B. Lloyd’s Knee Takes Time To Heal When It Hurts So Much
Two days after we dared to wonder why Brandon Lloyd was still inactive, and would be ballsy (or unballsy) enough to say he’s waiting to be 100 percent, the Sun-Times is putting it out there: the Bears coaching staff is displeased with Lloyd’s lengthy recovery.
Depending on how much stock you put into the word on the street, Lloyd was ready to play last Sunday versus Tennessee, but instead, was sat by the team as punishment for possessing the pain tolerance of a Laguna Beach actor cast member.
But let us not harp on the dude, for he had the team in mind the entire time.
Of not playing versus Tennessee: ”It was better not to go out there and have a setback and not be ready for an important divisional game.”
Oh, because you’re Terrell Owens now.
I think the typical response is to label the guy a selfish wimp. However, if he goes out there, gets hurt worse and then misses the rest of the season, what good is that? From his perspective, his livelihood is at stake if he gets hurt bad, due to not being able to perform at a high level…that costs him serious dough…not saying I agree with him, but put yourself in his shoes for a minute or two before railing on him..
