Why are we wasting David Wilson?

As long as he doesn't "Frerotte" himself I'm good.

He was doing things like that at VT


And one to pump up the blood some more

How is a backflip dangerous? How is it anymore dangerous than any player jumping at any point during a game or in a celebration?

You compared it to the salsa. You dont leave your feet ever, and certainly do not do a flip doing the salsa.

I keep worrying he's gonna come down wrong and shred a knee ligament, or his ankle or achillies. He should find a better, safer way to celebrate his TDs!!

**** Button. He says He is a little off on his landings.

How do we know Cruz doesnt twist an ankle doing the salsa?

Exactly, its stupid to be worried about something that would be an absolute freak injury from a backflip or salsa when there are 300 pound defenders trying to drive these guys into the ground every play.

So, you answer your own question? I usually agree with your point of view, this time I wont. A BACKFLIP IS MORE DANGEROUS THAN A SALSA DANCE!! I wont argue this point anymore. You are wrong this time. TC needs to shut it down!

Dont worry, the posters would just blame the trainers anyways.

How? I keep asking this. How is jumping in the air more dangerous than a salsa?

Everyone keeps saying it, but the best they can come up with is "he could come down weird and tear up his leg". Which is total crap. Show that happening to any athlete anywhere ever.

Yes, Gramatica tore an ACL jumping straight up in the air.

Perhaps no player should be allowed to move at all in celebration, that would surely prevent injuries.

We are debating things that are like 1 in a million. Its pointless.

If we are that worried about protecting him from everything why let him drive home at night? Thats far more dangerous than doing a backflip

Slip, you asked and shall get.

So is the argument you are making that no players shall ever be allowed to jump at all in celebration? Because it is far too dangerous?

Still waiting for this list of athletes that have torn up their legs doing a backflip...
