DMN/FWST Blog: Updated: Newman bothered by groin...sits out practice

[Givincer]

Anyone who thought his groin was actually going to get better this season was fooling themselves.

It's a groin. He's a cornerback. 2 + 2.

 

[dbair1967]

He was still injured a lot in the first 4 years he was just hampered by playing through them.

no he wasnt...amazing how people make crap up to fit their story

He missed 3 games last yr, came back and was outstanding. T New's only previous injury was the knee injury he never said crap about in the 2004 season. You people are freaking amazing with this junk.

He played through it and struggled some early, but never complained. He was called a bust by some really stupid fans here. They never disclosed he played all yr on an injured knee until after the season. Had he not played at all you boneheads would have crucified him for that, saying he didnt have enough toughness to get trough injuries. He played because the team badly needed him out there.

I think he hurt himself pretending to be an airplane.

Maybe this personal trainer that everybody raves about flat-out sucks.. Constant injuries like this may be a sign of muscle imbalance...

Are you referring to Juraszek?

If so, I'd say you should re-think your 'flat-out sucks' idea.

Yeah, I said flat-out sucks... The way this team seems to be suffering from the injury-bug...

So You'd just throw out the fact that the guy that 'flat-out sucks' has kept us relatively injury free for the last 3 years, and has done an outstanding job since he joined the Cowboys in '97. Gotcha.

Absolutist.

You're blaming the wrong people. Injuries happen. Our team doctors, however, shouldn't be let off the hook for their numerous misdiagnosis'(pl). They've been letting these guys back on the field too soon.

I agree with the first of your statements but not the last.

I don't see where they have misdiagnosed anything. Most of you or likely all but one or two of you just don't know medicine. That's entirely understandable since it takes 4 years of medical school and then 3-7 years of post-doctoral study sometimes even more.

There aren't labels on things to say what the problem is. You do tests and use your clinical judgment and come to likely diagnoses. It may take a special CT scan to see a fracture line. Sometimes there aren't any lines until the bone begins to heal. That's just one instance for example. Medicine is not an exact science yet.

I was pre-med my first two years of college. My sister is a doctor. I have a general grasp on how the medical field works. I'm aware of the difficulties in diagnosing muscular injuries. I myself experienced almost two years of back pains and spasms until they figured out that I had a Rhomboid tear and some nerve damage. It happens....but at some level, like the specialist level that the Dallas Cowboys doctors have no doubt achieved, you should be able to get it right the first time.

The Cowboys medical staff has misdiagnosed several injuries this year....and it's been well documented. When they're being paid top-dollar (and I'm sure Jerry is paying them top-dollar), you should be able to keep misdiagnoses to a minimum. They haven't.

I'm not saying they'll never make mistakes, but that they've had more than their fair share as of late.

I guess it's all that "BALLIN" he did last week! He pulled his ball again.

Is it just me or has everybody that got a fat contract in the offseason gotten hurt, or is sucking this year?????????

Can you say salary cap hell in a few years?

Well, "mad ballin" has its consequences...

 

[TellerMorrow34]

Any new news? Has he been labled as out or are they still going with questionable for tomorrow?
