Cerbaho-WG Posted May 7, 2004 Share Posted May 7, 2004 http://www.baseballamerica.com/today/news/040507allison.html This time it's Jeff Allison of the Florida Marlins. The kid is an absolute stud, but this does not make me feel bad for him at all. The idiot should have known what OxyContin is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Beast Posted May 7, 2004 Share Posted May 7, 2004 http://www.baseballamerica.com/today/news/040507allison.html This time it's Jeff Allison of the Florida Marlins. The kid is an absolute stud, but this does not make me feel bad for him at all. The idiot should have known what OxyContin is. Look, most of the time, athletes do not know what the affects are. Seriously, I know from my reading of National Football League Athlete autobiographies. Example: Brett Favre Great athlete, always burns the Chicago Bears, right? Well he himself had his problems with his painkillers, booze too, and went to rehab. He did not know what affects would take place before hand. Honestly now, this is what I have read.

1549 Posted May 7, 2004 Share Posted May 7, 2004 Personal experience Mr. Most Posts on Soxtalk 16,000 posts takes a toll on the body...in fact, I bet SS2k4 ices his wrists after every game thread. Personally, I actually had to have ligament replacement surgery in my right wrist after typing 40 more posts last season than I did the previous season.

Overusing kills young prospects, just like yourself. It's sad. Sometimes it ruins prospects careers before they get started. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
