No news on severity. Anyone know what the hell hammy tendinitsis is?

sportsinjuryclinic.com[/url]"]What is Hamstring Tendinitis / Tendinopathy?

 

Hamstring tendinitis is inflammation of the hamstring tendon as it attaches to the Ischial Tuberosity. It can follow a tear of the hamstring tendon which is poorly treated or more often is an overuse injury. There are three hamstring muscles, the semimembranosus, semitendinosus and biceps femoris muscle.

Symptoms of hamstring tendinitis

 

* Pain and tenderness at the ischial tuberosity.

* Pain when stretching the hamstring.

* Pain when flexing the knee against resistance.

* A gradual onset of pain following a sprinting session

Thanks for the info.

Ron was convinced that it was a very minor thing.

Tendinitis can usually heal and players can be given cortisone shots to help them play through it.

Hopefully Derosa is tougher than Prior or else we're in big trouble.

[NCCubFan]

Oh, give me a break. There's way too many comments about Prior's toughness to start with. We don't need them to spill over into threads not even about him.

[seanimal]

obviously, it was a joke about that very trend.

Ah; my sarcasm detector doesn't function too well when it's around 2:00 A.M. :D

Either that or my sarcasm generator doesn't work to well. I prefer to think it's the former. :wink:

Somebody tell me how this guy is just a role player and not a hall of famer, or maybe greatest of all time?

Vance is the greatest poster. People on the intrawebs said so.

He does not. It's not like he's trying to be hurt so he can collect his paycheck without having to work for it. And it's certainly not his fault that Dusty abused him in 2003.

Now Dusty is man who deserves every dig he gets. He may have robbed us of a dynasty. He and Hendry.

I won't dispute that.

Then you shouldn't be saying Prior isn't tough either.
