Would you take Hunter's ACL tear...?

[golfballs]

Hunter does not have to pay for it, why should we in this make believe world?

I agree. It would be a more reasonable question to ask if you would take one with the expenses paid for.

Do I have to feel the pain of actually tearing it? Rehab isn't that bad or long (just expensive) so why not.

Have you ever had to rehab an ACL tear??????? :crazy:

 

[VolunteerHillbilly]

Maybe all true orange fans should just take some pinking shears to the front of their ACLs as a sign of solidairty. Sort of like shaving your head when a buddy goes through chemo.

let's get a poll up

In this hypothetical situation, I say that yes you must experience the pain of the actual tear. Really separates the ones that are actually considering this.

It would be tempting if I could go back and be 19 again.

Might have to rethink my position then

I had an interesting thought during class today. Would I take Justin Hunter's ACL tear so that he would be 100% healthy for the rest of the season? Take into consideration the costs of medical expenses and physical therapy, the aches and pains, the inconvenience of the injury, and sitting out my senior year of intramurals...Yes, I'd take the fall....would you?

Hell no. He will get better medical care than I would and he is in excellent shape to physically recover faster than most.

Awesome 2nd choice

 

[onevolfan]

I've never had one, but is it only painful the few seconds or so right ofter you tear it? Hunter didn't look like he was in any pain shortly after that.

This is a good thread. You should appreciate it. Most Vol-related happiness I have felt since approximately 4:00 on Saturday.

Wow, tougher man than me. Good for you, seriously. Always thought rehab was way worse.

Edit: Although shoulder rehab is worse than the knee.

I would make that deal if I could know that we would have at least beaten Florida.

 

[NewToVolCountry]

Uh, no. I have a life outside of UT football.

I lol'd irl

You wouldn't take a splinter to help Dooley.

I think a lot of people already think we would have beaten them if we had him.

 

[NewToVolCountry]

But he'd take a bullet to the face for Kiffin.

He'd take quite a bit to the face for kiffin

 

[Muschump]

If the medical expenses were paid for and he stayed 4 years, I'd consider it.

 

[BigOrange15]

You win.

 

[volfan51128]

yes, I got good insurance...

I have had to rehab from 2 ACL tears and 2 total knee reconstructions. Pain was manageable, rehab was difficult.

But I would switch places with JH in a minute to keep him playing.
