I couldn't give a large rats ass about who posted what before me - I spoke to a direct point made in the thread; a couple of them in fact. You, because you're asshurt over some park equipment, are just randomly spewing drivel at anyone who dares question the kind-hearted soul that is Derrick Johnson.
FFS, he's my goddamn screen name. The guy that has his season tickets in front of us lived across the street from him (and down the street from Bowe) and says he's the honest to god nicest person you'd ever meet. I. Don't. Care.
Being nice doesn't stop the goddamn aging process. It doesn't stop injuries from being even harder on guys when they've gotten older. You've made this oddly personal and in so doing you're ignoring a SHITLOAD of history from players that were every bit as committed and dedicated to their crafts and still couldn't bounce back at the ages we're talking about here.
I have no doubt that Derrick Johnson will work hard to come back. I have no doubt that Derrick Johnson THINKS he'll be as good as new and that he may well attend training camp. I also know that time remains unbeaten and untied and generally speaking, athletes don't slowly fade away - they just hit a damn wall. And that's especially true of athletes that suffer major injuries to their lower half.
This is just the harsh reality of it.

Wow, you are just flat out making shit up now. You questioned Why I believed DJ when he says he will be
AT CAMP and I gave you a VERY specific reason why I take his word at face value. I guess that was not a good enough reason because you said I was being a dick, and now acting butthurt.
Did I ever once say DJ will be the same EXACT player and this injury would not take its toll? NEVER.
Everything you have posted is YOUR opinion and has NOTHING to do with DJ saying he will
BE AT CAMP. So keep posting your fluff about aging athletes- because I never disagreed with the fact the age and injuries hurt athletes in the long run. You are only arguing with yourself.
As far as making it Personal- you started with the namecalling.
