agreed,, Igors back injury has never really been defined, if it has , I missed it.

I havent seen a definitive explanation, rather structural, or muscle sprain, and for being the number 1 off season priority, you would think there would have been a little more information.

The Rivera comparison sends shivers down my spine... no pun.

I hope this concern is squashed in the coming weeks.

Marco Rivera was 10 years older than Igor when his back started acting up

Age has no relevance when there is a problem with the back.
If its just a muscle strain, than I digress.

It was explained. They said it was back spasms and if it was the regular season, he would probably practice and play. Now we all have to just decide if we believe that.

Frankly I have a hard time believing the team on any injury report after the last couple of years.

Agreed. Also, the pics I did see of him since he's been here looked nothing like the physical beast in pics I saw when talk first surfaced of his signing.

Wondering how much simply being out of shape messed him up. Hate to think we got him so cheap because he's not as committed as before and was just looking to get a check.

I am curious about most of our injuries. I wonder if Parcells or Jimmy was here if half these guys would be injured. I like Wade but I think this has to do with is soft side. Now excuse me, while I duck for cover.

I think that's a reasonable point. Wade certainly holds more veterans out of early practices than Parcels ever did, so that's part of it. The high school turf was being blamed for a couple of players. The rest is up for debate, I would think.
