This does not surprise me because I have a sneaky suspicion that T.O.'s injury is not very severe - so mild that he could have played, if needed, in the Washington game. Look at the signs: Right after T.O. suffered the injury he was all smiles, and even granted the media an interview in which, again, he was all smiles; then, just before the last game against Washington, in his last FWST article, T.O. wrote that he was excited about the fun that was abouit to begin in the playoffs, that he would not miss any games, and to "Just count me in!" (Yes, that was his direct quote!). So if his injury is mild we can see a healthy T.O. come out at 100% to start the playoffs, and I would not at all be surprised.

If you recall, immediately after his injury he was shown walking through the tunnel out of the stadium. He didn't seem to have much if any limp. If it was a severe or even moderate sprain, he wouldn't have been able to put much weight on it. This injury has barely concerned me, and I'm glad to hear his progress is quick!

You can't always tell by the immediate reaction. There's so much adrenaline pumping you don't always feel a lot of pain. I'm not at ALL making a comparison, but I tore my thumb ligament off the bone ski racing and had no idea until the bus ride home.

I was thinking that very same thing, but I also remember T.O. walking off the field in the game he got his leg broke so I'm still hoping that it's as small as it looked. He will play even if he's not 100% but I think he'll be almost perfect when the game rolls around.

i hope and pray he's out there for our 1st playoff game. amazing how when he got here we were so divided on him being a cowboy. now we can't go anywhere w/o him. i think much of that credit goes to TO for his own changes.

True , His attitude has changed for the better. Many people didnt want him here cause he disrespected our star when he played for the 49 ers. Many people have never forgiven him for it either. I hear people say all the time that they will root for him because because he his playing for the Cowboys..but they still dont like him.
Myself...I have to admit I hated what he did as much as anyone else, but I have to be truthful in saying that if he had been a Cowboy and ran out and done that to them...I would have loved it.
So now as far as I'm concerned he is a Cowboy...and thats all that matters.:)

Count me as one of those. I'm happy when he helps the Cowboys win, but I'm never happy when it's T.O. doing the helping.

Sorry, but that's just me.

Well I have to admit, I went from calling him B.O. to T.O. and that's all I have to say about that.

I agree with this. He has impressed me this year with more than his play. That always impressed me. I think Ray Sherman has been a great addition for him.

I dunno. I play hockey and when I get hurt, I know it immediately! :laugh2:
