L Arrington Done for year

jcurry3rd · 10-24-2006, 04:14 PM

Just saw on ESPN News Hotlist Arrington's injury from monday nite was blown achilles tendon and will take at least 9months of therapy to get back from it when historically the blown achilles was end of career so we can as giants fans hold onto next season with Lavar tearing off QB's heads

i'm glad GB invested in woodson instead, although he needs to step it up. i would've rather had buchanon. thats too bad, i've always liked watching him play, when he was healthy. and i was upset when THE pack didn't pursue him more this offseason.

How unfortunate for Arrington and the Giants, he looked like he was really getting back in form. I hope he has a speedy, full recovery.

Ouch...

Possibly the most painful injury conceivable to mankind...

I might have to disagree with you on the pain factor here.
A buddy of mine blew out his achilles playing football. I was right next to him. He didn't scream, yell or wince in pain. He just heard a pop and knew that something was not right near his ankle.
It's probably different in each case though.
I'd probably say a traumatic blow to the head hurts more; ala Trent Green or Big Ben.

How about most disgusting then?

When you tear your Achilles Tendon, it curls up like a fruit roll up and goes halfway up your leg.

Blowing it isn't near as bad I suppose, but when I said most painful I was talking about tearing it.

I've ruptured mine before, and it's not too comfortable at all. I can't imagine what a clear tear would feel like - probably not too good.

This is eerily similar to Takeo Spikes' last season, and although TKO returned from the Achilles injury, he hasn't been the same, nor can he stay healthy anywhere else on his body

i blew out my mcl and the kneecap was actually out of the socket made an Awful sound and i passed out woke up in ER with a morphine drip was playing Volleyball at time think a knee is worst.... i only say this cause i had a guy run over the back of my ankle and it was bad but not as much pain as the knee!!!!

madr1000 · 11-05-2006, 05:23 AM

how about a bullet to the knee?

i think that would be much worse than tearing anything. a blow to the head wouldn't be terrible, you just get knocked out, don't remember anything, and have to deal with splitting headaches for several weeks.
