God forbid someone dare say something that is contrary to what you think. It must be difficult to be you... keeping everyone else abreast of the way things really are, according to you.

God forbid you can't provide facts to backup your so called 100% truth. It must be difficult to be you... keeping everyone else abreast of the way things really are, according to you

That was FUN!

Bye bye... But you already knew I was leaving before I did.....

I gave my opinion and I never said it was "100%". I don't have to have facts to back up an opinion.

What a bunch of puerile bloviation. Oh well, useful for deciding whose opinions can be safely ignored.

There is truth in what was, what is, and what will be. I will accept my "guess" as not true when it becomes otherwise. Until then I have as much rightful claim to it as the good Dr. that did Jaylon's surgery.

So the truth is mutable then?

In reality physicists can only predict the location of an electron after it undergoes a state change in terms of probabilities. Scientists and doctors making predictions will look at past observations amongst a population or other set and determine probable outcomes. Thatis the truth about the future.

While you are entitled to your opinion just like any other person, your credibility and expertise are lacking. Dr. Cooper has direct experience with peroneal nerve injuries both in general and in this specific case. Further, in interviews, he has demonstrated an informed opinion by describing the state of the nerve and regeneration to this point. He has access to the patient, his medical imaging, and all manner of things that you are completely ignorant of.

It is interesting what mental gymnastics people will go through for certainty.

you said it was the truth. The truth implies that it is determined in reality to happen. Your proof is a bunch of handwaving.

Are you just feeling lonely tonight and need attention or something?

The good Dr. has the inside scoop no doubt.

Jaylon is yet to play since his unfortunate injury. I have stated he will never play again. Until he does play again you can not definitively classify my statement as untrue.

If the Patriots drafted a guy that was worked on by their team doctor people would call it cheating. Just saying.

Smith isn't going to play this season, regardless. Think he's been a bit post-draft overrated (a la Randy Gregory) as well.

I don't care if you believe me. I told you the truth, believing it is up to you. It doesn't change the outcome one way or the other. Smith will never play again.

Smith will play again, he is healing right on schedule. I am telling the truth, you don't wanna believe it, it is up to you. You negativism will not change the outcome one way or the other. Smith will be on that field once again and prove to be the genius pick of the draft

I hope you are right. He was too good of a player to never play as a pro. Even if he does play again, he has high expectations to meet before drafting him can be called a "genius pick". Let's just get him on the field first.

Yes... the truth as I know it. And as it hasn't happened yet, you can't dispute it.

How so? Before this injury, he was thought of as a top 10 draft pick.

But does Dr. Cooper post on the internet?

Jaylon, the doctor , the team, are all just hoping. The nerve damage is not something that anybody can be sure about. If he returns, he may never be the same player as he ince was. All we can do is hope.

That was an oddly written piece in NBC_PFT. They go straight to calling the doctor "Cooper" without ever saying his full name and not even using "Dr" other than from a direct quote from someone else. lol No big, deal...just odd.
