And though I may not be a doctor, I am a graduate of my university's school of health and human performance; so I insist that you do not pass "the new guy's" rant as one of angered stuper.

Wait, so did your University's "Health and Human Performance" degree include any kind of research into the causes and prevention of sports related injuries? The study or reliance on that research? Practicals in how to treat and prevent sports related injuries? An understanding of what constitutes appropriate treatment/prevention?

In light of this, how can you assert that the opinions of medical professionals is irrelevant and that creating some analytical array for comparing the Skins injuries to those of other teams is impossible? Conversely, you make this assertion but then, in the same breath, say we should consider your opinion as informed b/c you went obtained a degree apparently based on the research and study of those general principals.

I am not a trainer but I played one on TV.
