It wasn't a spinal injury, however. Just some of the transverse processes were fractured. While calling it a "broken back" it is not as serious as that sounds.

Transverse process is a small bony projection off the right and left side of each vertebrae. The two transverse processes of each vertebrae function as the site of attachment for muscles and ligaments of the spine as well as the point of articulation of the ribs (in the thoracic spine).

While very painful they are not "career ending". No more so that a broken finger. There is no danger to the spinal cord itself from these injuries at all from everything I have read.

Not ball breaking, just curious: Do you Google your medical commentary or do you have a medical background Guido? When you talk about injuries, you talk in nuanced details that a lay person wouldn't normally know.

Just asking.

A little of both. I worked for 17 years with a health insurance company as a business and systems analyst and also with a medical records software department in software development. I have spent many an hour researching clinical data over the years. I've also been dealing with vertebrae issues (facet joint arthritis) personally for the past ten years. My wife is also a RNC and for the past fifteen years or so a medical malpractice claims adjustor. I hear all kinds of stuff from that arena.

I actually asked my spine and back specialist at one of my quarterly appointments specifically about Jameis' injury and he gave me a brief rundown and told me what to look for online.

Lol.

Some people like to mimic things others have said on Twitter or XM radio

and then post it here to sound as if they actually "know" what's best for the franchise and team.

Braggart, egotist type.

Saintfan nailed it.

Yea and how many jobs has this douche had? Every week we hear about another industry he’s worked in that gives him insight into whatever topic we are discussing at the time. I call bull****.

This "douche" has worked his entire life from high school inoculating and pollinating corn for Dekalb Industries in N.C., working with Mayflower moving, working nights at a donut shop in college at NC State, working at the college newspaper (The Technician) eventually as photo editor, photographer for ACC Sports Magazine, photographer for Bossier Press Tribune, freelance photography, managing a tuxedo rental shop, selling cars for Tate Dodge in Shreveport, working in both the photography and accounting labs as an aide at LSU-S while gaining my degree in Accounting, working at Arkla Gas (and other iterations) as a programmer and eventually a Senior Systems Analyst, working at Willis Knighton Health System with the wholly owned subsidiary HMO as System and Business Analyst and at the same time the WK Physician's Network as a software developer.

Is there anything else you want to know about this "douche"?
