And stick figures weren't meant to be baseline grinders.

Injuries like this were bound to happen; the demands of the modern game are too great for gumby-like physiques to handle.

Med, Zed, and the rest of the slenderman knockoffs are rolling the dice every time they go out on court and run side to side for 5 hours.

People say: "Wow isn't it crazy how agile [Insert Oversized Stickbug Here ] is?"

Absolutely, but as a wise man once said: "You're writing checks your body can't cash."

If any of these players make it to 30+ I'll be shocked.

Discuss.

he's played for years without this kind of injury. so....disagree.

i do think it's ridiculous that anyone still plays with a 1HBH....those guys always get some kind of wrist injury at some point.

smellsburg logic:

because something catastrophic hasn't occurred yet means it never will and we can ignore the underlying risks

my granddad smoked for years and never got cancer

you wanna play the logic game, but you're comparing a professional athlete running to your granddad smoking? ok.
