Title: Channing Crowder news, not looking good Post by: MikeO on October 01, 2010, 05:36:09 pm From Armando's TWITTER:
Dolphins coach Tony Sparano says ILB Channing Crowder, not at practice today, is seeing a doctor. Never good news. Last time Dolphins players got the seeing a doctor treatment it was Will Allen and Nate Garner -- both had surgery and are out for the year. Sparano declined to give details of Channing Crowder's doctor visit. "You're going to have to do legwork yourself," he told reporters.

Contrary to a report that Dolphins linebacker Channing Crowder visited with orthopedic specialist Dr. James Andrews, a league source tells us that Crowder missed practice on Friday to see Dr. Bill Meyers, whose specialty is sports hernias. And so common sense suggests that Crowder is being evaluated for a sports hernia, which obviously would cause problems in the groin area.

Title: Re: Channing Crowder news, not looking good Post by: MikeO on October 01, 2010, 06:45:27 pm Im no doctor but I believe a sports hernia is more in the area of the lower gut.

A sports hernia is more technically called an occult hernia. Occult means "hidden", which pretty well describes what a sports hernia is and why it's not trivial to diagnose. Location is not the deciding factor. Title: Re: Channing Crowder news, not looking good Post by: StL FinFan on October 01, 2010, 07:41:02 pm So the difference is that it is not in the same location as an inguinal hernia?

I got a feeling he will be on IR real soon Channing may have played his last game as a Fin Title: Re: Channing Crowder news, not looking good Post by: mecadonzilla on October 02, 2010, 03:26:25 pm Oy.
Just so long as it's not personal. If Crowder's injury is actually IR worthy that's okay...it happens, but Ireland may be getting a reputation as someone that's hard to deal with. The Dolphins need ILB help next to Dansby. Dobbins and Carpenter are backups and not full time solutions. I'm keeping 2 fingers crossed hoping Crowder will be back ASAP. Title: Re: Channing Crowder news, not looking good Post by: MikeO on October 03, 2010, 09:17:04 pm Dobbins has been awful this year. No wonder SD was willing to give him away for nothing
