Date: December 11th, 2017 12:50 PM Author: free-loading fuchsia hairy legs I was just wondering about this. Did oldtimey NFLers have ACL injuries? Just seems like somebody like Terry Bradshaw or Roger Staubach or Jim Brown or OJ just played most of their career without missing whole seasons for ACL tears, etc. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3824858&forum_id=2#34890407) |

Did you ever read his autobiography? The one thing that will always stick out to me was when he said that he squatted 225 for 77 reps. That is fucking unbelievable. |

Date: December 11th, 2017 1:17 PM Author: Slimy old irish cottage I was deadlifting over 300 and squatting over 225 in the time between the tear and having the tear diagnosed. No way in hell could I have played any sporttt though.
My recovery was very fast in that I walked . . . right off the operating table (although awkwardly and slowly). Unfortunately I never made it back to 100%. I still have some instability. I can run up and down the basketball court, jump (although not really with any explosiveness, probably lost 8-10 inches off my vertical). However, as soon as it changes from doing a premeditated athletic "move" to something reactive, it all breaks down. Just can't do it anymore.
Probably the worst thing to happen to me, in terms of impacting my enjoyment of life. |

just a week ago i reiterated this to a friend, and he said, "nah, wentz knows how to slide, he's good about it now, i'm not worried..."

Date: December 11th, 2017 2:44 PM Author: know-it-all hunting ground Flame thread. Tore acl in college and knee would just randomly collapse inward while walking on it before I had it repaired. Had to focus on positioning my leg so that it was straight and forward each step, because if it was angled at all or turning, it would crumple in toward other leg. Granted after a while I built up the stabilizing muscles so that I could walk normally, but LOL at trying to pay a sport involving cutting decelerating, juking, etc, with a completely torn acl.
