Anyone Else Disappointed The Ravens Won't Play Manning As A Colt Anymore?

32 posts in this topic

My father recently underwent a multiple cervical vertebra fusion, similar to that of PM. I realize my father, age 64, is no longer youthful. But, there are several factors that will limit PM and possibly endanger his livlihood. First, this sort of procedure causes extensive nerve damage. I have found that nerves regenerate at a rate of 1mm per month. This explains why PM is gradually re-developing his arm strenght and coordination. It is similar to re-awakening nerves and muscles that have been asleep. Second, there is no way that PM will be able to withstand more than a few violent hits,if any. His neck if fused, meaning fixed in a set position. The discs in between the vertebra which act as buffers between the vertebra have been replaced with wafers of cadaver bone. Meaning there is no "give" for lack of a better term. IMO any team that signs PM is taking a huge risk and will ultimately regret the decision. He is damaged goods and he should seriously consider how he intends on living the rest of his life. (i.e. as a self-dependent coach and mentor OR as an incapacitated paraplegic)
