Jack Klugman just tweeted that forensics show that the MRI is Knowshon Moreno's ... Case Solved.

I have been less productive at work today, due to this injury news/circus. Maybe Arian Foster was right. Maybe I am sick.

pulled a hammy in the past, not an easy thing to say when it is healed completely, only thing you can do is rest, they can linger for a few weeks
my guess is he sits game 1 and gives it a go in game 2, if he has problems in game 2, it might linger all year
so if that happens is Ward the better guy to own for this year and this year only (non dynasty)?

Foster just tweeted the cold hard facts.

Impossible to know. A regular guy on the street would rest it for a few weeks, but professional athletes operate by their own rules. Everyone knows that hamstring injuries can linger.
I started following Foster on twitter a couple weeks ago and have noticed some really weird ####. He tweeted a link to a "work at home scam" website, the kind you see ads all over popular websites with "your town mom makes $581 per hour" false claims on them (as a professional SEO, I'm way too familiar with the seedy side of affiliate marketing). So I replied to it, with "you know you just tweeted a work at home scam, right?" and he responds (not directly to me but shortly thereafter) with "I put nothing but positive thoughts and energy out here, but look at what gets the attention." Shortly after, the work at home scam tweet is gone.And strangely enough, I can still hit his MRI tweet and the one following it where he says he was joking from my phone but they don't show up on my account from my PCs. Weird ####, he's a goofy d00d.Sitting in the 5 hole for a $200 buy in tomorrow night, I texted 1-4 the link to the tweet. I'll grab him gladly.Somewhat off topicoes noone else find it strange that after this long, the tweets and the photo are still up?I mean, ya... it's been seen and reported on, but wouldn't they have had him remove it?Something seems fishier than even before.

Those tweets still show up on your PC (the MRI and joking), Twitter servers are having issues (I know this for fact). Just let your PC sit on Arian's twitter page for about 10-30 seconds and those tweets will reappear.

Haven't showed up yet but I'm sure you're right...it's trying to pull data from at least one server that never seems to load. #stilltakinghimifhefallsto5

Takes a good 30sec or so then it'll say "2 new tweets".. click it and it'll show up.I still find it amazingly odd that the team hasn't had him take it down.How am I the only one finding this fishy?

Foster spoke the truth.Are you sure you aren't confusing Foster with Chris Johnson?Short Corner

Bruschi and Edwards ruined him.

Bruschi = hook, line and sinker.Bruschi also = complete and utter moron, talking about how he would INTENTIONALLY injure Foster. What a giant #####

I think the point he was making was that there are certain guys in the NFL who will think and act this way once you've revealed to them that you have an injury and where it is exactly."as Im getting up off of a pile, maybe I push, maybe that's where I push to get up, because I know that's exactly where it is...

This is how the game is played Sally. Intentionally injuring someone is head hunting or 'sweep the leg', not pushing up on a guy. Making the MRI public, he just narrowed the target area down."as Im getting up off of a pile, maybe I push, maybe that's where I push to get up, because I know that's exactly where it is...

Perhaps you missed the part where I called the tweet "stupid"?And secondly, are you honestly trying to pitch the argument that "pushing up" or as Tedy so eloquently put it, "digging and twisting" an injured area of an opponent isn't "intentionally injuring"?

NFL players just finished a strike in which they fought for better financial protection and here we are advocating re-injuring an opponent, possibly taking away his ability to perform, and thus his source of income?
3 cheers for idiocy.

NFL players do that all the time...the refs can't call that intention to injure when he's just pushing to get up.Perhaps you missed the part where I called the tweet "stupid"?And secondly, are you honestly trying to pitch the argument that "pushing up" or as Tedy so eloquently put it, "digging and twisting" an injured area of an opponent isn't "intentionally injuring"?

What am I bragging about? I never claimed to be any good. You have to be pretty damn ignorant to think this doesn't happen on every play. Next NBA players who hold jerseys are dirty too.Pretty obvious why the one bragging about his Al Bundy like football career, doesn't play the game any longer.Honestly....yes.

I just listened to Matthew Berry on the radio. He says that he is very concerned now- he thinks Foster will miss the first week, and possibly 2-3. The bigger fear, though, is that Tate will perform so well in the first week or so that Kubiak will go to a time share situation for the rest of the season. At the moment, Berry has Foster 4th behind Peterson, Charles, and McCoy, with CJ moving into the top 3 if he signs this week. But he says he could drop further.
rizzler
Footballguy
The absolute LEAST of my worries is this turning into a timeshare. Tate could rush for 150/2 in the first week or two, and it wouldnt change a thingKubiak has already clarified this situation.
