Lughead Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 Sintim likely out for the year Mike Garafolo: LB Clint Sintim has a ruptured patella tendon. Tough one there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allstarjim Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 Yep, he's done for the year. I think this was the only way Adrian Tracy was going to make the team, unless he was planning on trying out for TE. He still might not make it, though. Feel bad for Sintim, I thought he looked good on Monday night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazedDogs Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 All thanks to a chop block in a meaningless game. So fucked up, I feel for the guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BleedinBlue Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 Poor kid....I feel for him. Hopefully, he's invested the money he's made wisely and can still have a good life. Don't know what his major was in college, but hopefully he took his studies seriously and can eventually put it to work for him. I don't expect he'll get another shot at making the team in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandolphScott Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 Means that Greg Jones, Spencer Paysinger and the Herz are all gonna make the team most likely. That could be next years starting linebacker core. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarence the Blue Puppet Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 Illegal chop block, ruptured his patella tendon and out for the year. I've always been a firm believer in the idea that if you deliver an illegal hit or block that results in an injury to that player, you should be suspended for as long as that injured player is out.

Agreed. Flozel Adams's career would have only lasted about 2 years if this plan were in place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should definitely lead to a suspension, especially something intentional like Auntie Flo's tripping antics. I'm not sure that chop block was intentional but it should lead to a larger fine if a player was injured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrazedDogs Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 Who hit him? I missed the game. I only had it on for a few minutes too, one a shit internet feed. I didn't catch the name, I think it was some nobody intent on ending both Sintim's and his own career with a single play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrazedDogs Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 Chop Blocks are often just two guys not knowing what the other is doing IMO. Hitting a guy at or below the knees is never acceptable, IMO. Even if it is sometimes technically legal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treehugger Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 Hitting a guy at or below the knees is never acceptable, IMO. Even if it is sometimes technically legal. I agree with that too though almost every RB and DB in the game would get flagged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazedDogs Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 I agree with that too though almost every RB and DB in the game would get flagged. LOL. For sure, those guys are my size, and if I had to hit anybody on an NFL field I guarantee I'm going hard at the knees merely out of survival instinct.

JackStroud Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 Not if the hit is deemed dirty. Lets face it Simtim was no great loss.......the guy was a flop that Reese and Coughlin would not admit to I like a lot of the new guys.......one more will make it to the roster now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
