I'm sure they line up Parsons everywhere but everytime I see highlights of him he's rushing over the RT.

Parsons vs Lane would be awesome to watch.

That's what it looks like to me, always lined up on the RT.

This board is going to be amazing if the Turds win Sunday night.

I've seen him sometimes lined up on the LT but majority seems like it's against the RT.

Stone Cold Dan Quinn might strictly line him up vs Mailata/Driscoll instead of Lane.

Phillies are scoring runs. Wonder how many people get to see iit

You think? IMHO Driscoll has been lousy. The problem is, right now, we have nobody else.

Siri has stated he's pleased with the way he's playing 

He's not as big and physical as Mailata and he's not as quick as Dillard but for a guy that is the 3rd string LT and it's not his best position I think he's done surprisingly ok.

Hopefully Mailata will be back for cowboys and if not I'd feel more comfortable with Dillard at LT than drsicoll.

But if driscoll is it I've seen worse LTs.

I remember in our Super Bowl year we ran up against the Broncos, and Von Miller was sacking QBs like crazy. We completely neutralized him that day with a fantastic game plan and ultimately crushed the Denver D. I’d love to see a similar story this week

Until the final minute of the game when he jumped offsides and sacked the quarterback and inexplicably no penalty was called. Sure it was the closing moments of a blowout and everyone wants to just go home, but the officials should still take pride in their work and not overlook something as flagrant as that.

I was at this game. At the end of the game he got a meaningless sack fumble that he was 100000000% off sides on. I had a perfect angle. But at the time the game was a blow out and I dont think anyone cares

Average male height according to Google is 5'7"

I believe in the U.S. it's 5'9". In 1860 it was 5'7" in the U.S. We have an excellent base of data for these numbers - the U.S. Army.

Europeans were, and are, slightly shorter on average.

The more noticeable difference is in weight. Today's men weigh 35-40 pounds more than their counterparts 160 years ago.

A dislocated knee to a medical person is a torn ACL and PCL allowing the tibia to dislocate. Its associated with a high incidence of neurovascular compromise and is a medical emergency to save the limb.

A dislocated patella is what it sounds like you are describing. Thats a dislocated knee cap.  Not a dislocated knee (although so many people refer to it that way.) If I have a knee immobilizer available, as a trainer at a football game should, I wouldn't necessarily have that athlete go to the hospital at all. They wont do anything for that athlete. Its a wasted trip. A waste of the athlete and family's time. A waste of hospital resources. A waste of insurance medical dollars.

During the fall season, we offer a saturday morning injury clinic (because of friday night football injuries). If there is no orthopedic walk in clinic available in the area that they can get to the next day, I would facilitate a referral to orthopedics on Monday and would advise them to only go to the ED if the pain is severe.

That injury can wait to go to an urgent care clinic, or better yet directly to an ortho specialist. Theyll x-ray to make sure there is no associated fracture of the patella or osteochondral lesion to the end of the femur, or posterior surface of the knee cap. But even if a fracture has happened, the treatment is the knee immobilizer. And then physical therapy.

There is no medical emergency. No further treatment the ED will offer. Theyre just going to refer to ortho anyway. And of its a first time incident, its unlikely to be operated on.

 

As far as the camera guy, if his wrist hurt, I dont see why he would need an ambulance to take him to the ED. Talk about another waste of insurance dollars and resources... A ride in a car seems adequate.

 

Only reason I went ER when I dislocated my knee cap was because it was out, we actually stopped at an urgent care clinic and no body there knew how to out it in, they wanted to put me to sleep then figure it out😳

My mom said no and we drive down to the hospital and they had a guy who could helped me out if the car while holding in to my leg to get me in a wheel chair, as they were wheeling me down the hall to the ER a passing doctor saw me and said I my gosh what's that out the window???

As I looked he extended my leg and popped it back in.

He told me if my patella ever came out again that all I had to do to put it back in is pull up on calf with one hand and push down lightly in quad with other hand and presto right back in.

The next few times I popped it in myself and whoever I was with would always freak out.

He filed a police report not a lawsuit.  He indicated that he went to the ER in the police report.  I imagine he went to the ER. One ER visit doesn't make for either a serious injury or a big lawsuit.  If he does have some more significant injury, then I think Adams should potentially have to pay those damages.  I haven't seen anything that indicates he wants to sue Adams for damages.  

Want to bet there isn’t a personal injury attorney involved.  Heck I would say the odds are good that an attorney was contacted before he filed a police report or went to the hospital.

Wonder if the US Army inflates those numbers for the same reason football teams do?🤔

That’s tiny.  Short people shouldn’t have the same rights as us normal people.  

I'm 5'8" so does that qualify as normal or am I the circus midget I've been told?

I am preparing my excuses if Hurts gets wrecked again by the Cowboys

There just aren't any excuses to lose to the Turds this Sunday.  Divisional games at home have to be won.  If the Eagles expect to have any deep playoff run this season, then this Sunday is, and will be, the biggest game of the regular season.

IIRC, since 2000 only 4 teams that were not division winners made a Super Bowl run:

PIT in 2005, NYG in 2007, GB in 2010, and TB in 2020.

 

A loss this weekend drops the Eagles into a tie for the division lead, sets them up to lose a tiebreaker to the Turds, and would make 7 losses in the past 9 games head-to-head.  The Eagles need this game.

yeah if its still dislocated you obviously need to get it reduced. But the trainer at the football game that was being talked about likely did that.

It looked much more like a fibula.  The bone was out of position to the side.  I don't think the kneecap moved... I could be wrong though.   I didn't check with the trainer.


The bolded is the point though.   Ambulance is for life threatening type situations.  I don't think this guy was in that type of situation.

Oh last night I saw an adult get pushed over and then try to get right back up to his feet. I'll wait for the evidence that this guy was actually hurt. Until then, from what I saw, I dont believe he is hurt at all. 

That's a completely different argument than what you were saying earlier... That he couldn't have been hurt because he didn't take the ambulance to the ER.

Castellanos is paying off today.   :phil:!!!  :towel:

I projected it during my AP class doing a lab.  Only one of the class is actually a fan of the Phillies though.

Huh? What I said is exactly what happened and I included what I believe to be the case that he isnt hurt.

The stuff about the ambulance wasnt that he couldnt have been hurt because he didnt call them, rather I dont believe they would have taken him to the hospital had he called them because I dont think he was hurt.

Going to need a huge effort from the Bullpen today.   They have to stitch together 17 more outs.  😬
