My Question

[Charged up]

I was tail gating at the Qual for the 1st time in 3 years.

It was an awesome time. I was front row east endzone. Winning field almost right at me.

My Question is last year now this year it seems we are beset by injuries, especially the O line.

ARE WE SOFT? OR JUST UNLUCKY?

Starting to get frustrated because we have the horses. Gordon is a beast if we could just get him a little daylight. Rivers deadly we all know that. I even posted earlier this year we grade out playing more players at different positions because of injury than anyone.

This is getting old.

Think about it - we have changed, GMs, coaches, team doctors, trainers, and players and it still happens. It must be bad Spanos-mojo.

I don't buy the theory that we're somehow doing something wrong. It's just bum luck.

The new cba has less of contact and more free time. If player living in the SD area have more free time they have more opportunity for bad choices vis a vi carrying for there bodies. Working out eating right ect and less time hardening those bodies and less or no fundamental talking from start to finish.


When I studied Judo you studied falling for the first three years, why would that be?

Either the instructor knew that you were going to get your ass kick a lot and wanted to fall right is free you took a beating

Or

You needed training on how to land ass up for the flying cats?

Seriously

You have a great point. Knowing how to fall is critical. They are actually teaching that in youth sports.

Old instructor, though we were not allowed to do anything but fall when working with other students, they did still teach us all the leverage points how and were to grab and the proper foot movement and in general the passive use of the opponents force to his disadvantage. We were taught these things and then got to see them used properly on us as we learned how to hit the floor without injury.

I saw the older students getting tossed in unimaginable ways and understood why falling is so key to be able to train at a higher level.

The injuries to Fluker and Franklin are from being rolled up on, just can't avoid these types of occurrences. Just bad luck.

[KNSD]

Yeah, Chargers should learn how to fall on their ass correctly. Rookies need 6 week summer camp on how to act like Chargers.

You deserve rep for the flying cat thing.

I don't tend to believe in luck or superstition.

I'm of the mindset that when something becomes a pervasive trend like our injury situation, that there has to be some unifying "diagnosis" so to speak. Especially when it's one particular unit that seems to bear the brunt of most of the injuries. I just don't know what it is. I know we've changed trainers, doctors, etc but there has to be something we're missing.

football causes injuries.....what a concept
