💬 Amid Trump-NFL clash, Alabama players and Nick Saban react to anthem protests

[RollllTide!]

Wow ain't it great that we have a country that we can all live a different perception of what is and what is not. For both sides please understand that politics are local that really matter. Most of us just go to work, make a living, love our family, our country, and God. The rest of this political crap is just elites in both parties trying to manipulate and control us. There is a saying my grandpa would remind me often. "When you argue with a fool, it is hard to tell who the fool is". You can be passionate about a lot of things, and the one thing we can agree on is we all bleed crimson here. Like a brother with a big ole mole on his face and no teeth, he is still your brother. You gotta love him.

Our POTUS tweets because he can. No matter what he says the other side tries to be the twisted sister. It makes me laugh to hear the crap that comes out. It insults our intelligence and godes my redneck ways. When Obama was pres it was the same way. Trump at least bypasses the filters of bias media and delivers it raw and direct via twitter. He likes to bring an issue direct to the people, and he alone started the $hitstorm the NFL is going through. We all know that no player disrespects the military or police that is doing their jobs. They just followed a poor example of how to protest. Hey they are now seeing what a mistake is was. I hope if they want to do something constructive, they need to be like Deshaun Watson and help someone on a local level.

Brothers keep RollllTiding!!!

Sorry man! That blows. As a guy with 2 shit ankles I know how frustrating that is

PS - I hope you weren't old man balling at the Rec Center... Trying to show out... With low cut shoes and no ankle braces, like my dumb ass kids lol

No, even more pathetically covering a football game. Theodore doesn't have steps on the visitor bleachers so you step up on those shitty, wobbly bleachers. I stepped on a bad one coming down and slipped off it. When I hit the concert my ankle rolled completely under me.

Damn, dude.

Rods and screws? Maybe a plate or 2?

Definitely rods and screws, not sure about the plates. Doctor said that they pretty much have to put my ankle completely back together because it has no structure left, pretty much the ball is just floating around in there. Most frustrating thing is I sat in the ER in Mobile for 2 hours without anyone even talking to me. The owner of my paper ended up showing up and pitching a fit that no one had even bothered to talk to me yet and at that point they brought me some pain medicine and that was about it. I finally told them just to discharge me because if I was going to suffer I wanted to suffer at home. Made that 3 hour trip back to Enterprise, sat in Enterprise's ER until 7 in the morning (from midnight). Dont really blame them because there was a huge car wreck that kept them obviously busy, but after i got my X-Rays and everything the doctor told me she thought it would be better if I went straight into surgery and got it done and over with, but the ortho who was on call (pretty much not wanting to "ruin" their weekend) told the ER doctor to just put it in a splint and temporary cast and he woudl take care of it on Monday. Fucking doctors. I'm gonna request the doctor that put my shoulder back together on Monday, though, and stay away from that lazy one hopefully.

I've legit never felt a pain like I did on this one. When I slipped and my ankle rolled I Knew I was in trouble, but I didn't feel anything at first. Then, I looked down and realized my ankle was completed folded over pretty much and started to panic a little bit. I grabbed my leg and when I did it pretty much popped (you could even hear the pop) back into place but it had immediatley started turning purple and swollen into a disfigured looking grape fruit. I guess the EMT's saw me fall and ran over there. I knew I was pretty much screwed when the EMT looked at it and said, "oh Jesus."

Yikes.

That sounds like a 12-week recovery. Hope they scribed you @ least 20 7.5's

10's actually but its not even helping still. Cant get comfortable at all. They gave me morphine when they were setting the stint but it didn't do much good. This is by far the most painful thing that I've ever gone through. Dont wish it on my worst enemy.
