After “Worst Time Of My Life,” Tapper Grateful To Be Back Competing At DE

[Trouty]

6mil?!?!?! They was robbed! Yea, he probably should have gotten the surgery, but I think the real benefit of stem cell treatment is to aide in recovery.

He means a lot to our team, and we have had three pitchers get TJ surgery in the last two years, so they were doing everything they could to avoid another (and for our best pitcher), but I digress.

And yup, $6m.

I tried so many times to follow the Texas Rangers but it never gets me anywhere. We are the Eagles of baseball

Well, we aren't far behind, Loc. Only WS in 2002. Our owner (Arte Moreno) makes Jerry look like Robert Kraft

Baseball is brutal when your team is in a funk, but I've been riding with this team since '96, can't help myself

I even bought an authentic darvish jersey....I'm disappointed.

He's actually been pitching well this year, and staying healthy.

‘Tap is back.’

I like that.

A lot.

Lol I share in your pain bro. I'm a Rangers fan as well

That 11 game winning streak we went on got us back on track. The stupid Astros only lost 1 game during that stretch unfortunately.

Yup, now it's a race for WC2. No one in the West is catching the Astros.

If tapper gets 4-5 sacks, it will be a success
3 sacks = meh
1-2 = disastrous.

You must be talking about September.

Risen Star...thanks for the OP. It's a great insight.

Anyone know if stem cell injections are legal in the NFL and if it would help Tapper or Smith with their conditions?

I don't think they test for it (If they could).

I don't think it would help Tapper, especially not now.

Maybe on Jaylon because it primarily speeds up healing.

Another motivated player with a chip on his shoulder. Can't wait to see the competition for the defensive line this season. Literally no player is guaranteed a starting spot, very few are guaranteed a roster spot..that will make everyone better.

Yes there are a lot of players with really good physical ability on the DL. Somebody will likely "pop" at DE like Collins did at DT last year.

The Cowboys drafted former Michigan standout defensive end Taco Charlton in the first round last month. Benson Mayowa led the team in sacks. DeMarcus Lawrence will return from January back surgery. Tyrone Crawford will return from shoulder surgery, though moving back to defensive tackle is an option. David Irving flashed major potential in his second season. In March, the Cowboys signed Damontre Moore, a former third-round pick of the New York Giants.

The goal is the sum of those pieces can produce a better pass rush than the group that quietly ranked in the top half of the league in sacks last year.

Tapper has a chance to work his way into that rotation.

Exactly. Summers are brutal. Heck if it's 100 during the day it's got to be 115-120 in the stadium

After being racial slurred, spit on and slapped.

Does that still make it ok? I was raised unless your life or families life is in absolute danger there is no need to hit a woman. Not saying she isn't wrong for what she did...she acted like an ignorant fool using those words and initiating physical force.
