Which test is it? Because I had one in my hand for the Ulnar nerve where they stuck a needle directly into it and that **** was about as painful as anything I've experienced. I was told it would send a shock into the nerve and some machine would test the time it takes for the nerve to respond if it responded which would show if there was damage or the degree of damage. Is that the same test Jaylon has to go through repeatedly?

The only time ive used anything with a needle in the skin is for needle EMG to measure muscle activity. The test you are describing is an NCV test and yep its the one I am referencing. There are NCV tests for nerve conduction velocities that use electrodes and not directly into the tissues, making it easy to run and test for. Progress could be monitored by an NCV easily I would imagine

Smith is intensely important in the up and coming season. He has to have a great season for the defense to improve as a unit in a player reduction over view.

Yep, pretty familiar with the area. Not enough to get around on my own by any means yet though! We'll be out there in a few weeks to scout the venue

We always go to Point Magu and take pictures. It's beautiful! We went to Zuma beach last summer

Point Magu is nice!
Hope you like rock cod from the central coast - but dont eat fish caught in LA (PCB contamination)

The War Room needs to pull another Johnny Manziel maneuver on Jerry if he tries to get Garrett. Don't get me wrong - I would love for him to be a Cowboy. But the cost just isn't worth it. Not even close.
I say offer our next 8 second rounders. Given our hit rate in that round we'd be better off dumping those picks.

But not 50%. There was never any guarantee Jaylon would ever have besn a great NFL player. I am not saying he cannot be a great player buts its looking like a long shot. Too bad. The Cowboys really need this boys talent.
Book it. Another 2nd round bust.
