Latest Jaylon Smith tweet

[FuzzyLumpkins]

He makes posting on his twitter account I don't blame him for idiots who read why too much into it. Hell that seems to be there problem not his. I think you guys make why too much out of stupid things. That is what I think.

When he is ready to come back and that will be news until then this other BS is in people own head and what they choose to think or believe.

Who said anything about blaming him?

I do like how you think that a whole lot of people who make the same inference which can be reasonably supported are 'idiots' though.

 

[Echo9]

It is his personal life really does he need to explain every single thing he does or says or? You guys are putting way to much into this

Jeez man. You aren't getting any of this are you? I never said he had to explain. In fact, I very CLEARLY explained multiple times that he does not need to explain. I am not, nor have I inferred that I think he should explain. I am saying that he is fully aware that these one word tweets are designed to make fans wonder what he means and whether it means something in regards to his injury.

re·demp·tion
rəˈdem(p)SH(ə)n/
noun

1. the action of regaining or gaining possession of something in exchange for payment, or clearing a debt.

Yeah its a real stretch.

.
the action of saving or being saved from sin, error, or evil.

As I said when he is ready he will be back on the field and until then I feel sorry for gullible people who read way too much into simple things. If he is doing this on purpose good for him, evidently there are a lot suckers out there.

 

[FuzzyLumpkins]

And all you are doing is guessing. He is probably under orders? You don't know that which goes back to people and their own personal hang ups. There is no hidden message here. When he is ready to return he will return it is that simple but to act as if there is some hidden message in any little thing he post

Every time that he is asked about specifics he defers it to the doctors and trainers. The trainers and such are not readily available. We just got through Broaddus whinging about Garrett being cagey with injuries and Rowan Kavner used to complain about it incessantly when he was here. It's not rocket surgery.

The OP on this thread seem to be blaming him. Because it is a word, he never says a damn thing about his knee, the nerve or his health. People do that,

In that context it means you regain through repentance the grace of God you lost because of sins . It means the same thing but applied specifically.

If you want to believe that he is atoning for sin and crowing about it on twitter then have at it. That is precisely the type of vainglorious hubris that is repudiated repeatedly in scripture but okay.

well i certainly didn't. and whether it's right wrong or indifferent is irrelevant to the point being made.

This is a conclusion that many, including Fuz and I, have been coming to.
Because if it is marketing, it is not good marketing.
Only the most rabid fans would be following this.
With those fans, he does not need to do any marketing.
In general, Jaylon is plenty big, and does not need marketing in the next few months.

Personally, I think it is good marketing. He's building on the mystery, while hinting that we could be in for some good news down the line. More than jsut rabid fans would be following this, as proven by Fisher asking about it. That funnels the question as to his status into the media.

He made it clear last time this happened that hes completely aware what this does to the fanbase. Anyone on any social media that posts something this vague is seeking attention.

No doubt. In this case, I'm fine with him looking for attention. Just as long as the eventual news we get aligns with all this. Before he was doing this stuff, I basically assumed we'd be lucky if he played next year. Now (as a direct result of these vague hints) I can see the possibility that he's on the active roster some time this year.

What's wrong with us getting giddy at his tweets? Even if we have tinfoil hats on?

He's a Cowboy, and perchance a high impact Cowboy, it behooves us to stay on top of his progress, Dooms.

It's code for Tampa Bay look out! I guess none of you bought the decoder ring?

Yeah i dont care that he does it.

 

[MRV52]

most likely he will not know where he should be in a zone or whom to cover in different packages at that time. Also fitting into team chemistry for backing each other in defense would be hard, unless they give him very limited plays or snaps, so I wouldn't get my hopes up this year but I would be thrilled if he gets a few games this year and a complete off season with the team

Chemistry are you serious? Have you seen this guy play at Notre Dame. This kid without his injury would have been a top 5 draft pick. Get him in there the day his nerve fires!!!!

I wrote it. I am not blaming, but just frustrated with not knowing exactly what is going on.

It is good marketing if he is recovering.
Lets hope it is good marketing.
If he is not making progress and in total limbo, i would not be tweets this stuff if i was him.

just curious...why would his vague comments change your stance on probability of positive medical outcome? You went from "lucky" if he plays to likely. What changed?

Yes it is interesting that neither Dr. Cooper or the trainers have been interviewed in a long time...
There is patient doctor privilege info but I suspect that is not the reason

This is what I believe also.
