I don't think Andrews would put his sterling reputation on the line to back an overly optimistic stance by the team. I understand he's collecting a fee from the team, but his own business incentive is to retain his sterling reputation as the sports medicine pioneer that he is, so he can continue raking it in from his fundamental business. What he earns from his sports medicine surgical business far outstrips any money he collects from the Redskins; he knows where his bread gets buttered.
Agreed!! . . . This was the whole reason i posted the article in the first place . . . just to show there is reason for the hope that RGIII will be back for the start of the season!! . . . i wasn't trying to start a stem cell research debate, nor anything even remotely close to one.
