Greg had his thumb operated on.

Tendon that he hurt in the Lindenwood game.  4-6 weeks.

I hope he eats cake and ice cream on the couch for the next two months and puts on 25 lbs.

Well I saw him a couple days back buying more candy than I though was possible for one person to eat at 7/11 so it seems he is taking your advice

Will the bold click baiting bloggers explain why playing him in the NIT wasn't dangerous and dumb?

[fjm]

Fair point above!

PLAYING GREG WAS WRECKLESS AND DANGEROUS:

1) he was recruited as a PG. his thumb is important.
2) he's a freshman, playing him with a bad thumb could have ruined the next 3 years.
3) if we don't trust the coaches and doctors about Hausers hip, how can we trust them about Gregs thumb the WHOLE SEASON!?
4) are we saying that Greg is not worth anything? We are upset about hauser playing and make a blog about him. But Greg? Who cares eh? He's a fresh with a bad thumb!?
5) are there ZERO "doctors" or "physical therapists" or "PA's/NP's" to provide insight on their inside knowledge of orthopedics (bones) to inform us about how playing with a bad thumb (first digit of hand) could increasingly make him worse in the future?
6) those same wreckless dumb and dangerous doctors(that allowed hauser to play), did they check Greg for a Snuff Box Tenderness? What if his scaphoid was broken and now has no blood flow and the bone is dead? Time to amputate hey?


Or:
7) is it maybe actually ok to trust the coaches and doctors?

[4everwarriors]

Eyem a doktor and kan tell ya dat if his scaphoid is da bone involved, he bee up for a graft, immobilization of 3 months, and pt. Pretty much a tuff injury for a baller, aina?

Has he been seen outside Jimny Johns yet with a "hand" boot?

Need to speak my peace on Jimny Johns (sic)... I go occasionally because there is a drive-thru by my house.. but I am consistent disappointed (why, I know what's coming?? nh) by their subs. I get the turkey a lot and it's so bland -- no taste at all. The Vito is OK, but even that is pretty blah. Really, really weak product.

Greg, I thought, understood better his potential and ability at this level as the season went on. Played with great confidence in some of the games late in the season. His blk% and stl% splits were lovely. Hope he's here for all his years... would be comfortable with him stepping up as a senior as a leader... can take it slow for now... but I think it'll be fun to watch him grow as a leader.

Used to Love Jimmy Johns.

But I'm an avid hunter who believes in hunting for meat/survival and have since stopped because of the owners actions of killing threatened species of animals.

So now I do Potbellys. Delish. AND all the sandwiches are toasted.

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

Jimmy Johns is ash on cardboard

[drewm88]

Jimmy John's is fine (get the hot peppers.)
Jimmy John is garbage.

Potbelly is fantastic.

[nyg]

Jimmy Johns is terrible

Jersey Mike's is so much better.

Potbelly is the best.

Love Jimmy Johns, easily my favorite sandwich place but finding that out is certainly disappointing.
