Hillis Re-Injures Hamstring
-
Article in PD says some teammates sat down with Hillis Wednesday to vent their displeasure with how He's handeling things...
Supposedly Joe Thomas was one of them... Thought he should have been rehabing instead of getting married in mid season...
It's not the Madden curse, it's just that the whole Madden thing went to his head.. Sort of like the peter principle (you get promoted to your level of incompetance)....
If he's not going to be healthy put him on IR and be done with him... We have some games coming up against the Bengals, Ravens and pittspuke so lets get our ducks in order and have players on the field that can play...
Side note: seems it was Mary Kay that broke the story(s)... I swear she has a love jones on Payton............
Peace

red = speculation
re: "displeasure with how He's handeling things"
i didn't take that from the article at all and i think you're reading into it T Dawg. as vague as it was, it clearly said the subject matter was ALL POSITIVE.
this is pure speculation (as was yours) but it may have simply been sage advice that YOU CAN'T FIGHT CITY HALL and some tips regarding better PR choices to help finesse and spin it back his way while relieving the rest of the team of the constant barrage of "Hillis questions".
considering he's at a tipping point in a contract year and presently a lot of money is stood to be gained or lost (and things are now beginning to look badly) it's highly likely teammates and friends might offer their help right now...especially if he is obviously down in the dumps and may feel like the Head Coach, &/or President, &/or GM seem(s) out to get him. it goes without saying the powers that be are solely looking out for their best interests and not his.
after last year's effort i certainly can't fault him for doing the same, and i assume the "intervention" (bullshit label) involved offering some experience and wisdom in an effective way to go about it.

Gafreleets, I'll buy that...
Seems He's changed 180 degrees from last year...

"seems" being the operative word here. just like it "seems" Mary Kay broke the story, or he "seemed" to sshhrrmmrr like he could probably play vs Miami, or he "seems" like he's faking a hammy etc.
it goes on.
it "seems" to me we really don't know WHAT is going on, and until Hillis has a legitimate public voice we won't know for certain.

This thread is full of assumption.
I don't have a reaction to the Hillis drama until I have information. What's the point of deciding you have a position on this until we have all the information? Either way, we're wrong.
What's the proof that he does not have a hamstring injury? Someone's conclusion that "you're incredibly naive" if you think that?
What's the proof that he's making a move for a new contract? The fact that he had a bad agent? I'm more than willing to give him the benefit of the doubt -- that's the definition of the term. And if you think he "should" have been able to go.. what's your proof that he did not have strep?
Ugh.

Jump to conclusions much? It's just an article designed to get everyone riled up (looks like it worked!). The hamstring injury isn't fake. You can't just accept everything in that article as fact. All of the sources were so vague (this veteran, that veteran) it's hard to take it seriously. I realize Hillis has made plenty of mistakes this year, but faking an injury isn't one of them. He has had hamstring problems in the past. And any athlete knows not playing due to an injury isn't going to lead to a new contract. The Browns want him to prove that he isn't a one year wonder, and other teams around the league won't want to sign him to a big contract if he is injury prone. He has also tried to practice with it a few times and re-aggravated the injury. Read the articles where it tells how he threw down his helmet in frustration after another setback. It would also be extremely hard to fake an injury around professional trainers. Too many facts against your theory..
You are extremely naive.
You are extremely naive.
but how do you fake an MRI, DHBF?
"Hillis had an MRI on Friday, and it showed a significant strain to his left hamstring."

I'm sorry you bought a Hillis jersey. Really, I am. But the guy is just being a douchebag this season, and there's no way you can possibly defend him. It will come out in future weeks that he suffers from Borderline Personality Disorder, and that he suffers bouts of depression, I'm sure. There's just no other explanation.

whatever you say, TCPO. you are entitled to your opinion, as am i.
we have read each other's posts for years. your cynical reply doesn't surprise me a bit...nor does your knee-jerk reaction to journalist spin.

He won't get picked up by anyone else. It has become clear to me he is a locker room cancer. Couple this with the facts that he is always hurt and that he sucks balls spells a crappy rest of his career

He isn't a locker room cancer, wtf are you talking about?
Are you xxxxing Retarded?
Then why did he get traded from Denver for not getting along, and why did the players have to give him a fccking intervention? Lol that's unheard of to me. Sounds like a locker room cancer.

Lick his butthole all you want. I'll take senecas carefully chosen words over yours.

Do you think you can just make sh!t up and nobody will call you on it?
He was traded because a new coach came in and wanted to use "his guy", and because they wanted another quarterback on the roster. The Denver fans AND the other players loved Hillis (except for Moreno, probably).
There was no "intervention". They reiterated that on the broadcast today. That was a team leadership group that meets every week, which Hillis is a member of.
The media has worked their "hit job" magic and performed a successful character assassination on Hillis. And too many fans have fallen for it.

THE CYSCO KID?
you mean the san francisco kid? as in san francisco treat?
wow. you have no clue what football is about.
hillis was great for the browns last year. now he wants money and he got hurt. what do you do as an org? suck his dick when he's not producing and pay him big bucks?
RB is the most replaceable position on a football squad.
hillis is a nice guy i guess (dumb as a bag of arkansas rocks) but what does that get you with a pair of dull scissors at the end of the day? nutin.
exactly. he should have hired a better agent. like OJ did back in the day.
