I've had it with D-Bo and his knee injury. I feel that if you knew you weren't a 90-100% during the offseason, why would you risk playing so early in the regular season. Just say you need more time. I would have rather seen him come in during week three or four or even five, at 90-100%, then come in like he did. I was at the majority of the open practices and spent alot of my time watching him, and I never saw one practice inwhich he didn't limp or favor his weight to one side of his body. Once a great player, now he's nothing.
 
Edgerrin James wasn't himself the year after his knee injury either, and now look at him.
 
I personally believe that Boston's love for weight lifting and "enhancements" has hurt his body. Football players train for strength, not for physique. I believe that body building the way he has done it has hurt his joints...

He was a great receiver... Hopefully he can take the time and get back into playing shape someday. Not as a Dolphin though... :D

With our luck, he will sit out a year and a half, come back as a Patriot, and hurt us!!
 
No one but the Dolphins would be willing to keep tabs on Boston. He's got scary potential considering how he played withe the Cardinals. Maybe a different training regimen can prevent all these injuries. But at vet's min, he's worth a flyer, just let him rest a while, and then gradually bring him back.

This is not news to me at all.

it takes 2 years to come back after that type of injury boston might not be the same player he once was but he can still be a good 3rd guy

Your logic is heavily flawed and I can't believe how stressed out you're getting over somebody elses physical ailments.

With coach Saban you cannot simply "sit on the sidelines" for a few weeks. Saban was already throwin him a bone when he decided to resign him. Boston HAD to prove he was ready to contribute and that he was healthy this season. It didn't happen. His knee wasn't ready. Time to get over it.
