    Just got back from my mother's oncologist. They're really happy with the results of her latest CT Scan. All of the cancer has reduced a little. So a really good report.

On a Wednesday? Genius...

It's spelled Guinness

I'm ordering from the local texan 'greek' restaurant, asking for authentic Oshkosh B'Gosh.

Haven't had Greek food in awhile there.

@HazletonEagle

I'm coming up on 2 weeks of the injury (Wednesday).  After two days of trying "normal" activity, I've been resting it.  Schmoopie ordered me a brace that arrived a week after it happened.  That has been very helpful to get me back to moving around and doing work on the house.  While I have been trying to rest and ice it, s*** needs to get done, so its been a balance.

Anyway, yesterday has been the first day that there has not been pain nor "achiness", for lack of a better word.  Today more of the same.  

 

So correct me if I am wrong here....   I'm going to go 2-4 more weeks of the same routine.  Ice, wear a brace that limits movement, advil for inflammation, etc.  Then after that I'm thinking of a support brace that I can wear under jeans.  Doesn't restrict movement but does help keep things in place.  Thoughts?

Sounds like a solid plan. 

Watch it with the advil taken regularly for that long though.

May consider topical Voltaren on the knee so you aren't taking an NSAID through your whole system for so long. You can get a tube at wal mart for 10 bucks.  You may not feel it's a effective (or it might be) but it's worth a shot.

Thank you.  I may check that out.  

 

I was taking advil a lot more up front to combat the inflammation but have scaled it back since.  I'm down to maybe an advil PM or two per night

That's good.  But yeah if its more manageable maybe the topical will do the job.

Voltaren is still an NSAID and is really effective usually. Used to be rx only, but recently went on the shelf. 

And taken topically out won't affect the stomach and liver the same. 

It's cheap, and even if you don't think it helps your knee,  someone will find it useful for something at some point.

It's an anti-inflammatory.  It's a lubricant.   It's both!

Horn at 12, trade up to 30 for Bateman.

I can't decide if the writer really loves Horn or forgot Slay is on the team.

I like Bateman if we go corner first but giving up the third this year would sting a little.

Woops, not the thread I meant to post it in.

Yeah. Ideally for me Horn and Marshall is a dream scenario with the first 2 picks. I like Bateman too, but not really enough to trade up for. I kinda think you might get Bateman with our own 2nd round pick not needing to trade up.

I don’t think Slay influences whether our first pick is on a CB. CB is biggest need IMO

If we end up with Horn without trading back I'll be furious.

 

Staying at 12 and getting Surtain however.....

Agreed regarding the pick. I just thought the writers comment that Horn would instantly become their CB1 seemed odd.

I think the most likely outcome is that neither Horn or Surtain makes it to the 12th pick.  I think both Denver and Dallas go CB unless something unexpected happens.

Horn sounds great to me.  

Surtain is a technician. But Horn gets compared to Ramsey for his tenacity.

I wouldn't be surprised if he was taken before Surtain. Maybe we get Surtain at 12.

I'd be thrilled with either.

Cool.  I'll take one Jaylen Waddle.  If there is one thing this team needs it's more Jaylen's on offense.

I see Dallas going DE IMO.  But you may be right.  They are defiantly going defense.

I could see that.  I guess I disregarded the DE position because I haven't seen a consensus on a DE going in the top 12.
