he would still have escaped from 3 or so years trapped by public pressure into trying to develop a guy without an nfl skillset.

robertson on haiti is an all-time classic. magnifico.

1) Pat Robertson is a loon.

2) Pat Robertson doesn't know what karma means.

3) Pat Robertson preaches hate as a doctrine of Christianity.

OK, I've read the article and you are correct regarding what he is actually quoted as saying. Still...Robertson needs looser pants to hide that Tebowner of his.

i just love the part where he says "true story"

I hope your steroids make your balls fall off and your liver fail and you slip on the bench and take a full bar to the throat.

Manning, Hunter honored

<cite class="source"> Associated Press</cite>
INDIANAPOLIS -- Peyton Manning always dreamed of being as good a football player as his dad.

Archie Manning might be more even impressed with how his son has embraced the importance of giving back to his community.

On Sunday, the NFL's four-time MVP winner was honored for his charitable work by earning the Youthlinks Indiana National Pathfinder Award, becoming the first second generation member to win the award.

"It's neat," Peyton Manning said. "You know this morning we were all together down in Jackson, Miss., for something Eli was doing and it's not often we all get to be together like that. But it's really an honor to be here to get this award."

The award is given to individuals who have demonstrated a commitment to helping children, and few have been more active in that pursuit than football's first family.

Manning's parents shared the Pathfinder Award in 2006 but did not attend Sunday's banquet.

The perennial Pro Bowler, however, flew back to Indianapolis, where he serves as the face of the Colts' franchise and has one of the city's most prominent charitable organizations, the PeyBack Foundation to show everyone that what it really means to be like father, like son.

Last year, Manning's annual celebrity bowling tournament raised $335,000 for at-risk children, and he annually hosts local high school football games at Lucas Oil Stadium to open the prep season. Manning also has donated Christmas gifts to underprivileged children in Indiana, Tennessee and Louisiana for more than a decade.

But three years ago, Manning's contributions took on a whole new dimension when a local children's hospital changed its name to Peyton Manning Children's Hospital at St.Vincent's. Manning and his wife, Ashley, run the foundation

"You know no one wants to go to the hospital and go to the doctor, but if we can give them some sense of being comfortable there, helping them, that's what we want to do," Manning said. "You don't know how much it means every time we get a letter from a parent about their visit."

Yep. I'm sure God will strike down the Broncos for letting such a horrible man be part of our team. Maybe God will let Pat Robertson watch?

I remember that time he was pissed about Vince Young's shabby treatment by the Titans.

Why because they shunned the all mighty tebow?lol He talks as if tebows a direct link to god.:shake: ROFL

That would be karma.

I didn't know Robertson was a faith healer.

That's hilarious. How can anyone believe a guy who used to be a scam artist?

If someone truly wants to believe the scam, it doesn't take an artist.

He's the Al Sharpton of bible-thumping white people.

Tebow has to put on his sweater vest & go stomp/stump for Santorum

Meanwhile, I think we should find out what Paula Deen thinks about the Tebow situation. Her opinion is equally valid.

I hope you get the chance to one day tell me this in person.

And I hope your kids, if you managed to have any, get leukemia and you die a long slow death while you watch your parents get fist ****ed to death by group of mad rapists as the last thing you ever see.

I doubt that you frequent the same establishments.

LMAO You poor bastard.

You're right I generally don't venture into transvestite bars.

I know. It's kind of sad and funny at the same time.

The part where he visits transvestite bars, or where his parents get fisted to death?

And malodorous too I'd imagine.

That's quite the reach around party going on between a Chief and Donkey fan......

Who gives a shit what a Televangelist says about football.

Look, chances are you're a good person out there in the real world. We'd probably kick back and bullshit at a bar watching a game. I tend to get along well with rival fans because I'm a fan of NFL football, and I root for the Broncos. And I like shooting the shit with guys who really follow their teams.

But you do come across as some kind of hyper-macho muscle head on this site. You use overly aggressive phraseology. It's funny, it lends itself to humor quite well. I doubt that you speak this way in real life. No biggie. It's a message board. But as long as you do it there will be the occasional person who flips you shit for it. I like to think that you're chuckling behind your screen in these threads. That you also see the humor and you're a willing participant.

Oh I love it.

how many guys do you know that bench press right short of 500 that also do enterprise architecture on unix platforms?

I love when someone tosses the caveman tag at me because they need to put me in a nice little box. So I play right along.

But make no mistake, if someone wants to act like a bitch, I'll treat em like one.

Cool, did you see that thread on the Raspberry Pi?

http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=257484

I'm thinking about grabbing one for my son. He's 14 and has expressed interest in video game development. Looks like a cheap way to get him goofing around in electronics.

He's right. Denver deserves a Manning injury and the 3rd overall pick in a draft where the most talented QB available to them is Mark Sanchez.

Holy shit.

I had not seen this thread, but we had this conversation yesterday at work. Where was the next generation of gaming consoles going to come from? I said I thought it would be built right into the tv or be the size of a small phone.

That's pretty freakin cool.

I know, looks bad ass. I might grab one for me and one for him.

GOD HATES DENVER

This.

As creepy as it was, I actually did watch the video. Robertson is chomping at the bit to imply some sort of Godly retribution upon the Broncos for daring to abandon Tebow. Ask yourself why that tool is even bringing this up on his program.

SYN I grew up 3 miles from this guy's house. He's a moron with a "university". It's funny. I think you can get a degree in creationism.

Headlines in September:

Pat Robertson puts bounty out on Manning--suspended from the NFL indefinitely

Isn't this the same jackass that said the Haitian earthquake was some pact with the devil?

I missed that, but it sounds about right.

Danny Glover, however, thinks it was caused by global warming. Not sure which one is dumber. LMAO

I was born in Virginia as you were (Newport News). I spent ten of the first fifteen years of my life there, with a five year stay in Texas. Believe me, I am well aware of Pat Robertson.

He's also the same guy who originally went along with Jerry Falwell's pronouncement that 9/11 happened because God had removed His holy defense from America to punish us for being nice to gay people, among other things.

I'm curious how many idiots out there actually believe the drivel spewing from his mouth?

He's certifiable.

My grandmother was an evangelical fundamentalist Christian. She dismissed him.

Outrageous proclamations are how these people stay in the public eye and keep themselves going. Sharpton, Phelps, etc.
I'm convinced they don't believe most of what they say.

The Broncos sacrificed a virgin to win another Super Bowl.

Take notes, Clark.

She rarely spoke against people. She just said (paraphrase), "He's on the wrong path. Christians who read the Bible know better."

Don't know about that, he did blame 9/11 on gays.

On his Christian Broadcasting Network show yesterday, Rev. Pat Robertson said that the nation of Haiti has been devastated by a large earthquake because its people "made a pact with the devil."

"Something happened a long time ago in Haiti, and people might not want to talk about it," Robertson said. "They were under the heel of the French ... and they got together and swore a pact to the devil. They said, 'We will serve you if you'll get us free from the French.'"

"True story," he continued. "And the devil said, 'OK, it's a deal.' Ever since, they have been cursed by one thing after another."

I assume he is referring to Voodoo? Or maybe that large insect that buzzes around in his brain whispered it to him. I have no idea.

I don't know anyone that likes/watches/believes him but a blind squirrel does find a nut every now and then.

...and that particular blind squirrel still hasn't found one.

Hey mods, can you merge this with the "How Do You Flush This Type Of Toilet" thread?

I am not sure how they recovered from the McDaniels set back so quickly, anybody else would still be dealing with it. He made some major blunders, that should have been crippling.
