I will get blasted for this, but Al Wilson is overrated and sat out with an “injury” during the most important season in Modern Tennessee football history. Real leaders don’t keep theirselves on the sideline like that. Real leaders don’t have that constant “look at me I’m a leader” attitude.
Taylor has a good season playing on a freakin broke leg and Toto played his senior season of football with a broken foot. Meanwhile, Al abandoned his team and spent most of the season drinking Gatorade from the best seats in the house for free. He did the same in the NFL. Sorry , but he is full of BS.
Why would you expect to get blasted?
My son broke both bones in his right wrist, could not function. When he broke his left arm he was calm, cool and collected when he told me it was broke. Every break is different.
My foot was hurting so I went to the Dr. the X-ray said my 4th medal tarsal(Foot bone to ring toe.) was broke. He ask how the other break was treated, I wasn’t aware of the other one. He asked if I was some kind of a tough guy. I didn’t have a good answer at the time, but I guess the answer is, “Obviously.”.
When I dislocated my shoulder playing basketball, there was no doubt in my mind my situation at the time had to change. On the way home we stopped at the ER to get checked out. While adjusting my arm for the X-ray, my shoulder slid back in place. All pain was gone, I was back in business. Wrong! Sure, I left the ER, with no bill. When I got back to my truck and was driving myself home I reached up either to scratch my head or test my shoulder, bam, it jumped back out causing my neck to spasm throwing my head back to the rear glass of my truck. Once again, dislocated. When I made it home I adjusted my arm the same way I did at the ER with the same results, my shoulder slid back in place. So now I do things different to avoid that pain again. It’s my bad shoulder. Nothing rotator cuff surgery shouldn’t be able to fix. Whose got time for that?
Wasn’t Al’s injury a dislocated shoulder?
Teammates have every right to get in the ear of their teammates, even if they haven’t played a perfect game.
Overrated? You need to come up with a better reason than how he handled injury to validate that point. If it wasn’t his shoulder, I’m sorry I wasted your time.
