It'd be really cool if you did live or guest appearances on Pats channel to explain in depth and answer questions about topics like this. I think you and Pat would have really educational, entertaining and interesting content.
I concur, I've been dying to make this connection between the two
as cool as it would be, we can’t forget that (as far as i’m aware) Brian is a full-time doctor and most likely does not have any gaps in his schedule where he could preplan a time slot to go on the Pat McAfee show. it would be so cool to have actual doctors giving these types of reports on sports television from now on. so much misinformation gets spread by reporters who don’t know what they’re talking about in a medical sense.
The Pat is constantly talking over people or cutting them off we wouldn’t get a kick of information from Doc. Lmao.
I said this a year ago and the doc replied with “ I have a private practice that would make it almost impossible to go live with Pat because his show is on at the same time as I see my patients.”
Please go on Pats show!
Agent is definitely blaming the doctor for OBJs struggles in Cleveland, hopefully this surgery did go well and he can go back to 1300 yard seasons
He won't be ready for this season until the post season probably and with Cooper Kupp, there's no way he's doing 1300 yards seasons. He's going to be a red zone threat when he's healthy
Nah. Ever heard of derrick rose? Never the same.
@@stansb37 Nick Chubb got it worse in college, and look at him now. Adrian Peterson had a 2k yard season after a knee injury. It can be done, but if you look at how OBJ has been training in the past few years it becomes pretty clear why he got injured. Too many athletes train their legs without strengthening their knees.
@@joalvarado8506 yup I see wym
@@joalvarado8506 Derrick rose tore his acl then as he’s just getting his knee back together he tears his meniscus
I'm glad you went there immediately regarding the first surgery.
His first surgery was done by Dr. James Andrews.
He's literally a rockstar.
One of the best sports medicine surgeons in the history of modern medicine.
That’s the thing about surgeries, especially knee surgeries, sometimes the surgeon does everything right and your body just doesn’t react how it’s supposed to, for example, I tore my ACL, Lateral Meniscus, and Medial Meniscus when I was 14, had surgery to repair all 3, and my medial meniscus didn’t take to the staples in my knee and ended up tearing again. Not anyone’s fault, just the way my body reacted.
@@KDRW-yv9yy exactly.
i'm a physical therapist, deal with a lot of athletes (treated some pros and a lot of college d1)
the fact that they are blaming dr andrews is unreal
I would absolutely love for Brian here to be a sports reporter so we can consistently get accurate information about athletes.
I actually like when our man gets really passionate about something and shows em all who’s boss. I absolutely love his normal breakdowns of injuries but stuff like this the NYC vaccine issue the ncaa player hitting his head the concussions in the NFL it’s fun to see Dr Brian really tell us how he really feels as they say. Usually I prefer sports people to just stick to the playing but Dr Brian is such a calm down to earth guy it’s nice to see him show a little more emotion than usual.
Why do you feel that athletes aren’t capable of doing or being knowledgeable about other things?
@@DOAxGmoneyxx where did he say anything you just said?
@DOAxGmoneyxx I simply said I prefer when I watch sports to hear about the box score great performances and what happened in the game not the athletes opinions. If you wanna hear about politics there’s tons of channels websites and places to consume that type of material. I and many others watch sports for the entertainment value as an escape from the negativity of the world around us not to see the same darkness coming from a different person
@DOAxGmoneyxx now that you mention it you know why people don’t like athletes kneeling or making political statements in game? Because those who support such actions only support it for certain points of view
Drew Brees one of the most decorated quarterbacks in the NFLs history a pillar of NO and someone who helped that city rebuild about Katrina. He doesn’t mention trump Biden liberal conservative simply says I don’t like players kneeling during the anthem I think it’s wrong to demonstrate while our country is being honored. That’s it’s that’s all. The type of reaction you saw you’d think the guy did the Hitler salute. People freaking out screaming yelling I can’t play with him he’s divisive. Really? Kaepernick can wear a shirt that honors Fidel Castro Lebron and others can say cops are nazi serial killers who indiscriminately shoot people for only their skin colors and drew Brees is divisive?
Look at Curt Schilling Aaron Rodgers Hershel Walker Tim Tebow Nick Bosa Colby Covington and others who express conservative libertarian or right leaning points of view. Where’s their “right to speak” why are they not allowed to be “more than an athlete”. That’s the problem people have with that point of view.
You don’t want athletes to speak you don’t want athletes to be heard you want people who agree with the liberal point of view in America to be heard. Now that’s your right this is a free country but please don’t say this is about freedom and people who play sports being more than what they do on the court field etc. anytime an athlete speaks even slightly out of line from the mainstream woke agenda suddenly they are attacked in ways that are seriously disturbing.
Either let everyone speak or no one speak. Either any athlete can say whatever is on their mind without fear of reprisal or just say no one talks. You don’t get to be the arbiter of truth and honesty in America. We’re always told we want a discussion about race about guns about abortion etc yet whenever a view is expressed that’s against the cultural accepted “truth” instead of debating that person it’s cancel destroy ruin Dox their address deplatform fire them. That’s not a dialogue that’s a dictatorship.
Pick a side my man. Pick a side. Either every athlete right left center gets to speak out or no one does. You don’t have the right to say only abc people who believe xyz get to share their views and everyone else can sit down and shut up. Everyone rightfully hates Putin but the left acts a lot like him. Destroying dissent attempting to fire imprison or ruin political speech they don’t like banning politicians who are “radical”. How about everyone is heard and the people can decide what they like and whom they support. Or are you afraid in an even battle of ideas you’ll lose? That’s why you need big brother fb IG YT to delete everyone who doesn’t trumpet your horn?
Think about it bro and get back to me
@DOAxGmoneyxx we didn’t get womens suffrage civil rights legislation the voting rights act ending slavery etc by shoving it down peoples throats. You don’t just go to a group of people and say you think wrong I think right I’m good you’re evil now STFU and be quiet forever while we take over. You want peace and harmony and all of us singing kumbaya? That’s not the way to do it broski.
It’s the reason Iraq the invasion Afghanistan too have not succeeded like they could have. We went in killed terrorists liberated the people and just hoped things would be better. You don’t change a Millenium of customs and ideology by dropping a few bombs and jailing a few killers. You have to change hearts and minds you have to go into the communities
Same thing applies here. You want change in America? You want to affect real things for the future? Then have a REAL dialogue where you LISTEN to the other side. Instead of calling everyone u don’t like a racist a bigot a nazi and the devil incarnate how about the left oh idk talk to people engage in a discussion and let the public decide. You’re not gonna impose an agenda on 350 million people by screaming at them accusing them of supporting genocide and banning them whenever they speak out of turn. Change happens when people talk debate and change public opinion in your favor. We didn’t achieve all the beautiful progress over the years by dictating and imposing we had discussions lively dialogue and worked out differences. You don’t get to anoint yourself God judge your enemies as evil and just erase them from existence. Either listen learn and be willing to be wrong or admit you want mob rule and move on. You don’t get to say you support democracy and free speech while assailing everyone to the right of Stalin as a nutcase.
I think putting all the blame on the surgeon is a load of bull crap.
OBJ was out there with his trainers doing loaded back squats three weeks out from ACLR.
Odell is POTENT that’s why he was squatting so soon 👀
@@laker4life36 muscles don’t make tendons stronger
@@N279 would be relevant if an ACL was a tendon…
Ligaments are definitely more protected, the stronger you are…
@@opap7185 I fail to see how that relates to the proper exercises when recovering from injury. Muscle strength is not important if you are still putting yourself at injury risk due to improper recovery.
@@opap7185 that only applies if the ligament is not injured bro please shut up🤣
Love the commentary. Pat is hilarious, but a little too often on shows like this people throw terms around for entertainment not realizing the impact of potentially misleading statements. I'm sure he didn't mean any harm, but it's great to hear the opinion of someone in the field.
100%. Funny, entertaining guy but definitely a low-IQ mouthpiece.
I also find this really disturbing on the level of seriously you WANT your star player to get hurt? That would be like someone hoping their family member has another heart attack because the last one wasn’t treated right. Who the hell wants that for someone they care about that’s messed up right there
I have had 3 lateral ligament reconstruction surgeries , my second surgeon commented that the doctor who had done my first surgery , had done a very old fashion procedure on my ankle , one that was very out of date , because of the extent of the procedure done . MY first doctor was the head surgeon in my area and had been for 30 years , but it would appear that he was also very set in his ways and like to do things how her learned them instead of moving on with the times . I have had a total of 4 surgeries on my right foot/ankle now , and most of it stems from the fact that the first surgery ended up, really compromising my ankle joint .
Sounds like 100% an agent talking up his client after a major injury, trying to ‘increase his value’
This happened to me personally. I tore my ACL playing college football and the result of the surgery did not go as well as I hoped. My knee felt unstable for the next 5 years. I made it on to a couple NFL teams’ practice squads coming out of college. Going into my second year my knee gave out on me during a non-contract drill. The teams knew my knee was compromised before the incident due to my prior physicals. Therefore, the teams always put some sort of claws in my contracts, so when it gave out on me they weren’t responsible.
Truth is, players just want to play and teams just want to win so I can see OBJ and his team being fully aware of this injury and allowing him to play on it in spite of it all!
Did you do the complete rehab
@@VicDamoneJr82 yes when I tore my ACL in College I did almost a year of rehab before returning to play. Problem was it always felt like it had wiggle room or like the joints wasn’t completely locked in place. So I always knew it was a matter of time before it happened again.
@@justinjackson986 when you know you dont have a fully healtyh knee after the surgery what does that mean? just wondering im six weeeks post op. does it feel unstable no matter how much you workout? does it slip? is it something in the mri?
@@alejandrocastillo8883 ACL,MCL, or PCL once you break them they don't grow back and you will have mental block
If u feel that your knee was not fixed properly (thru no fault of anyone), can you ask to get it redone?
There’s no way this is true… I don’t think he’d put himself out there like that
Right! Like as a guy who had acl and meniscus repaired 4 months ago if I know there’s a higher risk of it happening again I’m not doing it like nobody wants to go through that again and if an org was relieved that it happened that’s a shitty org if u ask me
I think the Odell camp is trying to put out information to look positively on Odell. Instead of signing a guy coming off of a 2nd ACL surgery it sounds like Odell is coming back stronger than ever because his last surgery was mismanaged.
He wants to get paid like a star instead of a guy who just had surgery twice in the last 3 or 4 years.
Dude your videos always help clarify the medical mumbo jumbo and I’m thankful for ya
This is why I wish a consulting surgeon was contracted w/ ESPN to give their professional analysis versus these UNQUALIFIED sports reporters
Those statements seemed to made for ratings imo. But doctor is right in everything he said! I work in PT, having a really good rehab team helps tremendously but also requires large % of the patient to actually listen and follow the treatment plan for best possible outcomes.
That's a very informative and professional way to call out bs. That's also a really good way to do it imo.
Thanks Dr. Sutterer for your common sense commentary. Those t.v. talking heads always have most people (me 🤔) wondering why they talk so reckless. You are a heaven sent. Again ,Thank you Sir.
James Andrews is 79 years old. Hard to believe he's at the top of his game at that age.
Most of the time. The chief surgeon at advance age....... Has like assistants or what I call monkey surgeons do most of the work.....the chief just sign off when OT completed.
i was assuming he did little more than train and supervise surgeries now.
As someone who has had 25 orthopedic surgeries on my calves, ankles, and feet I can say most of my surgeries accomplished what they were intended to do. A couple didn’t but through no fault of my surgeons. How your body heals, your rehab, pain tolerance and following your doctor’s after surgery ‘rules’ all play a role in successful surgerical outcomes. Of course mistakes are made but when the outcome hoped for doesn’t happen, it doesn’t necessarily mean the surgeon made mistakes.
another example of two non medical professionals giving a medical opinion when they have NO idea what they’re talking about. ridiculous.
You are a great colleague for defending your fellow physician, very reassuring to hear and thanks for making this video. Healthcare and healthcare workers shouldn’t be slandered for views
Thanks for spitting facts Dr.!
Who "hopes" for an acl tear so they can do the surgery "right"?? Come on
Great job Doc.! Thank you very much!
Great content, I like how he used a Hip-Hop trap beat during his intro. Even the Jackie Moon Flint Tropics Jersey on the skeleton feels oddly therapeutic. His room has this ability that drains the angst that comes from talking medical topics.
This is why they need guests who are attorneys, physicians, and psychologists to speak on matters journalists and athletes don't really understand
what recording equipment do you use? it's phenomenal
That "two-bit random hack" comment got me 😂
Sound quality is A1 on this video, doc.
Sounds like OBJs camp spinning things.
Would OBJ have pushed himself too far when doing rehab the first time and because of that his ACL didn't heal properly?
Or he just didnt push rehab at all because he didnt like his qb and city.
Also you gotta ask why are we only hearing about this now? It’s always suspicious to me when supposedly horrible things come out months or years later and often times at just the perfect convenient time to achieve some desired result. If it’s so bad then come out say it hey this dude screwed up I’m not happy. Don’t wait years and then leak it or hope it comes out. I’m tired of people not coming out with everything not being transparent and trying to save whatever it is to hit someone with later.
@@hptubez1027 From his videos he put out, it looked like he was hitting rehab hard. Just wondered if he did more than needed or stuff he shouldn't have done.
Sutterer you the goat 🐐 my favorite youtuber 🔥
Amazing content 👏🏻 I don’t know if people truly appreciate how spot on this insight is
Man, I really enjoy your videos
Thank you !
@@BrianSuttererMD keep them coming.
This guys is all-time. I love his videos.
That's like saying "oh we knew the bridge was going to collapse because of someone else's shoddy work, so we're waiting for it to collapse and cause hundreds of fatalities, so we can go ahead and fix what should've been done right in the first place" pure ignorance 😒
From what I understand, ACL repairs can be done differently by different surgeons. They all come up with their own ways of doing the same job, something I'm sure changes over the 1000's of knees they see. The better ones would rise to the top, or in this case - the NFL. This is where OBJ's surgeons may have differed. However, this idea that the 'medical team' and/or surgeon is thankful it re-ruptured is ludicrous!
But these 2 clowns (Macafee and Rapsheet) are throwing Dr. Andrews, the GOAT of surgeons, under the bus, boy they look stupid.
Wow. Assumptions, guesses, innuendo, rumors…internet “experts”. 🙄. Nice job, Doc!
This vid shows the point of view on both sides. Dr. Brian is pointing out that any surgery (especially this kind) is not only dependent on them alone but also the post-op stuff like rehab and how the patient deals with it which is true. Pat's reaction is mainly looking out on a fellow player/athlete which is understandable since an athlete's playing career is really short. The thing is Pat did not realize fully that given OBs status, I am pretty sure that his doctor is highly skilled as well to say such statement.
I'm so confused by this. As a Browns fan I knew Dr Andrews did OBJs first surgery.
If you're calling out Dr Andrews that's kind of a big deal isn't it?
Erickson Lubin's face needs a video
Man it would be super cool to see you on the mcafee show!
Wow great video! First off to me you make Ian, the rams, and OBJ agent look really bad. If you’re correct they look really bad. I love this video though keep it up 👍
If I had to guess, Ian was talking to Odell’s agent. He’s trying to sell his client of course. And just because Dr Andrews is a great surgeon doesn’t mean every single surgery will be perfect. The Rams took a chance and it worked out well. I’m sure all athletes who have MRIs will have things show up. Ian never said they “hoped” he’d tear his ACL just that they were relieved.
Yeah listening to this live made me scratch my head a couple times
I really like how analytical this was.
Hey Doc you're the premier sports medicine analyst out there. That probably sells what you do here short..but my point is that Dr's like you are eventually going to replace the popular journalist (Ie Shefter) when it comes to getting the best information for sports injuries. They can only break news, not analyze it. Anytime I need info on an injury I just search for your vid. You pretty much have the information up immediately ha. Keep up this work!
When you were looking to grow your career, did you look into a fellowship at Andrews Institute? I go there fairly regularly to see my doctor (what's up Dr Kindle?) and I'm always amazed at how great the place is.
Smart doctor wish you were my doctor
Fun fact: Ian Rapoport remains the only sports personality to block me on Twitter and now his face annoys me when I see him 😂.
You are 100% correct! I hate it when people start saying that a person is trash at their job just because of a mistake, they could do a thousand things right and then one thing wrong that happens to be a bit high profile and all of a sudden they are a hack. I've got people at my company who act this exact same way. It's an awful way to think and they just end up loosing good people based on how they treat them.
If I ever tear my ACL again I want Dr Sutterer to do my surgery.
Shout out to my surgeon tho. 9 years from complete ACL reconstruction, it has never failed.
still here watching!
Dr Andrew’s ought to sue everyone who spouted off irresponsibly about this.
Rapoport's comments make zero sense... they actually "hoped" he would reinjure his knee? Then why not perform an operation and dismantle the reparied ACL and replace it with a new one? It makes no sense
Good for you! As a general thing, the reliability of the media is in serious decline in the last decade or so. This particular sports writer is not someone I hold in particularly high high esteem.
OBJ has been much in the news lately as to whether or not the Rams wish to retain him for next season. If they didn’t want to keep him, wouldn’t it be in their best interest to talk about how wonderful the second surgery was, and that he will be “better than ever?“. That would be “building the market“, wouldn’t it?
The ACL, itself, does not have a robust internal blood supply, and sometimes ligaments don’t heal for that reason or heal poorly.
Well he isn’t signed to the Rams, so marketing him doesn’t really help them, unless they just doing him a solid
do they do an mri before they sign?
How about Zak Zinter's injury yesterday in Ann Arbor?
Doesn’t matter how great the surgeon is to some degree either. You are at increased risk for re-tearing the ACL that was repaired. AND it’s not like Odell is just walking around the local grocery store. He is engaging in high risk activity at the highest athletic level humanly possible. Sometimes things just happen and it’s nobody’s fault. Injuries happen. Suck it up and act like an adult. Move on with your life without attempting to ruin someone’s reputation.
Ouu I wanted this. I wondered this outloud on BR if the first surgeon wasn’t it or if it was something different.
Players often play through serious injuries in the interest of the team so it's possible the team knew but didn't want to fix it because that would put him out of commission for another 8, 9 months. I don't think teams are above that, but then they're not actually hoping that it tears, but that they can get away with it not tearing. Until he retires and the bill goes to his personal insurance and not the team's bill. .
Also, as stated, there are so many factors. It probably wasn't a complete failure, like one of the ends is literally unmoored, or else surgery would have been necessarily. So for those outcomes in between total failure and total success it could be the surgeon, the surgeon's PT team, the player's PT team, the player...
That's right, get 'em doc!
This type of stuff doesn't really surprise me anymore in the NFL. It's a cut-throat business where $$$ and winning are prioritized over everything else.
Ian Rappaport is examples of why people who have zero experience in sports or the medical field should be reporting on them. Dude has zero idea what hes talking about.
I tore both of my ACLs , there’s no way i could receive news that my knee was at risk and i perform without a brace , the healing process isn’t easy at all , those aches & pains isn’t something I’m willing to subject myself to again , the mental load is just as exhausting as the physical .. great valid points
Love seeing the nfl treat ACL’s like alternators or mufflers 😂
This just goes to show you the trash reporting out there that we all get informed with. Great video
I'm almost positive that Pat would have you on the show to provide some perspective.
I met Dr. James Andrew the day I became a doctor. I said to him "Thank you for operating on Drew Brees"
How do we know it went well...we won't be really known for months.
It would be like buying a car with bad or no brakes, not fixing them and then totaling your car. Car totaled is thousands of dollars, fixing brakes would have been a few hundred dollars.
Great critical thinking. Hard to believe rams would sign him and put him on field if potentially any play could re-tear/re-injure.
Journalism is dead and people have lost the ability to think critically. We hear what we want to hear, we tell people what they want to hear.
Almost no NFL player is playing at optimal health at that point in the season, yet they all play-which is standard for their line of work and not "crazy"at all. Not to mention the "risk" totally payed off. Obj was lights out in the post season. Also, how should the Rams have addressed the knee initially? Sign a guy to a new contract just to shut him down and make him have surgery? IDK this video was weird. Very informative from the medical side not practical at all from there professional sports side. Just my opinion.
He’s saying if they saw his knee wasn’t structurally sound then why pass him on the physical. All players have to pass a physical before a and signing or trade is official. I’m a Rams fan but if they knew the knee was possibly compromised during his physical but allowed him to play anyway, that doesn’t look good. What’s weird is whoever talked to Rapoport trying to throw the first surgeon under the bus. That can damage a doctor’s reputation unnecessarily
@@jditrev I don't understand what point you're trying to make. They didn't say the knee was structurally unsound, they said they had "concerns". What do you do if you have concerns about a guys health? You give him a contract full of invectives based on production(like literally every player with an injury history). That's what the Rams did and obj played awesome. The risk was worth the tests for everyone
He had a lot of swelling .. tightness .. pain almost as soon as he was cleared to play in back in Cleveland .. Look at his availability and injury reports after ..
You should definitely call RapSheet out for not calling out the bbrawhns doctor.
It sounds like the source for Ian might be Odell and his dad 🤔 😆
Imagine being a Docter and having the word “trash” in your last name
Not to mention the actual Timeline for full strength being close to 2 years post. This is just pure ignorance
My money is on OBJ's agent lying to make it sound like all is now well, and blaming the re-tearing of OBJ's ACL on the first surgery. Dr. Andrews should sue for defamation.
This is probably just Ian regurgitating info from Odell's agent
I love all the faces you froze rap sheet on lol that booze bag clahn
What a interview setting too. What a joke
Definitely gotta be BS. I got cleared at 6 months post ACL & both Meniscus surgery this month and you can feel if you’re good to go or not. He’s got the best trainers and rehab out there. Freak injuries happen, we know what we risk on the field.
Giọng hát của ah Đức phúc hát đúng tâm trạng hay quá
Beckham plays a LOT of PR. And Rappaport has shown he is pretty much a stenographer for whoever agent (in this case) or team source calls him. I think today we recall the Cowboys’ source saying Beckham’s knee isn’t good after that whole fiasco w Dallas. Sadly when you play PR, reputations and details are thrown by the wayside.
Rappaport basically doing Beckham's PR for him, helping him get a better contract as a free agent
This could also very well be a marketing tactic from OBJ's agent. OBJ's a free agent right now after all and so blaming his 2nd ACL tear on the first surgery going wrong would definitely help raise confidence in teams looking to sign him. It also works to dispel the myth going around that his body is getting old (he's had an ankle injury, 2 torn ACL's and a sports hernia in his career). I'm a big fan of OBJ and I wish him the best, but this story seems kinda fishy.
Wonder if you look at success rate and re injury how many high profile clients has that happened of Andrews’ clinic?
Get on the show tomorrow! Hit up pats DM’s
I wonder how much is on the actual surgery and how much on the aftercare. I am sure OBJ did the work he was told to do ... but what if he overdid the work thinking it would help him get back sooner. Or, perhaps he reinjured the knee while with Cleveland and non one knew it until the trade. I think it should also be noted that, if the Rams knew, then shouldn't the Browns have known since he had to be cleared by team doctors who would have also given him an MRI. Makes you wonder how far back the 'conspiracy' goes ...
OBJ and the Rams knew it was a risk for him to play. OBJ been having knee problems.
That doesn’t sound right at all. How did he pass his physical?
Also he could have had a Shaun Livingston type of knee injury.
physical is easy to pass
I'm absolutely not trying to contradict you, but big NFL fans know Dr. James Andrews. I believe for a time he with the team I root for, the Seahawks and doing surgeries for many teams players. He's very well known to big NFL fans as much as say a role player on a team. You always know they can dice you up and make a big impact but casual fans(the majority I'd think) don't know those players. Dr. Andrews has saved many careers and had record turnaround back to field. Whether taking them overseas for platelet or stem cell therapy or just being a master of his craft. I definitely wish they would have gave him the respect he deserves. Maybe Odell didn't follow his rehab schedule properly or came back to early after being traded(or signing, I don't recall). The thing is once your traded your old team Doctor and surgeon may check in but it's usually with the new teams medical staff. I know from experience, limited but still. I mean everyone screws up once in a while but Dr. Andrews has a fantastic record. I remember him always running on the field no matter which team had an injured player and announcers, play by play guys saying the player is in great hands. Pat should have known that. If this is on anyone, it's Odell and The Rams.
How do we (or they) know that OBJ didn't follow rehab instructions? How about addressing his reoccurring injury, that may make any prior surgery look like a bad surgery, when infact it wasn't. There's too many variables to just blame one surgeon or one surgery, when the object of the surgery is being abused daily.
sounds like Dr. Andrews is not just some "fringe" doctor out there.
Another thing to consider is that Andrews is pretty old now. He’s 79 years old. Even when he operated on Odell, he was well into his late 70s. He may have been one of the best Surgeons in his prime. But once you are past 75 you have to think that surgeon is reaching an age where he’s nearing retirement. Surgeons aren’t athletes but imo you still need a certain amount of hand eye coordination to be able to perform surgeries well. By the time you are 75 you just aren’t as sharp as you were when you were even in your 50’s and 60s.
I’m actually glad they didn’t name the Doctor because then he could have sued big time lol
No? Learn basic acl protocol
@@philchickenfingers1190 nah, I’m good
OBJ still a FA, this sounds more like a PR stunt, to address his knee issue to the potential team.
To play devils advocate could it have been OBJ's camp that was pushing the Rams on this. Where they knew it was risky but left the final choice up to him, and he still wanted to play. So the "relief" was now they knew he would get it addressed.
So I’m getting an ACL and meniscus surgery next month… what Graft do you think I should use at the age of 31, and do you know which type of reconstruction surgery Adrian Peterson had ??
