For all the people that speculated HIV or AIDS and all that, hope you feel happy now. This was the biggest overreaction to nothing ever.

Really? When it was a legitimate cancer scare? You seem a little misguided.

Apparently it wasn't. Since he's going to be playing. I'm talking about those that were running rampant with the rumors out there in the twitter-verse that Maclin had HIV or AIDS or all kinds of things before we knew anything. Turns it was a private matter for him and his family that he didn't want known and it ended up being a false alarm. There was no cancer. It was a precautionary measure. Something millions of people go through everyday in privacy. All those people wanting something scandalous to happen out there made me sick during this "story."

Where does it say I'm not happy? I have been saying all along that he's fine and whatever is wrong is his business. Some people are probably sad out there that nothing scandalous happened to him. Doesn't sell when all is well.

Then maybe you should have tweeted your anger instead of posting it here.

Then how do you know about all the rumors going on in Twitter-Verse?BTW, I seriously doubt anyone, and I'll say 100% of everyone that posted possible illnesses on this board, "wanted" any of these bad diseases that somehow jived with his symptoms. Nobody "wanted" the guy to have aids. I was the one that said the rumors in St. Louis was that he might have Lymphoma. Seemed that rumor was pretty close as that was what they were looking for. I didn't want the kid to have cancer. Nobody wanted him to have cancer or aids or whatever. Speculation does not = wanting that speculation to come true. Maybe you should just back away from this now?

Where in this thread does someone say they wanted something serious to be wrong with him? I think you are dead wrong here. The guy was being tested for cancer and you're angry that people are suggesting he may have cancer?

Yeah. No one WANTED anything to be wrong with Maclin. In fact, the thread was started as a simple "Hope the kid is alright and its not too serious" type of posting and, by and large, it received very appropriate responses that showed concern for the man, without any FF implications.In the very first post, it clearly says "forget FF, I'm concerned for the kid" and it simply asks if our Philly locals have heard anything that may put our minds at ease. No one on here is going to apologize to Insein for caring..as it should be.Insein's perception on this is just flat out wrong.

Pst...THOUSANDS of people are diagnosed with cancer every day, and hundreds of thousands more are dealing with it on a day-to-day basis. How many of THOSE people do we "care about as a person"? Stop kidding yourself. If he was not a top-25 WR last year, nobody would give a crap...

Feel free to start a thread in the FFA every time you hear of a person in your regular life who is diagnosed (or may be diagnosed). I'm sure it will fade into Bolivian with 0 replies.

The medical community doesn't remove a person's lymph nodes for "nothing". Evidently there were serious concerns about Maclin's health due to his immuno-system issues and weight loss, so he was screened for a very aggressive and potentially deadly form of cancer. People don't lose 20-30 pounds of body weight when they are young and in the prime of life due to "nothing" unless they are on a crash diet. Happily, it turns out that the worries about lymphoma were wrong. BTW, I do feel happy that Maclin is clear of a potentially deadly disease. And I don't fell one bit repentant about my relief for his sake.MW

I am going to write that off as you are ignorant (meaning uneducated) in this matter.Believe anything you want to believe. be as snarky and crass and cynical as you want to be but you are completely mistaken (and quite a bit full of yourself) if you post on something and act as if you know what another poster's intentions were; especially when they have stated twice that they just wanted to know if anyone knew if the man was ok.The level of how some people can be so insensitive and cynical still amazes me sometimes. As difficult as it may for you to buy into, some people in this world can see a situation going on with someone and, even though they do not know them, can have a thought in their head that they hope they are ok or improve.

so how much will his draft stock suffer?

I would love to draft this guy in round 5 or so of a 12 team redraft. Before his illness, he was a lock to go in rounds 3-4. Do you think that has changed? I think some people may stay away....

Went 5.12 in mine last night. This is a slow draft, so we were into the 5th round when this news came out.

Round 5? I think that's way too early. Until he gets back on the field taking some hits, I'd stay away until at least round 9 or 10.

Lol yes because that is a one to one comparison. Posting an article refering to an NFL player getting his feelings hurt from people on twitter about his play on the field is the same as rumor mongering about life threatening and controversal illnesses for a player. You got me.

your thinking here is exactly what I am hoping for in my draft. I pick 12th so back to back picks. I will take him with one of those at 5/6 round if he is there. if it takes him a couple games to get into football shape, thats fine with me

Postcard from camp: Eagles

Excerpt:

Jeremy Maclin, who missed the Eagles' entire time at Lehigh University, has been cleared to start working out after experiencing a health scare that was feared to be cancer. He tested negative for lymphoma, and passed a battery of tests for other diseases, such as HIV, after he began experiencing weight loss, fever, night sweats and loss of appetite in March. His symptoms are believed to have been caused by a virus, although specifics remain vague even to doctors. Maclin will continue to be monitored by team medical personnel at team headquarters in Philadelphia, and could be ready for the season opener at St. Louis on Sept. 11.

So, the guy was tested for AIDS and Cancer, and anyone who mentioned it here is a rumor monger and/or a bad person..? I'm confused.

I think someone is a bit too sensitive..
